TV Ratings: 2018 Grammys Tumble From Recent Years
2018-01-29
But, but, they had Hillary, and "Fire and Fury" readings, and "Woke" shit and all!!??11
Golly. I missed readings? Just what I would go to a music award show to hear.
[HollywoodReporter] The CBS telecast is down a steep 21 percent from 2017 in early numbers, potentially spelling an all-time low.

Sunday's Bruno Mars-loving Grammy Awards took a steep ratings spill by the first-available metrics.

The show, which ran a bloated three-and-a-half hours, was off an unfortunate 21 percent from 2017 in early numbers. Overnight returns from Nielsen Media give it a 12.7 rating among households ‐ marking its biggest drop since the 2013, the year after the show swelled following the death of Whitney Houston.

Such a steep drop, however, could very well mean an all-time low for the calendar's biggest music awards show once updated numbers arrive.

Band of Brothers. However, you were waiting for the DVD/Blu-ray right?

#5  They had to move the exciting Farmer's Open Golf playoff to Golf Channel to make way for the preening red carpet exhibitionists. Well done, elites!

#3  ...Guess what, Hollywood? If the Resistance ain't making money for the network, it ain't gonna be televised - or at least not like that. Look for a MUCH shorter and to-the-point show next year.

#2  The Super Bowl has all those cute commercials, and it has historically been an excuse to party. But I seem to recall that advertising prices are down this year, which is suggestive.
