- Telemundo cooked up notable watch-time, jumping from No. 48 to No. 22 week-over-week, largely thanks to Top Chef VIP, a Spanish-language adaptation of NBCU’s hit franchise that aired new episodes on six of the seven days of the week measured.
- Univision, meanwhile, moves from No. 10 previously to No. 7, with watch-time propelled by Copa América USA 2024.
