FALLING OFF THE FUCKING CLIFF! Oscar Ratings Drop From All Time Low In 2020, to New All Time Low in 2021, A 58% Decline This Year

 

Oscars 2021: Ratings drop to an all-time low with unwatchable show

The Oscars ratings are in, and this year’s ceremony landed with a resounding whimper. 

About 9.85 million viewers tuned in, according to Variety, which is a more than 58% drop from last year’s all-time low of 23.6 million viewers. 2019’s ceremony garnered 29.6 million viewers. The ceremony landed a 1.9 rating for adults in the coveted 18 to 49 age demographic, a 64.2% drop from 2020.

Despite the dismal viewership, the 2021 Oscars were full of several surprises, shockers and  charming moments.

In the “charming” category was Daniel Kaluuya’s speech when he won Best Supporting Actor for “Judas and the Black Messiah” — and made an off-the-cuff sex joke about his parents, much to his mother’s dismay, judging from her reaction in the audience.

  1. They need to be much more flexible. How else can they suck their own hind ends?

  2. 20 years ago they drew an audience of 76 million. This year was 13% of that.
