Joe Millionaire: Most-Watched TV? Really?


One of these things is not like the other...this is a list of the top 10 TV episodes of the decade.

1. Friends, “The Last One,” May 6, 2004 — 52.5 million
2. Survivor: Borneo, “Season Finale,” Aug. 23, 2000 — 51.7 million
3. Joe Millionaire, “Season Finale,” Feb. 17, 2003 — 40 million
4. ER, “All in the Family,” Feb. 17, 2000 — 39.4 million
5. American Idol, “Minneapolis Auditions,” Jan. 16, 2007 — 38.1 million
6. Grey’s Anatomy, “It’s the End of the World,” Feb. 5, 2006 — 38 million
7. Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, May 3, 2000 — 36 million
8. Frasier, “Something Borrowed, Someone Blue,” May 18, 2000 — 33.7 million
9. Everybody Loves Raymond, “The Finale,” May 16, 2005 — 32.9 million
10. Spin City, “Goodbye,” May 24, 2000 — 32.8 million

The "Joe Millionaire" entry just sticks out like a sore thumb, doesn't it? You didn't think "reality" TV could get worse in 7 years, did you? And whatever happened to that Evan Marriott guy, anyway? Gay-for-pay porn? Country music singer? Ballpark hot dog vendor? Judging from the picture, I'm guessing porn...
