In Living Color Halftime Show

From the NFL.com website, 100 greatest game changers.

In 1992, FOX decided to air a live episode of “In Living Color,” its hit comedy sketch show starring Jim Carrey and the Wayans Brothers (among others) to compete with halftime programming on CBS, which was airing the game. The “In Living Color” episode drew over 20 million viewers, and sparked changes to the Super Bowl halftime show moving forward. The following year, for Super Bowl XXVII, Michael Jackson gave an epic concert performance – and the halftime show has been a cultural phenomenon and mass media extravaganza ever since.

I had NO idea In Living Color forced the NFL to step up its Super Bowl halftime show.
