Q: What TV episode remained the most

watched TV broadcast in American history

from 1983-2010?

A:  “Goodbye, Farewell and Amen” , the series

finale for M*A*S*H, which aired 2/28/83. It

held this spot until Super Bowl XLIV

surpassed it (in total viewership only) in

February 2010. It still remains the most

watched finale of any TV series and the

most watched episode.
