"CBS' strong first quarter viewership demonstrates the enduring
popularity of our programming across all genres and dayparts," says

streaming competitors, the Network continues to be a leading
multiplatform brand while aggregating audiences of significant
scale."

THE NFL ON CBS, college basketball, the PGA Tour, UEFA and other

minutes.
In late night, THE LATE SHOW with STEPHEN COLBERT has amassed 8.5 billion minutes,
beating its closest competition by +43%.
Daytime is also dominant with nearly 53 billion minutes
consumed. THE PRICE IS RIGHT leads all daytime shows with 17.7
billion minutes, and THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS celebrated its
50th anniversary as the top daytime drama with 13.7
billion minutes so far this season.

original streaming series (86b).
All CBS entertainment, news and sports programming is available
live on Paramount+ and most of the Network content is also
