Ratings: Broadcast Finals for December 17, 2013

CBS and NBC were the only two networks airing original episodes on Tuesday night and they split leadership between the two reported categories.

NBC took the A18-49 crown as THE VOICE season finale drew it's biggest audience since early October and it's best demo rating since just before Halloween. It was easily the top program in the A18-49 ratings, but was just the 3rd most watched program of the night. With THE VOICE done until March and SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL ending this week, January will be a tough stretch for NBC, until the Winter Olympics in February.
