TBS

Winning first quarter wasn't enough for TBS. The network plunged into Q2 with another big win as basic cable's #1 network in primetime among adults 18-34 and adults 18-49.

TBS didn't just win the demos, it crushed the competition, delivering 26% more adults 18-49 and a whopping 46% more adults 18-34 than its second-place rivals.

The Big Bang Theory shows no signs of slowing down as the show once again dominated the charts, claiming all 10 of basic cable's Top 10 sitcom telecasts in total audience delivery and nine of the Top 10 with adults 18-34 and adults 18-49. Five of The Big Bang Theory's episodes on TBS last week drew more than 3 million viewers.

The show also averaged 381,000 adults 18-34 (+4%) and 680,000 adults 18-49 (+2%).
