Super Bowl XLIV Most-Watched Show Ever

American Voices • Entertainment • ISSUE 46•06 • Feb 10, 2010

With 106.5 million people tuning in, Sunday's Saints-Colts Super Bowl became the most-watched program in U.S. history, drawing 500,000 more viewers than the 1983 series finale of M*A*S*H. What do you think?

“Not only that, but the weight of the average viewer has increased by about 42 pounds since then."”

“I tuned in mainly for the Tim Tebow ad. I'm still on the fence about whether he should have been aborted. I'll know better once he's drafted into the NFL and plays four or more seasons as a starter."”

“To keep its ratings high, maybe CBS just needs to play hit songs from the Who during most of its TV shows. Oh, wait."”
