"The Voice" is running within 7% of last week's 2.9 in 18-49 in these preliminary fast-national ratings and within 10% of last week's 3.0 in official nationals. "The Voice" grew substantially from half-hour to half-hour in all key measures, including a gain of +12% in adults 18-49 (to a 2.8 rating from a 2.5).

· "The Voice" is winning the time period in 18-49 among the Big 4 nets by a +50% margin (2.7 vs. a 1.8 for ABC's second-place "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.").

· "About a Boy" (1.9/6 in 18-49, 7.2 million viewers overall from 9:01-9:31 p.m. ET) is currently up +6% week to week in 18-49 (to a 1.9 from a 1.8), making this the second straight week "About a Boy" has generated week-to-week growth in 18-49 and total viewers, pending updates. Versus two weeks ago, "Boy" is up +12% in 18-49 rating (1.9 vs. 1.7). In total viewers, "About a Boy" is currently up +2% versus one week ago (7.157 million vs. 6.992 million) and up +4% versus two weeks ago (7.157 million vs. 6.866 million).

· "Growing Up Fisher" (1.5/4 in 18-49, 6.0 million viewers overall from 9:31-10 p.m. ET) is currently at a four-week high in total viewers (best since March 25) and is maintaining its 1.5 rating in 18-49 for a third week in a row, pending updates. "Growing Up Fisher" is #1 in the time period among the Big 4 in adults 18-49 and other key demos.

· An encore telecast of "Chicago Fire" (0.9/3 in 18-49, 4.3 million viewers overall from 10-11 p.m. ET) tied ABC's original "Celebrity Wife Swap" for #2 in the slot among ABC, CBS and NBC in adults 18-49. In the time period, the "Chicago Fire" rebroadcast tied for #1 in adults 18-34 and women 18-49 and ranked #1 outright among those nets in women 18-34.
