Proving once again that nobody likes Ryan Seacrest except maybe his mom, the ratings for the 59th Primetime Emmy Awards on Sunday were abysmal.
"Preliminary figures from Nielsen Media Research put the audience for Sunday's show, aired on Fox, at 13.1 million viewers. That's 3 million fewer than for last year's telecast, on NBC, and less than the record low 13.8 million three years ago on ABC."
The big excuse being offered is that the Emmys were aired against a big football game (the San Diego Chargers got creamed by the New England Patriots - including Bridget Moynahan's baby daddy, Tom Brady) but we prefer to blame Seacrest. The man is proof that execs don't listen to the public. He gets made fun of all over town for his over-the-top corniness and big phony TV personality but we still see his face everywhere.
