Comcast’s NBC broadcast network has allocated roughly 10% of its Super Bowl 60 ad inventory to streaming-only spots on Peacock, cutting costs to an average of $4 million per 30-second unit—about half the price of traditional broadcast commercials. With Peacock’s subscriber base now at 44 million, NBC’s chairman of global advertising, Mark Marshall, reports that all Peacock-exclusive slots this year went to new advertisers. Among them, Tecovas purchased a streaming-only spot to introduce its cowboy boots brand to millions of viewers, while family safety app Life360 targeted modern, connected households. Last year’s Super Bowl attracted 128 million viewers across broadcast and streaming platforms, according to Nielsen, and advertisers that tested Peacock during Sunday Night Football have reported improved audience targeting and engagement metrics compared with linear TV buys.

Comcast has completed a network expansion delivering symmetrical, multi-gigabit Xfinity Internet to over 8,800 homes and businesses across Carbon, Luzerne and Schuylkill counties in Pennsylvania. The buildout now covers Banks Township, Hazle Township and ten boroughs including McAdoo and Tamaqua, with service eligibility available online and the neighborhood of Kaska slated for connection by spring 2026. Two local Xfinity Stores in Wilkes-Barre and Wyomissing offer five-year price guarantees on Internet plans, mobile deals and Comcast Business services. Building on this phase, Comcast has begun connecting 2,700 locations in Columbia County and is preparing ground for further expansion toward Bloomsburg and Danville, contributing to the nearly 65 million locations nationwide on Comcast’s converged network.
