The achievement marks a record-breaking eighth straight quarter of consecutive year-over-year growth, making MTV2 the only network targeting P12-34 to accomplish that feat.

"Not Exactly News" ranks as the No. 1 original series in its time period among Teens. Since its series premiere, 3 million total viewers have watched the show.

· "Wild 'N Out" ranks as the No. 1 original series at 11 p.m. across all of TV in the P12-34 demo. Since its season seven debut on June 10, 7 million total viewers have watched the series.
