Super Ratings

In an era of splintered viewership and hundreds of channels, the Super Bowl has managed something remarkable -- it's actually set all-time records each of the last two years. Yesterday's game pulled in a 46.4 households rating and 68 share, up 10% from last year's game and, potentially, the only entertainment program other than the M.A.S.H. finale to win over 100 million viewers. (UPDATE: It surpassed even that!) Let me break it down for you: This country has now seen enough talking babies in advertisements that if you laid them end to end, you could reach Saturn. Bravo.

    You lost me after "splintered viewership" but as soon as you broke it down into cold hard baby facts I really understood the weight of this ratings revelation. Bravo.
