Universo is on track to close out the 2019-2020 season as the number one Spanish-language cable network in Weekday Total Day among Total Viewers.
Throughout the season, the network has also been the fastest-growing Spanish-language cable network in Monday-Sunday primetime and total day among Adults 18-49, posting impressive growth of 32% in Primetime and 20% in Total Day within the demo.
In addition, year-to-date, Universo is currently ranked as the #1 Spanish-language cable network in Weekday Prime and Total Day among Total Viewers.
“Universo’s strong growth over this last season is a direct result of the network’s ongoing commitment to offer a unique and dynamic mix of entertainment, sports, and reality-based content that connects and engages with the diverse U.S. Latino audience,” said Ronald Day, EVP of Entertainment, Universo and Telemundo.
