-Ratings Breakdown:
It was another Monday overnight victory for ABC, but NBC, of course, will win the evening among adults 18-49 (and other young adult demos) thanks to "The Voice." Third overall was CBS, which is no longer the Monday force it once was, followed by Fox and lowly The CW, which featured the DOA return of game show "Oh Sit!"

"Oh Sit!" opened season two with a miniscule 0.6 rating/1 share in the overnights at 8 p.m., which year-to-year dipped by 40 percent from former time period occupant "Gossip Girl" (1.0/ 1 on 4/16/12). One week earlier, "The Carrie Diaries" concluded for the season (or series) with 0.9/ 1 on April 8.

Leading out of "Oh Sit!" was the return of soon-to-conclude "90210" at a very last-place 0.5/ 1 at 9 p.m.

Tops for the evening in the overnights, as usual, was "Dancing With the Stars" on ABC with a 9.7/14 from 8-10 p.m. But, year-to-year, that was a loss of 19 percent (versus a 12.0/18 on 4/16/12). Competing "The Voice" on NBC, in contrast, rose to an 8.8/13 from 8-10 p.m., which built by 40 percent from the 6.3/ 9 on the year-ago evening. And "The Voice's" advantage among adults 18-49 will be significant.

Leading out of "Dancing With the Stars" on ABC was "Castle" at a dominant 6.9/11 in the overnights at 10 p.m. Competing was an NBC News special on the tragic bombings in Boston (#2: 5.6/ 9), followed by "Hawaii Five-O" on CBS at a 5.2/ 8.

Earlier in the evening on the Eye net was its comedy rotation of "How I Met Your Mother" (#3: 5.1/ 8), which officially concludes next season, "Rules of Engagement" (#3: 4.5/ 7), "2 Broke Girls" (#3: 5.4/ 8) and compatible "Mike & Molly" (#3: 5.4/ 8). Capping off the evening was Fox with its consistent combination of "Bones" (#4: 4.4/ 7) and "The Following" (#4: 4.5/ 7), which have both already been renewed for next season.
