NBC's TODAY was the number-one morning show outright, topping ABC's "Good Morning America" in total viewers and all demos last Monday, its best delivery since 11/9/16 (morning after presidential election), and its biggest non-Olympic win over GMA in more than five and a half years, since 2/6/12. *Please note, TODAY was retitled Monday due to extended coverage of the tragedy in Las Vegas, and that day is not included in the weekly averages.

For the week, TODAY was the number-one morning show in the key demo A25-54, marking 93 straight weeks in the top spot (109 of the last 110 weeks), its best streak in more than five years.

Additionally for the week, MEGYN KELLY TODAY at 9 a.m. posted 2.2 million total viewers and 642k key demo viewers. TODAY with Kathie Lee and Hoda at 10 a.m. posted more than 1.6 million total viewers and 519k key demo viewers.
