Ratings for the 81st Annual Academy Awards on Sunday night were up significantly over last year’s telecast, the least-watched Oscars on record. Nielsen’s preliminary estimates show an average of 36.3 million viewers tuned in to the three- hour-plus awards show on ABC, a 13 percent increase over the 32 million who watched in 2008. Oscar ratings are down considerably from an all-time high of 55 million in 1998, when “Titanic” dominated the awards; two years ago 40.2 million viewers tuned in. ABC easily won the night over all.

I wonder why so many people tuned in to watched the Oscars, as we all know the Oscars is always kinda boring, but this year WOW the way they announced the categories and all that was just so boring and LONG......but for some reason people watched the show and they got some really good ratings. I watched the show just because of Rob Patz and Brangelina.....and obviously to see the dresses!!!!
