The 10 o'clock news came second in the poll of 2,000 adults, ahead of Question Time and The X Factor.
Meanwhile, the Lord of the Rings trilogy were the movies most viewers fall asleep while watching. Titanic and The Hobbit made up the top three.
A spokesman for Premier Inn said: "Falling asleep in front of the TV is something we are all guilty of, even if it is our favourite TV show.
"At Premier Inn we are committed to ensuring our guests experience a good night's sleep guaranteed – so if Match of the Day or Question Time are tired Brits' TV night caps, guests can tune in and nod off peacefully to enjoy a good night's sleep."
