Bradshaw retired from football on July 24, 1984,<ref name="Retirement">{{cite news|url=http://cover32.com/2016/07/05/day-terry-bradshaw-retired-steelers/|title=The day Terry Bradshaw retired from the Steelers|date=July 5, 2016|publisher=Cover32|access-date=August 27, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170827132451/http://cover32.com/2016/07/05/day-terry-bradshaw-retired-steelers/|archive-date=August 27, 2017|url-status=dead}}</ref> and quickly signed a television contract with [[NFL on CBS|CBS]] to become an NFL game analyst in [[1984 NFL season|1984]], where he and play-by-play announcer [[Verne Lundquist]] had the top-[[Nielsen ratings|rated]] programs. Prior to his full-time work for them, he served as a guest commentator for [[CBS Sports]]' NFC postseason broadcasts from [[1980 NFL season|1980]]–[[1982 NFL season|82]].

Bradshaw was promoted into television studio analyst for ''[[The NFL Today]]'' in [[1990 NFL season|1990]] (which he hosted with [[Greg Gumbel]] through the [[1993 NFL season|1993 season]]). In 1994, with the Fox network establishing its sports division with their purchase of NFL TV rights, Bradshaw joined ''Fox NFL Sunday'', where he normally acts as a [[foil (literature)|comic foil]] to his co-hosts. On ''Fox NFL Sunday'', he hosts two semiregular features, ''Ten Yards with TB'', where he fires random questions at an NFL professional, and ''The Terry Awards'', an annual comedic award show about the NFL season. As a cross-promotional stunt, he also hosted two consecutive ''Digi-Bowl'' specials in 2001 and 2002 on [[Fox Kids]], providing commentary from the ''NFL on Fox'' studio in-between episodes of ''[[Digimon: Digital Monsters]]''; the 2002 special was the final one as the Fox Kids block ended the same year. He appeared on the first broadcast of ''[[NASCAR on FOX]]'', where he took a ride with [[Dale Earnhardt]] at [[Daytona International Speedway]] the night before Earnhardt was [[Death of Dale Earnhardt|killed in a last-lap crash]] in the [[2001 Daytona 500|Daytona 500]]. Bradshaw also waved the [[Racing flags#Green flag|green flag]] at the start of the ill-fated race.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nascar-from-the-marbles/earnhardt-nation-excerpt--dale-earnhardt-s-last-daytona-days-044203107.html | title=EARNHARDT NATION excerpt: Dale Earnhardt's last Daytona days | date=February 16, 2016 }}</ref><ref>https://youtube.com/eQEI62mHScA?si=h_kXqz1jSm2ki0ws{{Dead link|date=January 2024 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref>

Bradshaw has the reputation of being the "ol' redneck", but in former co-host and NFL coach [[Jimmy Johnson (American football coach)|Jimmy Johnson]]'s words, the act is a "schtick".<ref name="Five Questions With Jimmy Johnson">{{Cite web|url=http://dailytailgate.com/issues/47-DT-Jimmy-Johnson-QA-In-Case-You-Misse|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20091022003654/http://dailytailgate.com/issues/47-DT-Jimmy-Johnson-QA-In-Case-You-Misse|url-status=dead|title=Five Questions With Jimmy Johnson|archivedate=October 22, 2009}}</ref> According to Johnson, Bradshaw deflects such criticism by stating that "he's so dumb that he has to have somebody else fly his private plane."<ref name="Five Questions With Jimmy Johnson"/>
