-Ratings Breakdown:
ABC, once again, opened the week on a winning overnight note care of its combination of two-hours of “Dancing With the Stars” and “Castle.” But the 9.6 rating/15 share for “Dancing With the Stars” from 8-10 p.m. was 19 percent below the 11.8/18 on the year-ago night. And an 8.1/12 for competing “The Voice” will be more than enough for NBC to hold a huge advantage among adults 18-49 (not to mention other young adult demos) for the evening. Year-to-year, “The Voice was up by 35 percent in the overnights.

Tops at 10 p.m. was “Castle” on ABC with 7.2/12 (- 9 percent from the year-ago evening), followed by “Hawaii Five-O” on CBS (5.2/ 9: -27 percent) and Revolution on NBC (3.8/ 6), which dipped by 54 percent from the 9:30 p.m. portion of “The Voice” (8.2/12). Had it not been for the lead-in support from “The Voice,” “Revolution” would not be the hit NBC would like you to believe. Yes…lead-in still matters.

The hefty percent loss for “Hawaii Five-O” was a result, of course, of CBS’ deteriorating 8-10 p.m. sitcom block. Demo favorite “How I Met Your Mother” (#3: 4.9/ 8 at 8 p.m.) only slipped by six percent year-to-year. But “Rules of Engagement” (#4: 3.9/ 6: -34 percent from year-ago occupant “2 Broke Girls”), “2 Broke Girls” (#3: 5.3/ 8: -27 percent from “Two and a Half Men”) and “Mike & Molly” (#3: 5.2/ 8: -20) from 8:30-10 p.m. were all down by double-digits. At this point, there is no reason to believe perennial benchwarmer “Rules of Engagement” will be back next season.

In season-finale news, Fox’s combination of “Bones” (#4: 4.7/ 7) and “The Following” (#4: 5.1/ 8) remained respectable players, with “The Following,” in particular, up by 19 percent from year-ago occupant “House” (4.3/ 6 on 4/30/12).

The CW capped off the evening were a mere 0.5/ 1 in the overnights for both game show “Oh Sit!”
and soon-to-conclude “90210” from 8-10 p.m. Comparably, that was a loss of an average 55 percent from year-ago occupants “Gossip Girl” and “Hart of Dixie.”
