#32: Gloria Estefan and Olympic Figure Skaters

The 1992 ‘Winter Magic’ pageant in Minnesota featured Dorothy Hammill, Brian Boitano, and Gloria Estefan against a backdrop of giant snowmen and quirky dancing imps to Queen’s hits. However, its charm was overshadowed by In Living Color’s live comedy special, which drew audiences away with its fresh approach to Super Bowl halftime entertainment.

The game itself averaged approximately 79.6 million viewers in the United States. However, during the halftime show, an estimated 20 to 25 million viewers switched to Fox’s special live episode of “In Living Color,” leading to a significant drop in CBS’s viewership.
