Finally A New Post...And Finally, Nielsen Speaks!
First of all, I'M SORRY for not being on for 9 months. I was fertilizing this post. Second, this post isn't mostly mine. It's mostly Nielsen's. Nielsen, as you know, keeps the viewership ratings for TV and has since the 1950s. They have disclosed the Top 10 most-watched telecasts of the 2018-2019 season (which they are defining as July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019.) Nielsen emphasizes that the following statistics have not been finalized, and there may be errors, but there is only a 5% margin of error with the following tallies. So, here is my analysis of what was most watched over the previous season. 1. SUPER BOWL LIII Date and Time: Sunday, February 3, 2019, 6:30 to 10:30 pm Eastern Network: CBS Viewers: 103 million Did I watch it? Yes. 2. LAST EPISODE OF "THE BIG BANG THEORY" Date and Time: Thursday, May 23, 2019, 8:00 to 9:00 pm Eastern Network: CBS Viewers: 50 million Did I watch it? Yes. 3. GAME 7 OF THE 2019 STANLEY CUP
