Despite over 6.3 million viewers, the 2023 Golden Globes award ceremony received a low all-time NBC rating.
The 80th annual event was held on January 10 and featured historic wins such as Angela Bassett and ‘Abbott Elementary,’ among others, as well as many memorable moments.
The award show was taken off the airwaves in 2022 due to backlash, but it returned this week without the expected bang.
According to an entertainment website, ThatGrapeJuice, despite securing a viewership of 6.3 million, the ‘Globes’ finished the rating race as the night’s second most-watched program – falling behind CBS’ hit series, ‘FBI‘ (which garnered an audience of 7.4 million).
Marking the lowest number of views ever for the ceremony, the sum represents only a third of the size of 2020’s 18.3 million ‘Globes’ viewers.
While it’s fair to mention the numbers listed above don’t include any reports from Peacock or other digital platforms where the show aired, the uptick those entities account for will likely not make a substantial difference in final viewership figures.
