Ratings: The Voice, Hawaii Five-0 Rise; Mob Doctor, Partners Struggling
Rudy Parris
NBC cruised to another Monday win with two more strong performances from The Voice and Revolution.
The Voice was the top show of the night, averaging 12.3 million viewers and a 4.5 in the adults 18-to-49 demographic, growing a tad from last week. Revolution (8.4 million, 3.2) dropped just 6 percent.
Fellow freshman series The Mob Doctor fared nowhere near as well on Fox, plummeting to a meek 3.5 million and a 1.0. Lead-in Bones (6.9 million, 2.1) was down two-tenths.

CBS' Hawaii Five-0 (7.7 million, 1.9) was the only other show besides The Voice to see a demo gain, rebounding from a series low to climb one-tenth. The network's returning comedies performed decently, but new comedy Partners (5.7 million, 2.1) shed almost 1 million viewers and dropped three-tenths in the demo.
On ABC, Dancing with the Stars (12.2 million, 2.0) slid 20 percent to hit an all-time low, while Castle (10.3 million, 1.9) fell two-tenths. ABC, however, won the night in viewership.
