Super Bowl LVIII makes history as most-watched American telecast ever
headshot

    Sara Fischer

CBS' broadcast of Super Bowl LVIII on Sunday was the most-watched television event in U.S. history, according to preliminary Nielsen figures — with 123.4 million viewers across CBS, Univision and streaming platforms.

Why it matters: A nail-biter ending in overtime, combined with celebrity sightings and a history-making consecutive win by the Kansas City Chiefs, drove the NFL to make television history at a time when few events are still able to pull large swaths of Americans together.

I didn't even know the game was being played until some comments here a few days after it occurred. That is how much I care for the NFL.

I just found out this morning who won by accident.
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

I keep seeing "Mr. Beast" commercials on my streaming platforms. He averages about this per video now on YouTube and his stuff is honestly juvenile crapola. So Mr. Beast gets over 100-110 million views per video compared to this one time 120 million.

The stupid, it hurts.

My daughter and her husband had a Stuperbowl party and the only reason we went was because it was her birthday :shrug: I have never been much of a sports fan unless it was my daughter playing fastpitch or now my grandson playing baseball. I just can't get excited about it, but that's just me as for others I say knock yourself out....which is something else I don't understand, people beating the hell out of or killing someone over a team or game **nononono*

Didn't watch the game.  Football has never been my thing.  It was reported who won and find it disgusting that it was also reported that  a 'Black National Anthem' was played.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Ditto. Although I sure am sorry I missed the fabulous halftime show which featured numerous musicians ...excuse....recording artists I've never heard of.  Listening to a clip on the national news after the game made me sad.
I missed my opportunity to record awful music and make millions.
