"The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" and "Late Night with Seth Meyers" have dominated the ratings week of Oct. 24-28, outscoring 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.

Fallon outrated CBS's "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" by an +80% margin in adult 18-49 rating (with a 0.83 vs. a 0.46) and topped ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live" by +69% (0.83 vs. 0.49), despite Kimmel's boost from a Monday guest appearance by President Barack Obama.

It's Fallon's biggest margin of victory over Colbert so far this season and biggest advantage over Kimmel in four weeks, since a +72% margin for the week of Sept. 26-30 (0.86 vs. 0.50).

Meyers beat CBS's "The Late Late Show with James Corden" by a season-high +52% (0.44 vs. 0.29) and outscored ABC's "Nightline" in their head-to-head half-hour from 12:30 to 1 a.m. ET by +47% (0.50 vs. 0.34 for that half-hour).
