In such key categories as total viewers and adults 25-54, "Tonight" delivered bigger audiences than CBS's "Late Show with David Letterman," while also out-delivering the hour's combined ABC competition of "Nightline" and "Jimmy Kimmel Live" in every key ratings category.

At 12:35 a.m. ET, "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" delivered bigger audiences than CBS's "Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson" and ABC's "Kimmel" in adults 18-49, total viewers and other key categories. For the week, "Late Night" averaged a 0.5/3 in 18-49 and 1.7 million viewers overall.

Through the first 23 weeks of the season, "Tonight" has increased its total-viewer margin over "Late Show" to 14 percent (3.774 million vs. 3.320 million), up from the year-ago season-to-date advantage of 8 percent. Jimmy Fallon has established a total-viewer lead over "Late Late Show" this season of 17 percent (1.821 million vs. 1.557 million), up from last year's advantage of 0.4 percent.
