New York Post Reports: The numbers are in, and the ceremony was not watched across the globe.
The 2023 Golden Globes on Tuesday night hit a historic low in viewership numbers, bringing in just 6.3 million people, according to data from Nielsen. For comparison, at the height of the pandemic, in 2021, the broadcast drew 6.9 million, while 2020 boasted 18.3 million viewers.
Hosted by comedian Jerrod Carmichael, the show, which aired on NBC, started with a bang, as he addressed the elephant in the room — and the reason why last year’s telecast was cancelled — about the lack of diversity among the Hollywood Foreign Press, the awards’ parent organization. He also got in a zinger about Scientology‘s allegedly missing First Lady, Shelly Miscavige.
The Globes’ lack of diversity and inclusion may have been enough to keep some viewers tuned-out this year. Meanwhile, as the anti-“woke” warriors of Twitter would indicate, a more self-aware awards show wouldn’t be enough to get them interested.
