Ryan Seacrest Bombs as Emmys Host
Sunday’s 59th Primetime Emmy Awards tanked in the ratings!
It scored the lowest ratings ever for the awards show franchise, a 4.3 rating/11 share among adults 18-49 — which is down 17% from last year.
Only 13.1 million viewers tuned in, making it the second worst in history!
The record low was in 1990, when it aired on Fox and drew 12.3 million. Last year when the show aired on Aug. 27 on NBC, it lured 16.2 million viewers.
SEACREST OUT!!!!!

Yes, because of him, I did not watch it last night.
I love Ryan but I dont care for the actors and the shows.
3rd most hated person in the world (1st Jennifer A, Angelina J) and now Ryan. Why exactly? Oh yeah because Angelina does not like him. What a joke. Amazing that American Idol is one of the highest rated shows and he has hosted that for how long? People do not watch award shows anymore and most of on a FOX.
Seacrest or Whoopi the Emmys will bomb. The winners are flukes because there are no great competitions.
All the great actors and actresses are mostly in the movies now.
There is nothing award winning about very many shows….
They go on and on about who is wearing what…(who cares)
Real actors on television shows are a hell of a lot more interesting than a nimrod like Hayden Pantierre, ANY of the desperate housewives….
Ryan Seacrest is a buffoon
17 famous
How did you know the show is ok when you keep changing your channel every 3 minutes. Stupid…
Seacrest Out, LOL
I thought it was a bit bad taste when he and that guy did the Vanessa Hudgens joke was a bit fresh to do it i thought
Funny, how all the threads talk about the people that were on the show but no one watched? LIARS!
Football was more interesting than the Emmys. Actually MTV,VMA,Oscars and Emmys ratings have been falling.
Back then the shows and stars were way way better such as the real glory days of ER,Friends,X-Files,Everybody Loves Raymond,JAG,Sex and the City,Six Feet Under,Sopranos,Friends,Frasier,Dawson’s Creek,Buffy,Angel,Alias,Roswell,Cheers,Ed,Gilmore girls,Felicity,7th Heaven
and many others.
now how many CSI’s we have? Greys cast that dont get along with the divas in Desperate Housewives,so many stupid reality shows,
and comedies now are not even funny; more like crude.
NBC is a joke network and they only have Heroes that’s more like wonnabe X-Men. CW’s big show ratings is America’s top model.
I also miss hottie Simon Baker in The Guardian, the beloved NYPD Blue,90210,Saved by the Bell,Fresh Prince,Charmed,Third Watch,Party of five. Sad sigh.
Hihihi serve him right.
personally i just wasn’t interested in any of the people nominated/shows and plus i was watching FOOTBALL!! WOOOOOOO
i actually preferred Ryan and his style….without overdoing the jokes and all which former hosts do as comedians.
must admit, the ratings should be blamed on viewers getting bored with the show as a whole….same programs, same celebs year in, year out - and getting so predictable.
thought they’d make more of a production out of the Sopranos to give them a proper farewell but that didn’t happen
don’t mind Ryan doing the hosting again… more classy and the production a lot chic!
Congrats to America Ferrera!!!!
It wasn’t the host - it was the craptasticness of the nominations. I decided not to watch the minute they were announced. The lame wins made my choice go down even easier.
I’ll start watching the Emmys again, whomever the host, as soon as they start nominating the best shows around, not Boston Legal, Two and A Half Men, etc. This is the same august institution that had to create a rule so the members stopped giving people acting awards for appearances that lasted LESS THAN 30 SECONDS.
I agree with #32 Charlene. My sentiments exactly.
I actually couldn’t give a $*%&( about the Emmys this year. TV has gotten really boring and the shows that won, no one watched (30 Rock won best sitcom???? Excuse me???? DAMN!) And outside of “Idol”, who really cares about Seacrest???? I know **** Clark and you, sir, are no **** Clark.
Ryan is GAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYY ! It is always awkward to watch someone who doesn’t realize that the ENTIRE world realizes that he’s a *** try to be hip and make come-on remarks to both sexes in Prime Time; walk out in a faggy black and white outfit; come out in a most unfashionable skinny black tie circa 1970; introduce a man/woman couple as “stunning” and “also stunning”. . . . . . .
Ryan - come out already and drop a couple of the jobs. We’ll all be happier. You’re way over saturated in the markets.
Who is it?

I WATCHED THE BEGINNING ITS NOT LIKE I EXSPECTED RAIN
TO BE FUNNY OR ANYTHING. BUT IT WAS JUST A BORING SHOW
IN ALL. BUT I WOULD HAVE PERFERED TO SEE SOMEONE FUNNY
HOST.
It’s rather funny/degrading to major networks to know that a silly Disney made-for-tv movie, High School Musical 2, drew a much bigger crowd than the Emmy Awards on a major tv network. Even last year’s award show too!
The primetime shows and stars are not as good as before. Ryan is a nice guy and his L.A. radio station is the no.1 listened radio in Calif.
The only shows I watch now are Bones,Idol and Dancing with the Stars but I hope Idol will have better talent because its becoming stale lately too.
The cable shows are dominating more in Disney its High School Musical
while on Lifetime Channel Army Wives is big hit.
I think people are getting a little bit tierd of Hollywood.
How can it score the “lowest ratings EVER” if you then go on to say, “making it the second worst in history!”… which one is it; worst ever or second-to-worst?
Who cares about the emmys. they are ridiculous and should only be published in the newspaper they after they are picked. And Ryan Seacock can host that all he wants.

angelina not liking him is a result of him being annoying as h e l l. but that’s not the reason people find him annoying. start thinking instead of spending time to find someone to patyourcrotch.
