NEW YORK - January 27, 2026 – Nielsen’s December 2025 Media Distributor Gauge highlights lifts for distributors airing key sports events and movies, both of which drove record-breaking viewership during the peak holiday season. Disney, Warner Bros. Discovery, Hallmark, Netflix and Amazon all saw notable gains for the month.
Disney captured the highest multiplatform increase and maintained the No.2 position, up 4% in overall viewing to add 0.2 share points for a total share of 10.7%. This growth was fueled by ESPN, which recorded a 30% viewership increase driven by Monday Night Football, the expanded College Football Playoffs schedule, and College Gameday. Simultaneously, Freeform successfully doubled its November viewing, driven by its robust programming of holiday films like Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer そして Frosty The Snowman.
Warner Bros. Discovery also benefitted from success with its cable networks, with TBS and TNT up 23% and 24%, respectively. These gains were driven by College Football playoff coverage and holiday movie viewership, with クリスマス・ストーリー leading the way for TBS. HBO Max also saw a 10% viewing increase, primarily driven by original series It: Welcome To Derry, alongside the continued popularity of The Big Bang Theory そして 友達.
Leading the holiday movie genre’s success was The Hallmark Channel, which maintained strong momentum from November and secured the top 5 movie telecasts across cable distributors (in order): She’s Making A List, Single On The 25th, A Suite Holiday Romance, A Make Or Break Holiday そして Oy To The World.
As reported in Nielsen’s ゲージ December report, Christmas Day marked the most-streamed day ever with 55.1 billion viewing minutes. The record for Christmas Day was led by NFL coverage on Netflix and Prime Video, with both platforms achieving platform-best record shares in December. Netflix’s coverage of the NFL Christmas Day doubleheader, coupled with the success from the most-streamed original series ever: ストレンジャー・シングス, propelled Netflix into the third position with a 10% monthly viewing increase. The tandem success gave Netflix an additional 0.7 share points for a record total share of 9.0%.
Two other distributors achieved platform-best shares in December: Amazon with a 4.3% total share and The Roku Channel with a 3.0% total share. Amazon notched a 12% viewing increase in December attributable to Thursday Night Football coverage, a record-setting Christmas Day NFL game and the new season of フォールアウト. Notably, The Roku Channel has exhibited consistent growth, the platform is up 45% since last December and up 190% compared to December 2023.
今月の放送ネットワーク系列局の貢献度は11月と比較して減少し、主要ネットワークはすべて下落した。この減少は主に、感謝祭のNFL試合の欠如、放送でのカレッジフットボール日程の縮小、ワールドシリーズ試合の不在など、注目度の高いスポーツ中継の減少に起因するとされている。ケーブルニュースネットワークも今月は下落した。
2025年12月の期間（12月1日から12月28日まで）は4週間にわたりました。ニールセンの報告は放送カレンダーに準拠し、週単位の期間は月曜日に始まります。
