The NCAA Tournament cam to a close with the return of the title game to CBS after a year on TBS. The close North Carolina-Gonzaga game was up from last year's TBS airing with a strong 23.0 million viewers and 7.1 demo. It was down from the last CBS airing two years ago though, which delivered 28.3 million viewers and a 9.1 demo. The competing networks were dinged but held up OK. On ABC, Dancing with the Stars was down six tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo, tying a series low in the latter category. I think it'll pop back up next week. Quantico was down two tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. On NBC, The Voice was down six tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo while Taken was down three tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo for a weak 0.8 demo. Finally on FOX, 24: Legacy was even in viewers and down a tenth in the demo while APB was down two tenths in viewers and even in the demo.

WINNER OF THE NIGHT: NCAA Tournament Championship (CBS)
LOSER OF THE NIGHT: Taken (NBC)
