(Green) monster ratings for Red Sox games

No surprise but the World Series scored several homeruns in the Boston TV ratings games.
The finals, which aired on Fox affiliate WFXT-Ch. 25, drew 1.4 million viewers in Game One Oct. 23. In fact, the five most-watched programs that week belonged to the Red Sox. (That's almost like everyone in Boston proper, Cambridge, Brookline and Somerville had their TV sets tuned into the finals.) That's (Green) monster ratings!

Also of note, AMC's "Walking Dead" ranked #19 with 206,000 total viewers tying with a "Big Bang Theory" special and "How I Met Your Mother." And NCIS from CBS was the most watched scripted series after the Red Sox games.

Here's the list of most watched programs in Boston from Oct. 21-27, according to Nielsen. 


1. WFXT-FOX World Series Game 1  1.491 million
2. WFXT-FOX  World Series Game 2   1.3 million
