SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

The way things are trending the New Orleans Super Bowl next year will break yet another record for the most watched televised broadcast in history.

Super Bowl 2024 Was the Most-Watched Telecast of All Time, Reaching 123.7 Million Viewers

The Feb. 11 Super Bowl game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers brought in an average of 123.4 million viewers — the highest number of people watching the same broadcast in the history of television.

112 million of those viewers were tuned into the CBS broadcast — the largest audience ever for a single network. The rest were measured across Paramount+, Nickelodeon, Univision, CBS Sports and NFL digital properties including NFL+. Per Paramount Global, Paramount+ saw record-breaking viewership that made Sunday the most-streamed Super Bowl ever, but exact data regarding streaming views isn’t available.

UPDATE: Nielsen has updated their estimate, reporting that Super Bowl LVIII reached 123.7 million viewers, up from the initial count of 123.4 million.

Before this, the biggest telecast of all time was last year’s Super Bowl game between the Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles. It was initially named the third most-watched, ranking behind the 2015 and 2017 Super Bowls which brought in 114.4 million and 113.7 million viewers, respectively. But Nielsen later caught errors in their measurement that raised the tally from 113 million to a record-breaking 115.1 million viewers. Sunday’s game improved on that number by 7%.

These figures, combined from Nielsen and Adobe Analytics, represent the average number of viewers who were tuned in at any given moment during each game, but Nielsen puts the number of people who viewed any portion of the telecast at 202.4 million, up 10% from last year’s 184 million.

Shhh… Pollyanna has you set to “IGNORE”

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

I know everyone says "never bet against Mahomes" but with the way KC was so low-energy this last season, I just don't see them getting back for the 3peat attempt. Gonna be a giant target on their backs.

Glad it's in NOLA because that means major money for the region and the franchise. Just keep that power on!

I read this post again.... gotta ask... are you so gullible and of the mindset that whatever the ...what is it... neilsen and adobe analytics , PROJECT...you take this as "gospel" ..... Reality check Moriarity..... :beatnik:

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

I wish the best for a N.O. next year.
SB which will not be in N.O. for another 15-20 years.
Lots of reports are the Vegas should be it or more often.

SB, I like KCC.
This game was a big one, excitement…OT. The hype about 49ers after all these years and KCC AGAIN.

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

Don't worry, Maid, the Super Bowl will be back in New Orleans well before 15-20 years for the same reason Vegas will keep hosting. Very few NFL cities have the infrastructure to handle the Game and the week preceding. New Orleans and Vegas are now at the very top of the list. They both have the hotel space, entertainment, dining, and easy accessibility to the stadium by foot. Part of the reason why the Superdome received that 3/4er's of a billion dollars in stadium upgrades the past three years was the guarantee by the league to remain in that regular rotation.

This coming game will be the 11th hosted by New Orleans and the 9th in the Superdome! We can expect the big game being held in Nola once every six or seven years now that the venue is back to cutting edge.

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

That’s great. Can we expect to ever actually PLAY CHAMPIONSHIP FOOTBALL (remember that?) and WIN A SUPER BOWL in our Dome, or in any venue for that matter?

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

yeahh.... lets get excited that New Orleans will host the SuperBowl! as to actually having the Saints Football Team actually build a team to play the SuperBowl. :beatnik:

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

Quido celebrates stadium upgrades, increased revenue for Divine Miss Gayle, and out of state sewage generated in NewOrleans. He really doesn’t care about WINNING FOOTBALL GAMES.

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

I was worried that we wouldn't see enough of Taylor Swift!

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

I'd rather see her than Goodell.

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

YAYYYY for CBS!!! YAYYYY for Nickelodeon!!!

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

Better figure out how to get Taylor Swift into the dome. Don’t ignore her fans turning on the SB wanting tonget glimpses of her.

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

The NFL is quite shrewd. They'll likely aim for someone that is younger and that isn't of European descent like Ariana Grande. They might even go full woke and have Lil Nas date a wide receiver and cheer him on throughout the season.

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

Hmmmmm......is there an entertainer/influencer out there for one of the Saints?

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

None that I know that are that famous. Although, Lainey Wilson used to open for my son's band back in Monroe several years back. I don't think she's in the market for a love interest right now. There is a pretty, talented young lady that he has perform with him occasionally that is, I guess, what you'd call an "influencer". She has a solid following on TikTok, but she's always writing songs about breakups. Oh, wait, that's what Taylor Swift does too. LOL!

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

yeah... lets get a "famous love interest" to represent the Saints as opposed to a great football team to perform that role. :beatnik:

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

Oh just keep taking my money!

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

To be honest. It was my suggestion to find a celebrity and I was trying to be funny. Guido was just playing along.

It's a new season with new offensive coaches installing a new game plan. Now is the time for enthusiasm! We may finally have an Alpha male in the building again after losing Payton's strong influence. DA is a good DC but he has short comings as a HC. Maybe Kubiak will take the pressure off him to be "The Man" and allow him to focus on the defense again.

We have the potential to be good with an upgrade from Carmichael to Kubiak and his wide zone Shanahan system complimenting DA's defense. Let's go in feeling good about this year. We can always come back to reality again if necessary. Who Dat!

I believe we had our turn? At this point ‘everyone has had their turn on our turn’ might be more fitting.

Do you recall Reggie Bush and Kim Kardashian after the Super Bowl? That’s my personal litmus test when being called racist or a hater. I feel the same exact way about seeing Kim K in 2009, as I did Kaepernick in 2017, as I did Swift in 2024.. I want the NFL to stop inserting non football related distractions into my very small weekly window to enjoy football.

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

The NFL is in the “Entertainment” Bu$ine$$. It’s not entirely about Football anymore. It involves theatrics and complications and dramas that are strategically orchestrated at levels that the average football fan cannot possibly grasp. It involves a deep psychological operation designed to influence and merge diverse targeted market demographics. All we can do is sit back and try to enjoy whatever’s left of the game, and hope that our Saints might become relevant in it again, before sinking deeper into a swamp of obscurity.

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

Preaching to the choir brother. The NFL like any other major corporation has its sights set on market share which (unknow by many) gave up its non-profit status in 2015.

For instance the "Competition Committee" is a logical fallacy, no one wants competition including the fans. What the league and the fans want are to be entertained while hoping for a Dynasty, which is why the rules have changed over the years to deliver this that. Trench warfare football will not get the NFL television market share.

The NFL wants people to tune in and they will do anything to get that... Competition and integrity of the sport be damned.:beer:

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

And what is wrong with that? If people are tuning in in ever increasing numbers then so be it. You idealistic few can move on to something else. ;)

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

Some of the “idealistic few” on here are fans of the GAME OF FOOTBALL.
It’s tough to make that point to an old man who wears a tutu with dollar signs on it.

As a fan of the NFL for all of my life I can not understand you. You're not even a millennial.:confused:

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

I'm not sure what generational grouping has to do with anything.

The world evolves. I am a realist. I have been an NFL fan for longer than most of you have been alive. I have seen the game change constantly since I first started following in the early 1960's. When I was born there were only 12 regular season games. Shortly before I started following the game it increased to 14 games. As a six year old boy in South Dakota, Bart Starr and the Packers were everything when it came to football. My dad was transferred in the Spring of '67 to Barksdale AFB in Bossier City and I discovered my new state was getting a team. I hopped right onboard. Helmets were changing. Play calling was different. They didn't move to 16 games until I was in college and was able to follow much more closely through the news department of our campus newspaper. Teletype. There have been huge changes made even since then. Yet, the game has exploded now worldwide. I'm able to see and enjoy more games than ever before. Does the game resemble what it was when I started following? In the basics, yes. Exactly? No, not even close. That doesn't mean it's bad.

Major League Baseball could learn a few things from the NFL. They have progressed some over the past couple of decades, but are still eons behind their potential.

See the thing is, this Forum is about the BLACK AND GOLD, which is the SAINTS, who are a PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALL TEAM that we are FANS of. Our team, that we want to see WIN CHAMPIONSHIP FOOTBALL. I’d venture to say that most of us are not sitting here wearing a tutu, mini mouse ears, and rose colored glasses, trying to convince other fans to be thankful that our team is almost mediocre.

You’re here to celebrate the increasing success of dinosaur multi-millionaires merging with a growing fan-girl base that are almost as hypnotized as you. You celebrate the movement of Fans’ hard earned money and precious attention being sucked into a business model that fails to deliver a quality product: CHAMPIONSHIP LEVEL FOOTBALL, BEING PLAYED BY THE SAINTS. You tell people who are not happy with being consistently disappointed to go elsewhere. YOU are the one who needs to find another forum. I’m sure Nickelodeon has their own NFL forum, now that they got their own booth at the S. B. - You can go there and post links about Mickey Mouse making more money this year than at any point in history, while our Saints continue to get mismanaged deeper into a swamp of irrelevance.

I just heard today that Peacock paid the NFL $110 million for the streamed wildcard game this year. The 2025 playoff game will cost the streaming broadcaster, most likely Peacock again, $150 million in 2025. That is over a 36% increase in revenue. That is unless some other broadcaster offers more!

This is just another indicator of why the NFL revenues keep rising faster than even projected. Thus, the salary cap is mandated to increase by the same percentage according to the CBA.

Re: SB LVIII Most Watched Show In History. NOLA Next!
 

As an idea of the revenues that the individual teams are getting check this out. It matters not if the team goes 20-0 or 0-17 they all get equal shares of the revenues.
