It's not an Oscars problem as much as it is a network TV problem. Everything is in decline compared to streaming. --- rip to all the animals killed in wildfires. <cite>Wetterdew posted [p:934245700] in Is it true... [t:78398361]...</cite> <quote>"Oscars are on ABC?

If it was streamed it would have seen record numbers.

Darmik 02/11/20 7:22:32 PM #8:	I'm curious to see how the Oscars would do if it was available to stream worldwide.

When the oscars come around, I usually find a bootleg stream online, which means of course that my viewership doesn't count toward their numbers. Though this year I watched at a friend's house. --- rip to all the animals killed in wildfires. <cite>Wetterdew posted [p:934246919] in Is it true...

Wetterdew 02/11/20 7:39:04 PM #14:	I would also wager that on average there were fewer people watching per device for the VGAs compared to the oscars. Oscars are shown on TV, which means it's likelier to be in a common area, and people are likelier to group up and watch them together (and oscar viewing parties aren't uncommon). The VGA on the other hand have a lot of people watching at their computer desk or on their phone even, more likely to be watching alone. --- rip to all the animals killed in wildfires. <cite>Wetterdew posted [p:934247375] in Is it true...
