[edit] Reference for Guinness record

The article makes the following claim: "An episode of La Petite Vie holds the Guinness World Record for the highest market share ever achieved by a single television program." I've had no luck tryiing to find this on the Guinness website. Can anyone give an actual citation? If not, it should be removed. Sunray 00:15, August 16, 2005 (UTC) _____ I agree... I´ve not got any success either in finding that. None of that appears on the website.


I can't find a good reference for it anymore, either, but the claim certainly has been made in the media previously; it involved an episode in the late 1990s (possibly the finale, I'm not sure) cracking approximately 85% of all television households in Quebec. TVHat references it here [1], but they don't indicate a source either. I'm okay with removing it if we can't find corroboration, but for what it's worth I certainly didn't make the claim up; I just can't remember which newspaper I originally saw it in.
