SUPER BOWL AUDIENCE RECORD / GLEE GETS A FIELD GOAL

gregg75

According to deadline.com the Super Bowl beat last year's ratings. Glee pulled in
26.8 million viewers (18-49) well below the 38.7 which Undercover Boss got for
CBS last year but higher than The Office (22.9 million) gave NBC in 2009. Glee
did have the third largest POST audience of the last 12 years and it's highest ever.

Last night's Super Bowl XLV now stands as the most watched program in TV history with an audience of 111 million viewers, topping last year's Super Bowl (106.5 million) and the series finale of M*A*S*H in 1983 (106 million). This is the fourth consecutive Super Bowl to set a viewership record for the NFL.

Their article has the Super Bowl on both NBC and Fox in 2009......that can't be
correct.
........22.9 million viewers for NBC's The Office 2 years ago. (In 18-49, Glee's rating was only a tenth higher than Office's 11.0) It was the best performance for a scripted series after the big game since House on Fox in 2009 (29 million viewers.)

This news warms my heart.

Memo to NFL: Just one more Super Bowl that exceeds 106 million viewers.
