2008-Super-Bowl-XLII.jpg

Irrespective of how well it ranked in this week’s multitude of Super Bowl commercial lists, Nielsen found the Victoria’s Secret commercial to be the most viewed spot in the game reaching 103.7 million viewers when it ran at 9:44PM. Following Victoria’s Secret were Amp and a promotion for FOX’s American Idol which tied for second place with 103.6 million viewers. These figures are based on Nielsen’s live plus same day DVR viewing.

Because the game’s outcome came down to the wire, the fourth quarter was home to the top ten most viewed ads, all of which achieved 100 million views or more.

Research suggests that people who are willing to accept change as they get older live significantly longer than those who resist it — not because change is healthy but because resistance is expensive and the body pays a biological price for every year spent clenching against a reality it cannot control and that clenching is aging people faster than the change itself ever could

Behavioral science says people who still write grocery lists by hand instead of using their phone carry a relationship with preparation that was built in a kitchen where forgetting something meant going without — and the list isn’t about groceries, it’s about a nervous system that learned early that being unprepared has a cost and the pen is cheaper than the consequence
