Oscar Ratings Down for 2006
Oscar ratings are down again. Continuing the fall from 2005, this year's ratings dropped 8 percent. Some have sited the independent, small-budget nature of this year's films. I personally thought that this year's broadcast was better than last year's. Viewers were estimated at 38.8 million people. This was down 8 percent from 2005 and the worst since 2003, according to Nielsen Media Research. Except for the 2003 count of 33 million viewers when "Chicago" took the best-picture award, the Oscars hadn't dipped below 40 million viewers since 1987, Nielsen said.
