I think a lot of people turned it off after Heath won. I think it never helps that the show drags for so long. I think they should skip the red carpet crap and start the show at 8EST and try to get the thing over at 11EST that would help the ratings a lot.

Ahh, sorry. Well, blame the stupid site as well. They got my hopes up, too. To first report 36 million viewers and that the ratings improved as the show went on, and then change it to 33.6 million viewers and a diminishing audience as the show went on are quite the different results! I don't understand how they screwed that up.

Peace,'
Mike

^ Also slightly up on 18-49. ABC/Academy must be relieved.

Oh apparently the 33.6 million number does not include the 11PM hour.

That's not the primetime hour so it doesn't surprise me there are no numbers in fast nationals for that.

Also of note: These early numbers for live broadcasts are consistently underestimated by about 10%, so the final number should be closer to 37 million. Low by Oscar standards, but that beats pretty much every non-football telecast from this and last season, so, woot.

It's higher than 2002 and last year, so it wasn't a disaster.

Wouldn't it have been more appropriate (and a ratings stunt?) had Christian Bale presented Best Cinematography? :unsure:

Awards Daily is now reporting it as 36.3 million, 13% jump from last year.

I think that's more like it.
