"How I Met Your Mother" went out on top in the ratings with its series finale on Monday night. Early Nielsen ratings showed that the hour-long episode was easily the most-watched show of the night, and landed No. 1 for viewers 18-49 years old and 25-54 years old.

The finale beat "The Voice" and "Dancing With The stars" in the latter demographic, with its best-ever young-adult delivery, according to Variety. The early estimates report that nearly 13 million viewers tuned in.
