Perhaps they should hold the next two debates by remote feed, and not in person.
So when one candidate is given time to present his points or answer questions, the moderator can mute the other candidate and prevent interruptions.
Or just let the moderator use shock collars when they interrupt each other and start yelling.
Well, that would probably increase the ratings, as well... but then the viewers would likely be cheering on both to interrupt each other just for the LULZ...
Anyway, the Commission on Presidential Debates (not to be confused with
The Commission) has now released the following statement:

The Commission on Presidential Debates sponsors televised debates for the benefit of the American electorate. Last night’s debate made clear that additional structure should be added to the format of the remaining debates to ensure a more orderly discussion of the issues. The CPD will be carefully considering the changes that it will adopt and will announce those measures shortly. The Commission is grateful to Chris Wallace for the professionalism and skill he brought to last night’s debate and intends to ensure that additional tools to maintain order are in place for the remaining debates.
