The 83rd Academy Awards turned out to be quite a dull event. The audiences were not entertained and they did not enjoy as much as they did in the past years, according to a Hollywood Reporter.
In comparison to last year, the Oscar ceremony witnessed a fall of 10%. In the beginning of this year other prestigious award ceremonies such as the Grammys, the Golden Globes and others countered high ratings while Oscars just managed to make 37.6 million total viewers.
Audiences often criticized the poor presentation of young hosts James Franco as well as Anne Hathaway. The 3 hour plus event delivered a rating of 11.7 with a 11% drop in the advertiser-friendly category.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, upto now this was the worst Oscar telecast as James Franco was too detached and Hathaway as overeager.
This year, unfortunately the award winners were not new. Most of the winners had won awards in the equivalent categories in other award ceremonies earlier this year.
