Apparently the rest of the country took a dive in interest and tune-in:

USA Today
Ouch: Oscars ratings hit (another) all-time low, dropping 58%

You didn't think the Oscars would escape the ratings dive befalling every other awards show, did you?

Sunday's 93rd annual Academy Awards, held at Los Angeles' Union Station, plunged to 9.9 million viewers, according to preliminary Nielsen estimates. That's down 58% from last year's pre-pandemic 23.6 million viewers, then a record-low that was down by 6 million from 2019.

The Oscars claimed just 1.9% of adults ages 18 to 49, down from 5.3% in last year's preliminary results.

Oscars ratings drop 58% to new record low

They even have to bribe the so called celebrities to show up.

The lowest viewer ratings ever!!! I probably would have broken my 65” Sony if I had even seen them railing on Law Enforcement Officers like I heard they did.

Ungrateful ********.....

Here is what people said. I assume it is word-for-word.

The Oscars can show up on many platforms now so it is hard to get ratings unless they are also counting all of those.

I tuned in once in a while and taped it.

Nope, not at all. May look at the dresses the next day, but no Awards ceremony for me. Too many use it as a political platform to air their views.
of which I"m not the least bit interested. Who needs that? I did try to watch the Award movie, "Nomadland". Turned it off after about 20-25 minutes. Dull, plodding, dreary, etc. Not entertaining at all.
