Ratings Plummet For 2022 Emmys, Crashing to All-Time Low in Viewership

OPINION | This article contains the author's opinion.

Many Americans have turned their backs on “woke” Hollywood and now it’s beginning to show in the ratings.

On Monday night, the Emmy Awards were shown on NBC but only managed to receive 5.9 million viewers, according to Variety.

This is an all-time low for the awards ceremony. Viewership plummeted by more than a 25% from the 7.9 million viewers who watched on CBS in 2021.

Although the ratings for award shows have already been declining in recent years, this shows how Hollywood’s problems are only getting worse.

Critics say the industry is no longer focused on entertainment, but rather using its platform to lecture Americans and push a radical left-wing political agenda.

To put it simply, people don’t care about Hollywood awards…

The only one with courage to stand up to the nonsense was Ricky Gervais when he roasted the Golden Globes in 2020. He made it clear celebrities really don’t matter, and people loved it.

Instead of leaning into what Gervais did, award shows seem content to just hemorrhage viewers around the clock.

While the ESPYs and Oscars saw bumps in 2022 from the 2021 numbers, viewership is still laughably bad. The 2022 Oscars had 16.6 million viewers and the ESPYs had 2.3 million viewers.
