They should have hired Ricky Jervais. he would have stirred things up. It was a little political, not just Mr Kimmel.


It hit an all time low in ratings.

The telecast stumbles an unfortunate 19 percent from 2017.

A comparatively uneventful Oscar telecast led the way on TV Sunday night — though updated numbers have the telecast somewhat predictably stumbling to an all-time low.

The kudocast, nearly four hours long, stumbled 19 percent from the previous year to 26.5 million viewers. That's easily the least-watched Oscars in history, trailing 2008 by more than 5 million. Overnight returns had the lengthy ABC broadcast averaging a 18.9 rating among households between 8 and 11 p.m. ET. Compared to the same stat for 2017, the night the wrong best picture winner was named, that was down a more modest 16 percent.

Last year's Academy Awards, which earned a 22.4 overnight rating,

Jervais, he stirs both the liberals and conservatives. But I think he is a conservative atheist.

It's the lowest viewership ratings in history. It's just disgustingly too political.
