Just 8.8 million people tuned into the Grammy Awards on CBS this year, a new all-time low for the music awards show, according to near-final Nielsen ratings.
Why it matters: In a sign of how much the pandemic has sped up ratings declines for award shows, the Grammy's ratings were still the highest for any major award show in the past year.
The Golden Globes were viewed by just 6.9 million people this year, a record low. Viewership of the Emmys last September dropped 11% year-over-year to just 6.1 million viewers, another record low. Prior to Sunday, 2006 was the lowest-rated Grammy Awards with 17 million viewers.
What do they expect, when among the popular songs is a song which we can’t say the name of out loud, or print out the lyrics to such a song?
Let them wallow in their filthy smut. They’ve basically destroyed the entertainment biz.
Last time I watched them, Jethro Tull beat Metallica.
:D
So the Pandemic is to blame for lack of viewership? Who believes that????? Let’s face it, the music is crappy and all they do is celebrate each other and their liberal beliefs.
That “song” even offends Snoop Dogg.
He said(paraphrasing).... Damn, leave something to the imagination.
The pandemic?? Really?
Continuously lying to oneself is the reason bad things continue to happen to you.
The Oscars await. Must Miss TV. The Tonys I assume are canceled since Broadway is completely shut down. The last thing I recall from that was De Niro yelling F....Trump multiple times.
Are they still doing that? Is the Oscars still a thing too?

I saw Briana got an X-rating for her performance....unsurprisingly as she’s quite an obsessive exhibitionist. similar to the likes of Miley Cyrus.
Heh. Last time I watched the Oscars, Annie Hall beat Star Wars. The first one. :)
You win.
:D
Yeah, I was going to turn on my TV and watch it, but then I remembered there’s a pandemic, said nobody ever.
8.8 million viewers? Remind me again how many folks are employed in the music business.
You win.
How the Grammys have changed since they gave one to The Carpenters.
8.8 million viewers? Remind me again how many folks are employed in the music business.
Especially when BLM called for the burning down of America....yeah, I’d watch that...../s
I remember Robert Gulet and Frank Sinatra and lots of songs from musicals....
now, its filthy crap performed mostly by a certain segment of our society because apparently we don't count anymore....
