Monday Final Nationals: NBC Olympic Telecast Wins its 50th Consecutive Prime Time

From NBC Sports Group (full press release): For Monday’s primetime coverage, NBC Olympics’ Total Audience Delivery — calculating average minute viewing across broadcast, cable, and digital — had an average of 25.5 million viewers with an 14.9 household rating.

NBC’s Monday primetime Rio Olympics broadcast was by far the most-watched show of the night – marking the 50th consecutive night that an NBC Olympic presentation has topped primetime. This streak began with Day 14 of the 2010 Vancouver Games.

From the second Monday in London 2012, the night was down 4 percent in total audience and down 6 percent in household rating (26.6 million viewers/15.8 household rating on August 6, 2012) when it had aired solely on NBC.
