      This wasn't the Super Bowl halftime show, which was airing on CBS. The Super Bowl halftime was "A tribute to Winter" with Gloria Estefan, etc. In Living Color aired a live episode on FOX and pulled all of CBS viewers away. The Men On Football skit was the final skit of the episode. There was a "Countdown Timer" in the corner when it was live.
