Andy Samberg's Paul the Octopus helps bring in the ESPY ratings!

Well, Seth and Will Ferrell helped too...

The Saturday Night Live-flavored ESPY Awards, hosted by Seth Meyers and featuring current SNL cast member Andy Samberg and alum Will Ferrell, averaged 2.6 million viewers from 9-11:30 PM last night. The awards' 18-49 audience was 1.7 million, which is up 30% from last year, when the ESPYs ran on Sunday.

Steve Carrell and Paul Rudd also helped:



They're promoting their new movie, Dinner For Schmucks.
