In the United States , there are three major traditional commercial broadcast television networks - CBS (Columbia Broadcasting System), NBC (National Broadcasting Company), and ABC (American Broadcasting Company) - that due to their longevity and ratings success are referred to as the "Big Three", which dominated American television until the 1990s, and are still considered major U.S. broadcast companies.
