David Letterman and “The Late Show” may enjoy being the lone comedy act at 11:35, for now, but ABC’s “Nightline” is also enjoying one less competitor after the late local news.
Year-to-year, “Nightline” is up 9% among Total Viewers and the A25-54 demo. Last week, the ABC News program drew its largest A25-54 audience in over a year.
The numbers for the week of Feb. 1:
| Show | Network | A25-54 | A18-49 | Total Viewers |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Late Show | CBS | 1.85M | 1.48M | 4.04M |
| Nightline | ABC | 1.78M | 1.44M | 4.04M |
| Tonight Show | NBC | 1.26M | 1.15M | 2.12M |
