CBS programming generated more than 281B minutes of viewing across all dayparts in the first quarter of the year, with more than 30% dedicated to primetime content.
According to the broadcaster, primetime entertainment programming tallied more than 92B of the network’s total minutes watched. The FBI franchise alone drew more than 15B minutes viewed with the NCIS franchise right on its heels.
Sports generated 77B viewing minutes, while news content aggregated around 57B. In late night, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert drew 8.5B viewing minutes. Daytime was responsible for 53B led by The Price Is Right and The Young and The Restless.
The viewing measurements includes same-day viewing as well as 35 days of delayed viewing for all content across Paramount+ and other digital platforms.
Measuring viewership based on the total viewing minutes allows for a comparison between the broadcast networks and streaming services, since Nielsen only reports streaming viewership in that metric. Many of the streamers, including Paramount+, do not report viewing metrics on their own. So far, Netflix is the only streaming service to consistently release any viewership metrics with its weekly Top 10 lists.
In addition to the big four broadcast networks (CBS, ABC, Fox, and NBC), Nielsen’s viewing data for the quarter also includes the total viewing minutes for all original content across Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, Prime Video and HBO Max.
The data shows that CBS came in second only to Netflix, which generated a whopping 337B viewing minutes from its original content in the first quarter. By these measurements, audiences spent nearly four times more time with CBS programing than the combined minutes spent watching SVOD originals on Prime

Brian Steinberg Senior TV Editor Comedian Roy Wood Jr. did something many guests at the annual White House Correspondents Dinner forget to do: celebrate journalism.

Clayton Davis Senior Awards Editor The TV Academy has a problem with Jon Stewart’s Emmys submission and has forced a change. Apple TV+ and the creative teams behind “The Problem With Jon Stewart” had plans to compete in the outstanding hosted nonfiction series or special category, where its first season received an Emmy nomination last year. However, the Television Academy has denied its submission and moved the show to the outstanding talk series category, where it will face off against late-night hosts such as Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel and Seth Meyers.
