‘Alf,’ ‘Jake and the Fatman,’ ‘Major Dad’ Best ‘Lost’ In Finale Audience Size

May 25, 2010  •  Post A Comment

While "Lost’s" 13.5 million viewers tuning in for the show’s finale on Sunday is impressive, the show only ranks as the 55th most-watched series finale of all time, GQ reports. 

While pre-cable days had a larger concentration of viewers, shows like "Alf," "Major Dad," "Jake and the Fatman," and "JAG" had larger finale audiences than "Lost." 

Of course, they all have a long way to go to reach the number one, "M*A*S*H," with its 105.9 million viewers.

  1. None of the shows cited ran against another season finale! The Celebrity Apprentice sucked away a lot of viewers from Lost, especially with all the hype about Bret Michaels’ health issues.

  2. It’s a serialized show – if you didn’t watch the preceding 120 hours, you weren’t going to watch (or at least understand) the last two and a half hours. I don’t think that the Apprentice siphoned LOST viewers.
