ABC's "Dancing with the Stars" and NBC's "The Voice" both suffered another week of declines thanks to the return of CBS' sturdy comedies, but ABC retained its hold on Monday night overall, while NBC continued to rule in the key demographic.
For the night, NBC averaged a 3.3 rating among adults 18-49, edging out CBS' 3.1 rating in the key demographic. ABC was third with a 2.4 rating, while FOX averaged a 2.1 rating for fourth. The CW's 0.5 key demo rating trailed.
Overall, though, ABC averaged an estimated 12.96 million viewers to go with an 8.5 rating/13 share for Monday night.
