Nielsen has released the list of the 10 most-watched single telecasts of 2015, and to no surprise, the list is made up mainly of football telecasts. Other than the NFL and the College Football Playoffs, only the Oscars and an episode of NBC’s “The Blacklist” — airing on Super Bowl Sunday — made the top 10.
