Monday Night Countdown, NFL Live, NFL Rewind and NFL Matchup all increased or maintained their audience pace from the 2021 regular season, and NFL Primetime remained a leader on ESPN+, an impressive feat for a portfolio of shows which also had documented viewership success last season. ESPN's regular season success was evident throughout the 18 weeks, as documented at the halfway point of the year.

For the entire season, the pre-game show maintained a strong audience from last year, averaging 1.5 million viewers, in line with last year's audience. Looking at specific demos, the show was up 4% in adults 18-24.

NFL Live Matches Best Viewership Since 2016, Continues Multiple Year Momentum

NFL Live (weekdays, 4-5 p.m.) continued its breakneck viewership accolades this season, as the daily news and information show averaged 423,000 viewers per episode. The viewership matches the show's best season audience in five years (2016) and continues the show's viewership successes from 2021 and 2020. In November, NFL Live averaged 452,000 viewers per episode, marking the show's third best monthly audience since December 2018.

NFL Rewind, NFL Matchup Both Grow Audiences

NFL Rewind (Mondays, 3-4 p.m.) raised its own bar again, delivering the highlight and recap show's best regular season audience in its three full seasons. The weekly show averaged 373,000 viewers, up from the 2021 season (370,000 viewers).

NFL Matchup earned its best audience since 2019, as the weekly show averaged 267,000 viewers. The audience was up 4% year over year. The most-viewed episode was Nov. 19 with 474,000 viewers.

NFL Primetime Leads the Way on ESPN+

NFL Primetime (Sundays, 7:30 p.m. ET and on-demand) was the top original studio program on ESPN+ during the season.
