The Super Bowl half time show was for the first time a celebration of West Coast hip hop, with veteran rappers and performers thrilling with their classic hits. Los Angeles-born Dr Dre opened the show, and was supported by his fellow Angelenos Snoop Dogg and Kendrick Lamar.The Californian trio were accompanied by Mary J. Blige, Eminem and 50 Cent. The six have a combined age of 286, making this year's Super Bowl show one of the 'oldest' - and yet also one of the best received. They also have a combined wealth of $983 million

Wow, there is absolutely nothing in that description that would have made me want to watch that halftime show. Nothing. Nada, zip, zero, zilch...
You couldn't have paid me to watch the Super Woke Bowl. But if you forced me to watch it at gunpoint, you would have had to shoot me when the halftime show started, because there is just no way!!!!! If they had tortured some cats, I would have rather listened to their screeches than a "rap and hip hop" show!!!

On another note, all of the ads I've seen, I either had no idea what they were advertising, and the ads themselves made no sense. Even the ones where they put up what they were advertising, such as Hellman's mayonnaise, still made no sense to me. Remember that fun year back in the 90's (I think) with all of the dot com ads, including the ones with cowpokes herding cats, all scratched up?? That was hilarious.

Worst ever. Quoting Charlie Kirk: The NFL is now the league of sexual anarchy. This halftime show should not be allowed on television.

I would love to see another marching band half-time show. Or a least one that I could understand the words in the songs. Does that make me racist?

Lady Chihuahua and I watched it for a while. I commented to her 'Times are a changin', and she turned off the TV. Felt absolutely no connection with the half time show. We turned the Super Bowl back on after it was over.

Same as #16. We turned OFF the TV at half time and cooked cheeseburgers (something American). The first commercial we saw was John Legend inviting us to sleep with him. I'm not an old prude but making veiled sexual comments seems inappropriate. Like others have said, we couldn't figure out what half the commercials were even selling. At least the game was pretty good overall.

The commercials and halftime show were dominated by blacks. NFL’s lame attempt to be woke. They are 13% of the population. Don’t try so hard. Everyone will end up being offended.

I turned the sound off after the first couple of minutes because it has just horrible. I looked up at one point and it looked like all those "dancers" looked like they were in the middle of having a seizure.
Just unwatchable.

I tried turning the sound up, then down, then up then off. Only the last step helped.

I knew from the names it was going to be a ghetto review, so it was banned from my tv in advance. I concur with the "rap is crap" comment.

I sampled moments of the half time show and enjoyed watching the clowns embarrass themselves.
Time to rethink the whole flawed notion of equity.

They must have only one choreographer in CA and she, he or it is terrible and hasn't produced a new stage dance since Britney Spears decided to become a sex symbol. Hip gyrations are about all they have to offer. All in all no talent, singing or dancing offered with so called music that is nothing but screaming put to drum beats. It resembled a geriatric version of Spanky and the gang putting on a show for the neighborhood kids.

I never watch halftime shows. Especially this one. I muted it and went to the next room. I was late returning, and missed the first touchdown of the second half. No way I want to hear or watch rappers.

Rap & hip hop are disgusting & vulgar, so they're a good fit for the NFL. Racist, boring, tedious.

It appears that the game stunk as much as the half-time show. Glad I missed the whole extravaganza.

Halftime show? Halftime has become the time to eat and go to the bathroom. I can't tell you one sponsor of a commercial except Bud and that didn't impress me.

The commercial trends I see:
- Way too many
- Unrecognizable products
- Many TV and movie ads
- No creative effort
Use to be Super Bowl commercials were a pinnacle moment. Now it seems like manufacturers are deciding not to waste the money. This has been going on for several years.

I remember watching an entire NFL season and either going to someone's house, hosting a party at my house or going out to a sports bar to watch the Super Bowl. Afterwards either taking the day off or braving coming into work with a hangover. Also enjoying the halftime show. Those days are long gone as the NFL has become a joke under the leadership of that pandering imbecile Roger Goodell. I didn't know anything about the teams and heard from co-workers that the halftime show stank. Count me in the group that just doesn't care anymore;
