Disney e Netflix ottengono ciascuna le migliori performance aziendali

FOX e Disney guidano la crescita mensile dei distributori, con un aumento del 12% rispetto a dicembre.

CNN (+39%), FOX News Channel (+29%) e MSNBC (+26%) guadagnano trazione nell'intenso ciclo di notizie di gennaio

NEW YORK – February 25, 2025 - Disney accounted for 12.0% of time spent watching TV in January 2025 according to Nielsen’s Media Distributor Gauge, locking in its best monthly share of TV among media companies since the report was established in November 2023. Disney’s success was primarily due to the College Football Playoffs, which represented the seven highest rated cable telecasts in January, and which drove an 84% monthly increase in ESPN viewership. Overall, viewing to Disney-owned entities was up 12% versus December to add 0.8 share points.

Further summarized in Nielsen’s January 2025 Gauge ‘Classic’ report, this month’s Media Distributor Gauge results were also influenced by a 5% monthly increase in TV watch-time. A busy news cycle helped drive a 26% monthly uptick in cable news viewing, including +26% for MSNBC, +29% for FOX News Channel and +39% for CNN. However, FOX News Channel ultimately provided the primary boost for FOX at the total distributor level, leading the way with its coverage of the presidential inauguration. Overall, FOX was up 12% in January and tied Disney for the largest monthly viewing increase among distributors, finishing with 7.6% of total TV (+0.5 pt.).

Netflix clinched its highest share of TV to date with 8.6% of overall viewing in January. The pure-play streamer followed an already robust December with an even stronger January as its watch-time climbed 7%. This was due in large part to Squid Game, which generated 9 billion viewing minutes as January’s top streaming title, in tandem with 11 other original series and movies that reached over 1 billion viewing minutes each. 

Coerentemente con la transizione dalle festività, la visione di film via cavo a gennaio è calata del 22% rispetto a dicembre. Ciò ha contribuito a una perdita di 0,6 punti di share per Hallmark, che in precedenza aveva registrato due guadagni mensili consecutivi, portandolo a concludere il mese con l'1,0% della fruizione televisiva.

Le date degli intervalli di gennaio 2025 comprendono dal 30.12.2024 al 26.01.2025. La rilevazione Nielsen segue il calendario delle trasmissioni con settimane di misurazione che vanno dal lunedì alla domenica.
