Super Bowl Ratings At an All-Time Low

2/3/2014

After last night's Super Bowl, we might feel more unsatisfied than we ever have. "Why is that?", you may ask. Well if you haven't done your research or really even realize that very subtle Half-Time show was no more than uneventful and unsatisfactory, here are some stats that might make you understand that empty stomach you're feeling after The Big Game.

The Ratings

First and foremost, the ratings for The Super Bowl were just awful. From a study, for every man that was watching The Big Game, at least 8710 people were watching Monk and 37653 people were watching Bones. In fact, all 100% of the people that are reading this blog right now only watched The Day After Tomorrow on SYFY. Even scarier, the ratings are higher for people looking forward to watching Good Morning America the following morning. Don't ask me, I can't make up ratings.

The Commercials

Sadly, there were literally no sponsors for The Big Game other than SafeAuto. Okay that was a stretch, but the prices this year for a spot during commercial breaks were not even a fraction to past history's prices. Other sponsors consisted of Tab, Obama Care and Elysium on DVD now with extra bonus features, exclusive interviews with the stars and a couple deleted scenes. This year, the price for that spot for The Super Bowl might have been around 5 cents a second. 5 cents!? How does that make sense!? A recent poll might explain.

The Poll

In a recent study, it has been said that 99.5% of people in the US don't even care about The Super Bowl. In fact, the study showed that more people were watching The Big Game in the UK, Australia and even Iceland. I thought those countries would be more interested in Football (soccer for us).

The Half-Time Show

Not only did The Big Game feature a band that no one under 85 listened to or ever heard of, but they chose an artist that just no one has ever heard of at all. I can kind of understand why Red Hot Chili Peppers were chosen for The Super Bowl. They obviously aren't green, so we have some professionals on stage. But how can anyone expect most [consumers] to know who they are, or Bruno Mars for that matter?
