NBC Ties for No. 1 for Primetime Week in Key 18-49 Demographic

NBC has tied for #1 for the ratings week of April 10-16 in primetime's key demographic of adults 18-49, according to "live plus same day" viewing figures from Nielsen Media Research.

"The Voice" also finished #2 for the week in adults, men and women 25-54 and #1 among kids 2-11.

Joining Monday's "Voice" in the week's top 30 primetime programs on the Big 4 networks were Tuesday's "Voice" encore recap (tied for #6), Thursday's "Chicago Med" (tied for #14), Sunday's "Chicago Justice" (tied for #26) and Tuesday's 9 p.m. edition of "Trial & Error" (tied for #26).
