According to Nielsen Media Research for July ’01 (7/2-29/01), Nickelodeon delivered a record-breaking average of 992,000 kids 2-11 in total day, marking a 4% increase over last year’s record-setting kid delivery levels (957,000). Among households in total day, Nickelodeon averaged a 1.5/1.2 million HH, delivering audience levels comparable to last year’s record-setting July ’00, when the network garnered its largest household delivery numbers ever.
