I watched on Nickelodeon, as I can't take football seriously.  I'm probably covered somewhere in the fine print. I'm out of the SpongeBob demo, but I must admit that having SpongeBob and Patrick Star join CBS's fifth-string made for an entertaining watch. Best,David On Monday, February

I was at a friends’ apartment watching on good old-fashioned Spectrum cable. Some other people in the complex were loudly cheering for things about 45 seconds after we’d seen them, so I assume they were watching on Paramount+ or some other streaming option. > On Feb 12, 2024, at 7:56 PM, Stan

Last January 81% of US men identified as avid or casual NFL fans, vs 59% of US women. I don’t know the corresponding breakdown for Taylor Swift fans, but assuming it is at least as skewed the other way towards women, there is some potential for Swift bringing in new fans to NFL games. But again,

I saw in Matt Belloni's latest email that last week's divisional game got a record 50.4m viewers. So I assume that yesterday's will top that. Belloni predicts record breaking Super Bowl ratings - although I wonder if that is Swift fans, and not just the fact that, in the US, NFL is the monoculture

I think we are still some years off from the Super Bowl being exclusively on Peacock or some other streamer (this year you will have the option of watching on P+). And while it is difficult to make predictions about absolute broadcast ratings these days, it is a lock that for as long as linear

As we are at the twilight of broadcast television, it is difficult to predict how the SuperBowl will fare when viewers must stream it. Sports has maintained ratings compared to other produced series, but sponsors are starting to realize that doesn’t automatically lead to audiences buying

So Super Bowl ratings will spike this year since Taylor Swift will likely be there. She is scheduled to play Feb. 10 at the Tokyo Dome. That gives her enough time to take her private jet to Las Vegas for the Super Bowl. My question is, will this spike have a lasting effect? Will more people watch

TV by the Numbers is brutal on the NBC broadcast. He doesn’t like the announcers or the half time show. I appreciate that Timberlake didn’t lip synch. It was a great game. I think many who didn’t tune in didn’t care to see Brady win another ring.
