Posted on: Sunday, 15 March 2009, 12:03 CDT
ABC is dominating its U.S. TV network peers when it comes to online offerings, having nine of the top 10 most-streamed series, the Nielsen ratings group says.
Nielsen said in its February VideoCensus report that ABC's Lost
topped all other series last month with 2.5 million unique viewers online and 48 million total streams, MediaWeek reported Friday.
The series' unique viewers tally for February marked a 41 percent increase compared with January, while its total streams represented a 20 percent jump.
ABC also managed to top 1 million unique viewers in February with Dancing with the Stars
and Grey's Anatomy.
Other top ABC shows in terms of online streaming last month were The Bachelor,
Brother & Sisters,
Scrubs,
Extreme Makeover: Home Edition,
Desperate Housewives
and Private Practice.
MediaWeek said NBC's Saturday Night Live
mitigated ABC's dominance on the list, coming in eighth overall in total February online viewers.
