For a couple weeks here and there she was beating him by a smidge in absolute numbers (but not the male 18-34; her show is more popular among women).

He typically gets around 1.3-1.6 million viewers, whereas Chelsea Lately rarely cracks a million.

It’s surprising how important lead-ins still are in the DVR age.
