LOS ANGELES — Even with the nonmanly sport of ice dancing dominating Monday night's prime-time coverage from the Vancouver Olympics, NBC still scored a ratings victory.

The U.S. didn't win any gold medals to draw in extra viewers, but 21 million were watching the Olympics versus 11.2 million for "The Bachelor" during the 8-to-10 p.m. Pacific block and 8.7 million for "24" from 8 to 9, according to NBC and Nielsen Media Research.
