ABC's DANCING WITH THE STARS Moves to No. 1 in Time Slot

Building from start to finish in viewers (+12%) and young adults (+10%) in the 8pm hour against NBC's The Voice, ABC freshman Splash drew more viewers than Fox's Hell's Kitchen (+13%) for the 5th week in a row.

Growing week to week in Total Viewers (+3%) and Adults 18-49 (+5%), ABC's DWTS: The Results Show moved up to #1 during the 9 o'clock hour on both measures. D.L. Hughley was the fourth celebrity to leave the competition this season. In addition to increasing over the prior week, the ABC dancing results program was up over its comparable fourth telecast of Season 15 in Adults 18-49 (+5%).

For the 4th consecutive Tuesday, ABC's Body Of Proof stood as the most-watched TV show in the 10 o'clock hour, topping CBS' first-run Golden Boy by 1.1 million viewers and more than tripling the second hour of NBC's Ready for Love (+221%).
