Big ratings week for Univision

0

As reported yesterday, CBS was celebrating the ratings results for last week, where it was #1 in Households, total viewers, Adults 18-49 and Adults 25-54. But there is one other big demo reported weekly by Nielsen, Adults 18-34. The winner there was Univision, with its victory coinciding with the termination of Nielsen’s previous Hispanic panel and all network rankings based solely on the single National People Meter (NPM) panel. Univision also had nine of the top 20 programs for the 18-34 demo. Univision put the word out that it "ranked as the #1 network with an +11% advantage over its nearest competitor, Fox, and beating ABC by +43%, CBS by +42%, NBC by +57%, and fully +125% ahead of CW for all Adults 18-34, not just Hispanics. Univision was also the
#1 ranked network all night every night Monday through Friday last week among the same coveted young adult demographic."
