crappy 1,000th post.


Super Bowl is most watched TV show ever

NEW YORK (AP)—The Super Bowl was watched by more than 106 million people, surpassing the 1983 finale of “M-A-S-H” to become the most-watched program in television history.

The Nielsen Co. estimated Monday that 106.5 million people watched the New Orleans Saints upset the Indianapolis Colts. That beats the “M-A-S-H” finale, which had 105.97 million viewers in an era when there were fewer television sets.

----------------------

so two comments here:

1. that's a lot of friggen' people.

2. why in the hell did so many people care about the last episode of "M.A.S.H"? i know it was on for 10 years but still; it was a good altman movie rehashed for television. just seems a bit excessive.
