"THE GOLDEN GLOBES" GROW YEAR-TO-YEAR IN THE METERED MARKETS

TRIPLES NBC'S TIME-SLOT AVERAGE LAST SEASON EXCLUDING FOOTBALL

THE "GLOBES" SCORE THE TOP NON-SPORTS RATING IN THE TIME PERIOD FOR ANY BIG 4 NETWORK SINCE LAST FEBRUARY'S "ACADEMY AWARDS"

Here are "Golden Globes" results from the 56 local markets metered by Nielsen, keep in mind that time zone-adjusted fast nationals are expected later today.

NBC's telecast of "The 73rd Annual Golden Globe Awards" (13.0 rating, 20 share in households in the 56 markets metered by Nielsen Media Research):

· Is up versus year-ago results in the local markets by +3% (13.0/20 vs. 12.6/19).

· Tops every Golden Globes average in the metered markets from 2008 through 2012 and virtually matches the 2013 rating (13.1).

· Delivers the highest rating in the time period for any Big 4 network, excluding sports, since last February's "Academy Awards."

· Has delivered over the last four years the event's four highest ratings since 2007.

Note that fast-affiliate ratings (due at 8 a.m. PT / 11 a.m. ET) are not time zone-adjusted and will be unreliable for the live "Golden Globes" telecast. Time zone-adjusted fast nationals are expected later today.

· Generated NBC's top non-sports total-viewer result in the time period excluding prior "Golden Globes" and the "SNL 40" special, in more than 13 years (since Sept. 22, 2002, 19.991 million for that year's "Emmy Awards").
