2017 Oscar Awards Least Watched Since 2008

Sandra Rose February 27, 2017

The numbers are in. Even Warren Beatty’s Best Picture flub couldn’t save Sunday night’s Oscar Awards snooze fest. ABC viewers tuned out in droves as spoiled leftwing celebrities threatened to turn the 2017 Oscars telecast into their anti-Trump political platform.

The 2017 Oscars telecast clocked in at 3 hours and 49 minutes — the longest Oscars telecast in 10 years. Early numbers show the telecast averaged 22.4 rating among metered market households.

With 34.3 million viewers tuning in, Sunday’s telecast ranks 3rd as the lowest watched in 17 years.

The 2008 ceremony hosted by Jon Stewart comes in 1st with a dismal 20.8 overnight rating and only 32 million viewers.

Good thang Strong White Woman explained these ratings already last night. Scroll through the old posts if you want the education.

Soooo this article is complete bs. It is written in a bias privileged way. So it is ok to overlook Casey Affleck’s charges because: 1) his victims didn’t kill themselves; 2) he handled it “better” publicly; and 3) his acting was better in his nominated film opposed to Nate’s.

A lot of the country avoided the show as a protest against Hollywood. That was the buzz all over the NET how nobody wanted to hear a lot of political speeches from Liberal Hollywood.

What post? I would love to read his commentary.

Hey y’all!!!

So we ain’t getting a nicki/remy post??
Araminta Glissade Chaines

Mahershala Wins post. Here’s what was fonted:

“The 2017 Oscar awards will likely be among the lowest rated broadcasts as viewers tune out due to the political grandstanding of spoiled celebrities”

Lmao! No rest fur di wicked as my great great Haitian grandmother would say? If this broadcast turns out to be low in numbers it’s because all awards shows have become low in viewership as new media has exploded. It’s why the MTV-BET awards are being aired on several different networks simultaneously. Same with the Sag awards on TNT and TBS. Too much competition. Too many channels. Too many outlets. If viewership followed politics the ratings would be up much like Hillary’s final tally, no???? Has nothing to do with the political beliefs of celebs. If that’s the case Mel Gibson’s pack of ni**ers ass wouldn’t even be there? I see you alt righters though. Y’all stay ready! Like Suga Free? Victory shall be yours, like Stewie G? All alternative, truthfully #barz”
iWasteTime

Anyone catch the name of that Will Smith/Netflix movie ?

Honestly, it’s long. It’s boring. I (bolded) don’t like JK jokes. Snooze fest. We live in a world where acceptance speeches and winners are announced on SM immediately.

Taraji snubbed a winner last night. I also heard her say “hmm,” before the camera went back to them and she announced the guy. I saw something in her attitude last night, I don’t agree with.
Irony

Thank you!
Blaque Mahogany

Funny you should mention that. I don’t care about her snubbing anyone but the way she inserted herself into the Remy Ma and Nicki Minaj beef…was interesting. I don’t know how to explain it. She even kinda remarked about it on the red carpet.

The bus tour segment was dope. Jimmy asked that black man was he avoiding all the white actors. He said “I am” LMAO. I died.

We gonna be US no matter what…
KDub

Yep. Her character Cookie was mentioned by Rem in SHE-ther and she has previously been on SNL dragging the life outta Minaj in a skit. She also liked Remy’s levels of petty post I think.
missmiami305

Lmao!!!!!!!! He was honest
MissyJ

A lot of of the folks that were mentioned on the track had something to say.. I’ll have to see if this was a “snub” or her being human and having an opinion on the Oscar tip
missmiami305

I didn’t see it but maybe she’s just over Hollywood and their bs. U know sometimes we have to be in the mood to front with them folks and maybe yesterday was a bad day for her.
chris

Birth of a nation was snubbed.
KcoolMuziq

I thought Jimmy Kimmel did a great job. As long as the African American community was represented in nominations & wins. I could care less about who tuned in. I’m sure the ones that didn’t tune in knew that we were going to be represented this year..
Chardonnai

I think she knew Hidden Figures wasnt gonna win.

She wasnt personally nominated for anything…
Irony

I understand. I really like her, but that I thought was ugly. I’m going to see if i can find it. I could be thinking too much into it, but Janelle embraced the guy Taraji stepped back like he was contagious. Lol Again maybe everyone else can analyze it.
puppylove

Oh well, i never watch anyway. Too damn long.

It’s a fake video. They covered his video w her song. But she definitely played sb out after they broke up so her time is coming lol

if you find it post it. you know she a round the way girl so she prolly wasn’t feeling their bs.

Taraji aint here for the fakeness, I’m not mad. We dont have to act like we happy when we are not.

It is being said this video is fake, but he a fcukboi so it wouldn’t surprise me if it was real. They caught him singing fake friends in the club.

She knew that 13th or I am not your Negro should have won for best Documentary.

Who gives a shyt about OJ. A documentary dedicated to Nicole Brown coke snorting ass. All hail to the Sprite woman. Blah blah blah…FOH.
Strong White Woman

Let me go cut n paste my explanation for this before the trumpettes take credit for dismantling and defeating the so called “over rated” overly liberal Hollywood. Hold Please?
Elevated Soul

LOL@ this “too real” write-up!

I rarely go to the movies so i don’t even know who these people are.I did however hear that the Black man who won probably did so because the movie contained some very explicit homosexual scenes.I believe Viola Davis won as well.
Wile E. Coli

It is impossible to tell why people win, whether they earned it or it is PC.
Not to mention that Hollywood could spend a year making the worst films of all time , and they would still pat themselves on the back every year.

It really isn’t worth watching anymore.
Jackie Mason had it right. “A toilet is more important”

Her ass really still riding with the Im black lie vs turning into the cave demon she was born as and embracing her damn white priv. so she can get a job and take care of her kids. I have NEVER seen anything LIKE it. Gone head Rachael. Be the white woman you were born as. Its okay. We dont want you anyways.
Lorenzo Chaps

It’s not that it’s the Oscars. It’s more of having to sit in one spot for almost 4 hours, in the most uncomfortable digs possible. After all these years, the interactions tween blacks and whites at the Oscars is still forced, yet awkward.

The ending with Warren Beatty was horrendous. A felt bad for LALA and Moonlight. Moonlight will never get that moment back and Lala will never live down the humiliation of it all. Horrible, horrible, horrible.
MissyJ

She can’t get a new job. That’s her problem. She said she on food stamps cause nobody got love for her
LadyFrance

1% African. She could’ve kept that to herself.
Strong White Woman

Or maybe she’s going through some things. I saw her interject herself into the Remy/Nicki feud the other day? I was like? She clearly chose sides and called Remy Nicki’s karma. I was like hmmm this is a bit messy for someone who’s not an Instagram model or YouTube celeb.lol. It’s possible she’s going through something? I didn’t see the Oscar moment that is being discussed, but I got my eye on ??
Chardonnai

Cause she knows Ava and james Baldwin got snubbed.
KDub

I think she feels as if her struggling is showing solidarity somehow. Rachael needs to get some mental help.

That’s why the gonna change her name. Too much infamy. And what jobs she applying for? Hopefully nothing at a university, and nothing having to do with minority rights.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, death to Viola’s wig/weave.
LadyFrance

I believe so too. Why else go to the media about you being on foodstamps and about to lose your job. Step in line with the MILLIONS of people, white, black etc. That dosnt make a person special. It just means they are going through a struggle. She is partially blaming this MESS on not being able to label herself as TRANS-BLACK. WTF is that? You cannot just put on “being black” like a coat or a hat. Its who you are. We can’t just all of a sudden claim to be a white woman and expect to be treated as such. GTFOH! She can easily empathize with the black struggle and life as it is from her position as a WHITE WOMAN. More volume would be shown to the demographic she “says” she is trying to change (white people) if she stayed in her lane and showed that as a WHITE WOMAN she can see us as human beings and not as a fad or a trend. Her very actions, verbage and thoughts towards us and about us defeat any good she had delusions of doing. And FYI incase she forgot, WE DONT NEED A WHITE SAVIOR. WE ARE CAPABLE ON OUR OWN TO DELIVER OURSELVES
http://batman-news.com Roderick2011

She’s a Trump supporter.
Facts like Trump hiring foreigners at Mara-La-Go and his winery in Virginia didn’t keep people like ES from believing that Trump was against immigrants.

The Best Picture mix up wasn’t the only blunder. Awarding that piece of trash Best Actor over Denzel was too much the Best Picture blunder was just the icing on the cake. Birth of a Nation gets no nominations after receiving positive refuse and Oscar talk and Nate doesn’t get a invite b/c of sexual assualt charges that happened in 98/99. That he wasn’t even found guilty of that someone decided to bring back up 18yrs later. Yet casey affleck who has been accused of rape and sexual by 2 women more recently gets an invite and wins an Oscar that wasn’t deserved.??

This lady went IN.
“However, the biggest difference between Parker’s story and Gibson and Affleck’s stories is that Gibson and Affleck are wealthy, well-connected, and white. Gibson has been a Hollywood superstar for decades. Affleck isn’t as well known as the other Affleck, but the other Affleck is his brother.

Nate Parker was a relatively unknown actor on the cusp of making it big. He didn’t have the connections or the wealth necessary to make his scandal disappear. He was also black, and his alleged victim was white. Parker’s story fit neatly into that old American horror story of the pure and innocent white woman menaced by the sexually aggressive black man — that story that so neatly combines misogyny and racism — which imbued it with staying power.”

trust me i get it. i’m natural as well and some days man oh man. it can be a time. our hair requires a lot more maintenance and sometimes i don’t have the patience either. so i totally get it. especially being responsible for my two daughters who have a head full of hair. washing, detangling and styling can easily take 4 hours and that’s on a good day for one head. u have to be in the mood and on the days that you’re not, grab a wig lol
missmiami305

i know.

yeah i seen Denzel at the ABFF too. if big name acclaimed folk start coveting it like orpah and the likes it’d be a force to be reckoned with

Congratulations to Viola Davis being the first black woman to win an Oscar, Tony & Emmy.

thats the sad thing, especially when you know the card are stacked in you favor win lose or draw. cant stand to take an L against a black male or woman…smh
Erin Blockabitch

I’m not sure who “we” are, but I took the awards show seriously, as I take the ABFF Independent films shown on Aspire. Unless they’re better actors and actresses than I think they are, the awards recipients seemed really enthusiastic about their honors, and rightfully so. It is truly the best awards show I’ve ever seen. TBH, white folks who run the Oscars, GRAMMYs, etc. should watch the ABFF Awards and take copious notes.
Chardonnai

Whoopi was the first. She has an EGOT.
DroneRivers

Whoopi does. AND a Grammy. She is one of the rare EGOTs.
CrunchyBlack1

exactly oh well. i know being accepted by all your peers means something but denzel need just come on back home lol

You can’t help it

Super pretty. What are the lengths?
Darkandlovely617?

Hmmm, think I misinterpreted then!
I think I took being presentable and replaced with not caring ?
Erin Blockabitch

I don’t believe they like to lose against one another. They just play the role that they’re proud for their fellow white actor or actress when they lose to them. It’s like a sigh of relief rather than them truly conceding.
Darkandlovely617?

Let me see ??
CrunchyBlack1

some dont seem as though its a true honor unless whites are giving it to them.

Carolina Blue

Maybe….

“White Approval” says it all. Viola got one so we can stop hearing her cry about it!

Making your own gives your more control plus it’s relaxing to me

Unfortunately, I’ve learned from experience. I can think of at least 2 occasions my head has been looking rough and my boo at the time just handed me money to get my hair done.
puppylove

That’s not what you said, but, carry on.
CrunchyBlack1

true no one likes to lose, but to lose against blacks in an industry who tried to keep them out.. has to hurt more than losing against another white millionaire
Carolina Blue

Ohhh….well school me sis. I don’t know anything about it.

Some wigs are thin, when you make your own, you can add as much or little hair as possible.

It’s possible that Jimmy Kimmel had something to do with Warren Beatty having the duplicate best actress envelope. He is famous for practical jokes and I wouldn’t be surprised.
Luvn_it

Sh!t I can actually believe it b/c some of those other guys gave way better performances especially Denzel.?

I am so happy Moonlight won. Bruce Willis and Cybill Shephard are my favorites!!!

Lauren London gained weight, and EJ is embarrassing lol
what?why

Reason: their political views are arrogant, unintelligent,way out of bounds. Celebs are entertainers – nothing more, nothing less.
