NBC's Jimmy Fallon & Seth Meyers Take the Week of 4/4 in All Key Categories

NBC's "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" and "Late Night with Seth Meyers" have delivered dominant victories for the late-night ratings week of April 4-8, outscoring their ABC and CBS time-period competition in every key measure - adults, men and women 18-34, 18-49 and 25-54, plus total viewers. Note that CBS's late-night shows excluded their Thursday and Friday results due to delayed start times and ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live" aired encores for the week.

Versus the prior week, Fallon was up +6% in adults 18-49 (with a 0.89 rating vs. a 0.84 for March 28-April 1), Meyers grew by +7% (0.44 vs. 0.41) and "Last Call with Carson Daly" gained +4% (0.27 vs. 0.26).

For the week, Fallon beat ABC's "Kimmel" encores in adult 18-49 rating by a +107% advantage (with a 0.89 rating vs. a 0.43) and CBS's first-run "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" by an +82% margin (0.89 vs. 0.49).

Meyers generated a +42% margin in 18-49 over CBS's "Late Late Show with James Corden" (0.44 vs. 0.31) and a +63% advantage over ABC's "Nightline" (0.49 vs. 0.30 in their 12:30-1 a.m. head-to-head half-hour).

At 1:35 a.m. ET, "Last Call with Carson Daly" grew +8% versus the same week last year in 18-49 (0.27 vs. 0.25) and +5% in total viewers (858,000 vs. 818,000).

Season to date, Fallon and Meyers have outdelivered their ABC and CBS time-period competition for 29 of 29 weeks in both adults 18-49 and total viewers.
