Telemundo wrapped the month of June having outperformed Univision an unprecedented 10 times among adults 18-49 in Monday-Friday, 7-11pm primetime. The network delivered a historic ratings victory during the week of May 30 to June 2, 2016, when it ranked as the #1 Spanish-language broadcast network in primetime among adults 18-49 for four consecutive nights. In addition, this season Telemundo continues to reduce the gap with Univision by 62% among adults 18-49 compared to last season (222,000 vs. 582,000), and by 64% among adults 18-34 (103,000 vs. 289,000), during Monday-Friday primetime programming.

"Telemundo's innovative programming strategy, anchored by original programming and new formats such as our 10pm Super Series™, is continuing to solidify our network as the destination for fast-paced, high quality storytelling tailored to U.S. Hispanics," said Luis Silberwasser, President, Telemundo. "Our focus on the U.S. Hispanic market and our drive to innovate is fueling our growth in a more consistent basis than ever before."

Season-to-date, Telemundo is the #1 Spanish-language television network among adults 18-49 and adults 18-34 at 10pm, Monday through Friday. Telemundo is also the #1 broadcast network, regardless of language, in the second quarter of 2016 among adults 18-34 during regular programming in its Monday to Friday 10pm timeslot, bolstered by the fourth season of its record-breaking Super Series™ "El Señor de Los Cielos."
