RATINGS BREAKDOWN
Lifted by a one-hour edition of "The Voice," NBC dominated this second Monday in December and offered ample lead-in support to the season premiere of "The Sing-Off." "The Voice" opened with an 8.5 rating/13 share in the household overnights from 8-9 p.m., which topped the evening and led into a 5.5/9 for the two-hour return of "The Sing-Off" from 9-11 p.m. Comparably, that 5.5 rating was 57 percent above the "The Sing-Off's" most recent season-opener, which was a 3.5/5 on Monday, Sept. 19, 2011 (and at the time faced opening season night on the competing networks.) Half-hour overnight breakdown for "The Sing-Off": 5.5/9 – 5.6/9 – 5.1/8 – 4.7/8.
CBS finished a distant second overall with combination of repeats of "How I Met Your Mother" (#4: 3.3/5) and "2 Broke Girls" (#3: 3.4/5,) an original installment of "Mike & Molly" (#2: 5.2/8,) an encore of "Mom" (#3: 3.9/6,) and another burn-off episode of failing freshman drama "Hostages" (#3: 3.4/6). As a reminder, upcoming drama "Intelligence" will premiere in its regularly scheduled Monday 10 p.m. time period on January 13. A special preview will air on Tuesday, January 7 out of "NCIS" at 9 p.m. ET.
ABC, meanwhile, finished just one-tenth of a rating point behind CBS overall with its line-up of a repeat of annual animated special "Santa Claus is Comin' to Town" (#3: 3.6/6,) original special "The Great Christmas Light Flight" (#4: 3.6/6,) and an encore of "Castle" (#2: 3.5/6.)
Elsewhere, FOX dramas "Almost Human" and "Sleepy Hollow" scored an identical 4.3/7 in the overnights (but "Sleepy Hollow" will rate higher in the key young demos.)
And The CW populated the night with repeats of animated half-hours "Kung Fu Panda Holiday Special" (#5: 0.8/1) and "Merry Madagascar" (#5: 0.7/1) from 8-9 p.m., and original special "The One Direction iHeartRadio Album Release Party," which bombed at a mere 0.4/1 (#5) from 9-10 p.m (629,000 viewers.)
