When the last episode of Mash aired, I heard a TV commentator say that, after "Who Shot JR?", the third most-watched show of all time was an episode of the Beverly Hillbillies. My question is, what episode would that be? Or is this not true?

The early 1964 episode where Granny mistakes a kangaroo for a giant jackrabbit still holds the record for being the most-viewed half-hour show on television.
