Doubtful. 76 million doing anything together in unison is pretty much a universal impossibility.

This is unfeasible to people who grew up entirely under the shadow of the internet, but it's the way the world worked for a long time.

>Green Day - Good Riddence (Time of Your Life

For a show that's supposed to be about nothing and emphasizes no sentimentality or learning, they sure chose a very sentimental song to end the show with.
>>
>>214498981
I was there. I was a teenager whose parents watched every episode. Unless I see proof, I refuse to believe that 76 million Americans were watching the live broadcast.

>>214498881

back in the glory days of network TV top rated prime time shows could get audiences of 30 - 35 million on a weekday. The 1970s was the last decade of dominance for the old big three tv networks. By the 80s there was cable and home video to compete for viewers.

>>214499647
Just show it in 4:3 pillarbox wtf are these executives thinking
>>
>>214499787

>>214500032
i could have sworn they caved and gave you the option to choose aspect ratios but i may just be getting it confused with the simpsons
>>
>>214500059
this is the greatest TV show of all time, unironically
>>
>>214498541
It was such a big event that Apple made a special version of their think different commercial with Jerry Seinfeld in it that just aired once during the finale.

TV was already a fully saturated market by 1983, literally everyone had one. And it was before cable TV, so the viewing audience was concentrated into only a few channels. When the Seinfeld finale aired, they had to compete with hundreds of other channels. So the Seinfeld finale numbers are actually far more impressive.
>>
>>214500414
That's a whole lot of mental gymnastics
>>
>>214500414
roughly 80 million American households had a television in 1983 compared to 210 million in 1998, way more than double
>>
>>214500510
There aren't even 210 million households in America today retard.
>>
>>214500240
LMAO faggot boomers care about mash
>>
>>214500558
Thanks Biden
>>
>>214498541
That must've so awkward to witness, imagine half the country watching the finale of a show and it sucks bad with almost no humor
>>
>>214500414

wow the gulf war got great ratings , its no wonder the tv news was always cheerleading for more wars.
>>
who the fuck thought of making it a clip show. literally the worst possible idea
>>
>>214501066
I've never actually bothered watching those when i'm marathoning it anyway. are there any new scenes at all?
>>
>>214501066
Not only was the finale just a bunch of flashback clips to earlier, better episodes but the episode immediately before it was a literal clipshow. I don't know how they fucked up the finale so bad
>>
>>214498541
And yet it will never be as good as Frasier
>>
>>214498541
All corrupted. Disguating. Don't spam judaism. People wronged by this filth may be healed in time maybe.

>[Dallas' Who shot J.R.? episode] was, at the time, the highest-rated television episode in U.S. history.
>It had a Nielsen rating of 53.3 and a 76% share, and it was estimated that 83 million people watched the episode, more than the number of voters in that year's presidential election.
>The episode was an international event, with more than 350 million people tuning in to find out who shot J.R. A session of the Turkish parliament was suspended to allow legislators a chance to get home in time to view the conclusion of the cliffhanger.
