did you enjoy your superbowl party yesterday? well apparently so did a lot of people. superbowl xliv has officially taken its place as the most-watched program in USA history! more than 106.5 million people tuned in to see the saints prevail over the colts yesterday.

in comparison, last year’s superbowl garnered 98.7 million. the superbowl has surpassed the last record-holder, 1983′s finale of “m*a*s*h”, which boasted 105.97 million viewers. but hey, how many fewer television sets were there back in ’83? i went to a party at a house with 22 tv’s, for pete’s sake! regardless, superbowl xliv is now the reigning ratings champ.

check out a few commercials that made the game even more interesting!
