STAMFORD, Conn. - March 1, 2018 - The most recent Nielsen report shows an increase of 646,000 NBCSN television homes following its extensive coverage of the 2018 PyeongChang Olympics.

NBCSN is in approximately 85 million U.S. TV homes.

"We are pleased that this report amplifies NBCSN's best month ever," said Mark Lazarus, Chairman, NBC Broadcasting and Sports.
