As usual, “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” led in the late-night ratings for the week of Sept. 11-15, 2017, despite taking a major hit from its numbers last week. The NBC series fell from its previous 0.74 to a 0.58 rating in adults 18-49 this time around. Meanwhile, “Late Night with Seth Meyers” experienced a similar decrease from last week’s 0.41 to a 0.34, also on NBC.
ABC’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” held steady with a 0.44 for the second week in a row but hit a three-month high in viewers. “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” took the week off, resulting in the CBS series falling noticeably from a 0.42 to a 0.32. “The Late Late Show with James Corden” did not take the week off, however, and managed to maintain a 0.23 once again.
In cable, TBS’ “Conan” scored a 0.20, after its ratings were pre-empted last week. “The Daily Show with Trevor Noah” rose from a 0.27 to a 0.33 on Comedy Central.
