"The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" and "Late Night with Seth Meyers" have dominated the late-night ratings week of March 14-18, topping their ABC and CBS time-period competition in all key categories - adults, men and women 18-34, 18-49 and 25-54, plus total viewers.

For the week, Fallon beat Kimmel in adult 18-49 rating by a +52% advantage (with a 0.85 rating vs. a 0.56) and Colbert by a +60% margin (0.85 vs. 0.53). Note that Friday's Kimmel was an encore and CBS's Thursday and Friday telecasts were delayed by NCAA BASKETBALL overruns and are excluded.

Versus the same week last year, Meyers grew +5% in 18-49 rating (0.44 vs. 0.42) and +8% in total viewers (1.559 million vs. 1.443 million).

At 1:35 a.m. ET, "Last Call with Carson Daly" grew +17% versus the same week last year in 18-49 (0.28 vs. 0.24) and +11% in total viewers (856,000 vs. 770,000).
