For the week, Fallon beat both CBS's "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" and ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live" in adult 18-49 rating by an +84% advantage (with a 0.81 rating vs. a 0.44 each for Colbert and Kimmel).

Meyers pulled within just 0.01 of a rating point of both Colbert and Kimmel in adults 18-49 (with a 0.43 rating vs. a 0.44 for Colbert and Kimmel) and tied both those 11:35 p.m. shows in men 18-49 (0.40 each).

Week to week, Meyers was up +8% in adults 18-49 (0.43 vs. 0.40) and, at 1:35 a.m. ET, "Last Call with Carson Daly" grew +4% (0.26 vs. 0.25) to a four-week high (best since the week of April 4-8, 0.26).

Season to date, Fallon and Meyers have outdelivered their ABC and CBS time-period competition for 35 of 35 weeks in both adults 18-49 and total viewers.
