What is America Watching?

You have a digital cable TV subscription, and now you'd like to know what America is watching? Nielsen Media is a research firm that measures the viewership of American cable and broadcast TV programs each week. It is common to see sports and kids' programming dominating these charts, though USA Network's "WWE Entertainment" and "Burn Notice" frequently hold strong positions. Last week, Nickelodeon's "SpongeBob SquarePants" occupied nine of the top 20 spots. It's not uncommon to see this yellow, porous character attract strong viewership - though last week was special, as it was SpongeBob's 10 year anniversary. Of the 50 episodes that Nick aired during a super-marathon, 49 of them landed a spot on the top 100 list. Do not underestimate the popularity of this weaselly character!

With a Time Warner Cable subscription, you can watch America's favorite TV programs including "SpongeBob SquarePants," "NCIS," "Hannah Montana," "Royal Pains," and more, as well as special sports events including the NBA Playoffs and the NFL Super Bowl.
