Emmys Draw Record-Low Ratings With 4.3 Million Viewers
Despite pulling out all of the stops, ratings for the Emmy Awards hit a record-low this year.
Straying from its typical fall schedule due to last year’s historic strikes, this was the first time ever the Emmy Awards aired against an NFL playoff game which likely also played a role. Steeped in nostalgic TV hits of the last century, Monday night’s Emmy Awards telecast featured several TV reunions which included the cast of “Martin,” “Cheers,” the original cast of “Grey’s Anatomy,” as well as moments with “All in the Family” and made history as the most diverse Emmy Awards viewers have seen from the TV Academy with a significant number of people of color like Niecy Nash, “Beef’s” Ali Wong and Steven Yeun, and Ayo Edibiri accepting awards across drama, comedy, limited, reality and variety series categories. In addition to the four wins the series accrued at the Creative Arts Emmys, that puts the show’s total at 10 awards.
