Get ready for Week 1 of the NFL season with a special guest on the Sports Media Watch podcast, the familiar voice who welcomes viewers each week to seven hours of commercial-free football, “NFL RedZone” host Scott Hanson.

Hanson joins host T.J. Rives and Jon Lewis of Sports Media Watch to share how RedZone has changed over his 14-year tenure. Just how many screens are Scott and his production team having to keep up with in their studio/control room? Plus — is he a little more animated when big plays benefit his fantasy football team? Did the NFL broadcasting hot stove catch his attention? Also, is he a perfectionist about his work?

Hear all of that, plus a story about halftime at last year’s Super Bowl LVI in Los Angeles and how he almost missed the beginning of the second half of action with the Rams and the Bengals — and the liberties at least one fan took with a selfie.

It’s all part of a special edition of the “SportsMediaWatch.com Podcast” and make sure to follow/subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google, etc.!! For more interviews, check out the other shows on the SMW podcast feed. George Ofman had Greg Gumbel as his guest on his “Tell Me A Story I Don’t Know” podcast this week, while the “Announcer Schedules Podcast” had an interview with longtime boxing voice Barry Tompkins.

Sports Ratings Tracker
logoTalladega
Last weekend’s NASCAR Cup Series race from Talladega (Ala.) averaged a 2.1 rating and 3.97 million viewers on FOX, down a tick in ratings and 2% in viewership from last year (2.2, 4.04M). Excluding 2020, when the race was delayed several weeks and then postponed due to rain, Carson Hocevar’s win was the least-watched spring Talladega race since it began airing on FOX in 2001. Read more
logoNBA Playoffs on NBC
Monday’s Pistons-Magic first round NBA playoff Game 4 averaged a combined 5.4 million viewers on NBC across Nielsen and Adobe Analytics, up 155% from a Nielsen-only audience of 2.1 million for a non-exclusive Cavaliers-Heat Game 4 on TNT Sports last year. Read more
logoStanley Cup Update
Coverage of the NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs was averaging 1.15 million viewers through the first five days, up 76% from last year and the highest average on record at that point of the postseason. This year’s average is up 30% from the previous high of 887,000 in 2012, and up 39% from the previous high during the current media rights deal — 832,000 in 2024.
logoWomen’s National Championship
Last Sunday’s Wisconsin-Ohio State NCAA women’s hockey national title game averaged 39,000 viewers on ESPNU, down 9% from the same matchup last year (43K).
logoNCAA Women’s Tournament
The NCAA women’s basketball tournament was averaging 628,000 viewers through the first two rounds, up 4% from last year (602K) and behind the Caitlin Clark-fueled levels of 2024 as the highest average since 2009. Note that the 4% increase is well within the margin that can be explained entirely by Nielsen’s shift to “Big Data + Panel” methodology. Read more
logoDarlington
Last Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series race from Darlington (S.C.) averaged a 1.3 rating and 2.43 million viewers on FS1, up a tick in ratings but down 1% in viewership from Homestead-Miami on the same weekend last year (1.2, 2.46M). Read more
logoParalympics
The NBC family of networks averaged 1.1 million viewers for the recently-concluded Milan-Cortina Winter Paralympics, per a combination of Nielsen and Adobe Analytics — up 24% from the previous edition in Beijing four years ago. That is outside the range that would be explained by Nielsen methodological changes. Read more
