Leno Matches Conan’s Tonight Show Ratings Trend, Beats Letterman Again

Posted on 13 May 2010 by Bill Gorman


Jay Leno’s Tonight Show drew a 1.1 adults 18-49 rating last week (May 3-7), the same rating as Conan O’Brien’s Tonight Show in the tenth week of each show’s run. There has been little difference between the two show’s ratings trends since week 5 of their run’s.

I need to try and figure out how to convey this well in the chart, but readers should note that 10 weeks into “Conan (2009-10)” was the first week of August, 2009, the absolute nadir of the broadcast TV year, but 10 weeks into “Leno (2010-)”, is still during the main broadcast season.

David Letterman’s Late Show moved up a tenth of a point in the adults 18-49 ratings vs. the previous week, but was again beaten by the Tonight Show as it has been each week since Jay returned.
