The Seattle Seahawks' dominant performance in Super Bowl XLVIII, defeating the Denver Broncos 43-8, was watched by an average audience of 111.5 million people, more than any television program in U.S. history, the NFL announced Monday. The game surpassed the previous mark of 111.3 million set by a much more closely contested Super Bowl XLVI on NBC. The game is also now the most-watched program ever on FOX, breaking the 111.0 million viewer mark the network set for Super Bowl XLV. Three of the last four Super Bowls set average viewership records. Super Bowl XLVIII posted a 46.4/69, matching the household rating and share for Super Bowl XLVII a year ago, according to fast national figures issued Monday by Nielsen, and both, along with Super Bowl XVIII and XIX tie, as the seventh highest-rated Super Bowls ever. Interest in the game, the first Super Bowl ever played in an outdoor, cold-weather location, and the nation's No. 1 media market, was unprecedented.
