· A rebroadcast of Sunday's "Crisis" premiere (0.7/3 in 18-49, 3.9 million viewers overall from 10-11 p.m. ET) tied for #2 in the hour among ABC, CBS and NBC in adults 18-34, 18-49 and 25-54, behind only basketball-boosted CBS. From half-hour to half-hour, the "Crisis" encore maintained or increased its rating in every key demo, despite the 10 p.m. hour, including gains of 14% in adults 18-49 (to a 0.8 rating from a 0.7), 25% in adults 18-34 (0.5 vs. 0.4) and 10% in adults 25-54 (1.1 vs. 1.0).

· NBC finished #2 among the Big 4 networks Saturday night behind only basketball-boosted CBS in adults 18-49 and all other key measure, excluding women 25-54, where NBC currently runs #1 among those nets, pending updates.

In Late-Night Metered-Market Household Averages for Saturday Night:

· An encore telecast of "Saturday Night Live," with host Jonah Hill and musical guest Bastille, averaged a 2.9/7 in household results in Nielsen's 56 metered markets and a 1.2/5 in adults 18-49 in the 25 markets with Local People Meters, making it the #1 non-sports telecast of the night on the Big 4 networks in 18-49 rating in the Local People Meters ahead of all primetime entertainment programs on the Big 4 networks.
