Usher, 49ers, & Chiefs Lead Super Bowl LVIII To Become the Most-Watched TV Program in HISTORY

Published: Wednesday 14th Feb 2024 by Rashad

The Kansas City Chiefs may have scored the winning touchdown at the 2024 Super Bowl, but the game itself has been proven to be the overall winner.

Details inside.

With updated numbers revealed on Tuesday (February 13), Nielsen has revealed Sunday’s big game (February 11) was not only the most-watched Super Bowl ever but the most-watched program in the history of American television.

Uniquely also the longest Super Bowl ever, the thrilling spectacle – highlighted by an electrifying halftime show headlined by global R&B superstar Usher – averaged a whopping 123.7 million viewers across television and streaming platforms.

As if that’s not enough to boast, Nielsen reported a record 202.4 million watched at least part of the game across all networks.

For context, last year’s event (which featured Rihanna as the halftime show headliner) was crowned the most-watched Super Bowl at the time when it boasted 115.1 million viewers.

It should be noted that some of the increase can be attributed to a change in the way viewers are counted as Nielsen now includes out-of-home viewers from roughly 65% of the country in its ratings ranking (a move implemented in 2020).

    Je did a great show Legend

      Nothing legendary about it hon! It is all marketing. 🐑

      The NFL openly tells you it’s scripted in a light hearted way, but I believe they might be revealing something sinister about the Superbowl in February.

      This Superbowl will be the one of the 2023 season, so has Skull & Bones symbolism all over it. ☠ 322.

      They even hired an actor that was born on 3/22 to reveal the Superbowl script.

      As he reveals the script, he seems to gesture a button/gun finger, while mouthing the word “Boom”.

      Could this be the DARK EVENT that Aaron Rodgers was foreshadowing in his Week 1 ritual when he carried an American flag between 2 burning steel towers, before collapsing to the ground minutes later.

      Revealing the end at the beginning?

      As soon as Tay Tay got involved we knew who was going to win 🤮🤮

      Usher is just another tool to promote Apple products! Open your 3rd eye….

        Riiighttt!!

        cause it’s an event for the rich to spend money for something they are irrelevant to or for. 90% of the celebs there haven’t a clue what’s going on. A bunch of Rich people who don’t actually like Football is why… 🥱

    Well, Black people are winning everything. Are we surprised?

    • Ask Tom Brady 💀 February 14, 2024

      It is a circus of the year! All players are scripted and know in advance when they will be injured/making goals/ who to throw to, etc.
      It’s just another money-making scheme for the rich. Are we so stupid we don’t remember “bread and circuses”?

  10. Chris Brownie 🥳 February 14, 2024

    The @NFL in general is boring and has lost all credibility when it comes to the real fans that have watched for years. In the next decade the NFL will be flag football.
