NEW YORK - Music shows are dominating the ratings, led by the Grammys, which were watched by about 40 million people.
It was the top-rated show of the week and the biggest audience for the Grammys since Michael Jackson's "Thriller" won eight awards in 1984. The two episodes of "American Idol" ranked third and fourth, followed by "The Voice."
The Voice was watched by nearly 18 million people, only about 300,000 viewers less than Thursday's episode of Idol. "NCIS" is in second place, while "NCIS: Los Angeles" is sixth.
"The Big Bang Theory," "Person of Interest," "The Mentalist" and "60 Minutes" round out the top ten.
