1. The ManningCast is a success. The ManningCast, which airs on ESPN2 for select Monday Night Football games, is an alternate telecast that draws more viewers than most shows on television these days thanks to Peyton and Eli Manning’s personalities. Plus, clips from the broadcast get shared all over social media, and blogs love to post recaps of each ManningCast.
Having said that, it does seem like the ManningCast has peaked, and the buzz just doesn’t seem to be there anymore.
Last year the show averaged 1.6 million viewers. Viewership peaked at 1.96 million for Giants-Chiefs in Week 8.
