OOH Viewers Enjoyed a Stuffed Thanksgiving Week

Per usual, the NFL dominated the Tunity Analytics Weekly National Out-of-Home Viewer Rankings for the week of November 25th, accounting for eight of ten programs. Two college football programs grams ruined the NFL’s chance at a clean sweep as Ohio State-Michigan and Alabama-Auburn snagged the second and ninth spots, respectively. These two games were also the second and eighth most-watched college football games of the season, respectively. 

 

OOH viewers thoroughly enjoyed college football’s Rivalry Weekend as seven college football programs made the Top Ten Non-NFL. In addition to Ohio State-Michigan and Alabama-Auburn, Wisconsin-Minnesota, Clemson-South Carolina and Oklahoma-Oklahoma State were the other games to crack the Top Ten. College GameDay, the popular Saturday morning college football show, took home the fifth spot as it averaged over 1MM OOH viewers. Pardon the Interruption, an OOH viewer favorite, averaged 922k OOH viewers and snagged the seventh spot. 

 

We have a new #1 atop the Top Ten Entertainment as Young Sheldon has dethroned The Simpsons after a four-week run. The holidays are here and OOH viewers are ready; 575k OOH viewers tuned in to Robbie the Reindeer and 668k OOH viewers watched the classic Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. In total, CBS accounted for eight of the ten programs while NBC and FOX each added one apiece.
