The latest GOP debate edged out NFL football and beat everything else to score as last week's most-watched prime-time program, leaving Democrats and even Adele in the dust.

The Republican presidential faceoff (the party's fifth, this time from Las Vegas on Dec. 15) drew 18.17 million viewers to CNN, according to the Nielsen ratings company. Sunday's NFL game between Arizona and Philadelphia, aired on NBC, was the week's runner-up with 18.11 million viewers.

"Adele Live in New York," also aired by NBC, ranked 11th. It was seen by 11.27 million viewers.

Wait until the FOX debate in a few weeks with the top 6, the ratings will be YUGE.

Completely the wrong take - the high ratings were due to a massive campaign by LIV socialist totalitarians to use an Area Denial Strategy by using up as much bandwidth as possible to deny conservatives the opportunity to see their candidates. Thusly and so forth ... the Dem debate was the real winner because no conservatives used up the bandwidth and so on etc ... was seen by absolutely everyone in the country ... etc.

The Adele concert was the worst produced Televised concert I have ever seen.

Really? Fox is only going to have six? I would prefer four or five, but the trimming down is a GREAT improvement.
