DailyKenn.com — The reason behind the lowest-ever ratings for the Oscars — fewer than 10-million viewers — is blamed on (ahem) the virus.
The fact that the event had become a venting session for far-left millionaire extremists that alienated most everyone didn't factor into the decline of viewer interest, if we are to believe most normie media reports.
The previous low was set in 2020 when nearly 23.6-million viewers tuned in. That's a 58.3 percent decline in one year.
No one knows for certain why the Academy Award was nick-named "Oscar," though several notions exist.
"The first Academy Awards presentation was held on May 16, 1929, at a private dinner function at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel with an audience of about 270 people," according to wikipedia.com.
Given that awards shows this year have been plagued by production limitations and the overall effects of COVID-19 on the Hollywood landscape and entertainment consumption trends, news of the record lows in both metrics is no surprise. For instance, the 2021 Golden Globes drew a mere 6.9 million viewers and a 1.5 rating among adults 18-49, and the previous year’s ceremony dipped 2% in 2019 to an eight-year viewership low. Like the Academy Awards, the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards, hosted by Trevor Noah, was the lowest-rated in Grammys history, plummeting by nearly 53% compared to 2020’s show. Pandemic or not, awards show numbers, in general, have been in decline over the past few years.
