And the Oscar Goes to… Fewer TV Viewers

Three weeks after the Super Bowl recorded its biggest audience ever, Oscars viewership hit a new low.
The multiple ways to measure television audience means TV-ratings articles are full of lots of numbers. But by just about any way of measuring, Sunday’s broadcast of the 80th Academy Awards was a record low — at least for as long as such things have been measured. This year’s Oscars audience even trailed the season premiere of “American Idol.”

Hmmm..if you ask me, I'm actually glad for this bad news. I have never understood the fascination of multi-millionaire people walking around in a 300,000 dollar suit with a 4000 dollar haircuts and 1 million dollar value jewelry and I'm supposed to be emotional, when they gift each other with a meaningless gold statue for telling a script no more than a few lines long.

There's never been any point to the Oscars. Better off without them.

They're all a circle jerk for the rich. I'd rather watch the local Best Hobo Awards.

And the award for best crazy routine goes to Jack - The Greasy Mombo.

Don't forget the botox people with plastic surgery's.

probably just because they didn't have anything big up except maybe juno.

I think theyre a nice flashy event and you always need awards to make people try harder to work well.
But theyre really extravagant.
