Saturday Primetime Results:

At 10 p.m. ET, a rebroadcast of "Saturday Night Live," with host and musical guest Miley Cyrus, (0.9/3, 2.5 million viewers overall) earned the top 18-49 rating for an "SNL" encore in this slot among three telecasts so far this season and is also the highest-rated "SNL" rebroadcast in the 10 p.m. time period dating back to April 20.

From its first half-hour to its second, the 10 p.m. "SNL" encore grew in all key ratings categories, including gains of 13% in adults 18-49 (to a 0.9 rating from a 0.8), 33% in adults 18-34 (0.8 vs. 0.6) and 17% in total viewers (2.7 million vs. 2.3 million).
