Boosted by Disney Night on DANCING WITH THE STARS, ABC was the most watched network on Monday (8.4 million) and ran a strong 2nd in Adults 18-49 (1.3/5) to "The Voice"-led NBC. "Dancing" stood as Monday's most watched TV show overall (11.0 million) and caught NBC's "The Voice" as the night's top-rated show in Adults 18-34, Women 18-34 and Teens 12-17. "DWTS" was also the night's No. 1 broadcast with Kids 2-11 and hit a season high in the process.
"Dancing with the Stars" (8:00-10:00 p.m. - 11.0 million and 1.7/6 in AD18-49):
From 8:00-10:00 p.m., ABC's "Dancing with the Stars" qualified as Monday's most-watched TV series for the 5th week in a row, outdrawing NBC's "The Voice" by a best-of-season 1.6 million viewers in the 2-hour slot (11.0 million vs. 9.4 million). "Dancing" narrowed its margin with "The Voice" to 3-tenths in Adults 18-49 (1.7/6 vs. 2.0/7) to match its closest finish this season with the
NBC unscripted show.
"Dancing" grew week to week in Total Viewers (+7%) and Adults 18-49 (+6%), equaling a best-since-premiere rating in young adults.
"Quantico" (10:00-11:00 p.m. - 3.1 million and 0.6/2 in AD18-49): At 10:00 p.m., ABC's "Quantico" gained 19% week to week in L+SD Total Viewers (3.1 million vs. 2.6 million) and held even with Adults 18-49 (0.6/2).
Live + 3 for Last Week's "Quantico" Telecast (4/10/17): Last week's telecast of "Quantico" shot up +67% in Adults 18-49 after just 3 days of TV Playback (0.6 rating to 1.0 rating), making it last Monday's top broadcast gainer from L+SD to L+3. In overall Live + 7 Day Adult 18-49 ratings, "Quantico" is the season's No. 2 biggest gainer in TV playback to only ABC's "Designated Survivor" among the broadcasters, shooting up by +114% over its L+SD average.
Projections Rationale: Lifts vs. L+SD are based on the 2016-17 season for premiere telecast or an average for originals (excluding the premiere).
Returning shows: Profile based on same show (either premiere or averages for originals). New Series: Based on similar series.
