Oscar Viewership Hits All-Time Low With 23.6 Million

Deadline ^ | February 10, 2020 | Nellie Andreeva

[olesigh]

I am addicted to movies and I tape the oscars and fast forward thru a lot. Like whenever Jane Fonda is on. How they can glorify her like last night is beyond me but it’s part of the sickness.

[mewzilla]

Is February still a sweeps month?

If so, that’s why it’s in February.

For all the good it did them.

[Skooz]

I watched some old episodes of The Office. Didn’t even know the awards were on. Didn’t care.

[Leep]

I would rather have a Oscar Mayer wiener with brown mustard and onion and relish.

[EdnaMode]

Viewership dropped each hour:

[Future Snake Eater]

Just wasn’t in the same league in my opinion as some of the others, particularly Parasite.

Haven't seen it yet, but it's on the list for sure.

[mewzilla]

Anyone know if ABC had to offer make-goods this year to sell airtime?

[Okeydoker]

I think you will like it. After I saw it I told my wife this will win best director and best picture.

[Gargantua]

Bad Piss went political and ruined his own evening.

[skinndogNN]

I didn’t realize there was that many GAY people in the US.

[Howie66]

Easily predictable.

I will go on record to say that next year’s (2021) Oscar’s “show” will have even fewer viewers. My guess is by Minus 19%.

[max americana]

No. If Hitlery or Obamatard shows up. They should just call it the DNC Awards Show.

[FLT-bird]

I don’t believe I’ve ever watched any of those awards shows. Why would anybody be interested in watching a bunch of Hollywood types pat themselves on the back and bloviate about things they know nothing about for hours on end?

[minnesota_bound]

#1 They will, they will.

[sanjuanbob]

So if I said in public that I’m glad I’m not queer....same acceptance? Has she opened up a Pandora’s box?

[GOPJ]

Well, we can start with the idea 63 million Americans might not want to be insulted for three hours...

[originalbuckeye]

I was just reading about Joaquin Phoenix’s speech and he used the word queer also......I think you’re good to go.

[dougherty]

We were watching the Impractical Jokers and American Pickers, did not realize the Oscar were on and wouldn’t have watched anyway.

[LeonardFMason]

I wonder if HOLLYWOOD feels the black tar around their ankles?

What kind of industry expects to survive when they go out of their way to offend 150,000,000 possible customers?

The Oscars, White House Correspondents Dinner, and the Daily WH news briefings are thankfully receding from importance.

Thank you President Trump!

[Libloather]

...a first Best Picture recipient not in the English language in Parasite adding an element of surprise...

They really do need to announce this stuff in advance.
