The answer is obviously CBS. It's been the #1 Network for MANY years. And still is. There's probably been more top 20 shows on that network in the last 50 years, than all the networks top 20's combined, LOL.

yea from 1955 until 1976 CBS was the top network and it usually wasn't even close. Since then it's usually been the #1 or #2 network.

CBS, followed by NBC and then ABC.... it took ABC a long time to even get anywhere close to NBC's second place ratings...
