Most Watched Prime Time Series Finales
Posted: Thu Jan 03, 2019 4:31 pm
1. Post up with a U.S. prime time television show that you think is among the top 10 for number of viewers according to this article I read that references Nielson numbers. Prime time only. The series finale of a late night or day time show does not count.
2. After a few people have guessed, I will let you know where they rank and award points (see below). DO NOT GUESS AGAIN UNTIL AFTER I HAVE ACKNOWLEDGED YOUR PREVIOUS GUESS AND AWARDED POINTS. Multiple guesses after your first in a round will not count and will only help other players.
3. All guesses must be off the top of your head. No research of any sort is allowed. Especially don't look at the Wikipedia article for largest restaurant chains by locations.
4. 1 point will be awarded for every million viewers of a correct guess. For instance, if the series finale of Alf topped the list with 25 million viewers, then whoever guessed it will get 25 points.
5. The competition will go for some unknown number of rounds based on participation and enjoyment.
