Tldr it wasn’t just the Emmys, but the Iowa caucuses and NFL were on. Yeah no one watched but they also chose a terrible night for it

Once upon a time these awards shows weren’t televised. I wouldn’t mind if they went back to that, personally.

I think a reason why the viewership is so low is because viewers are fractured and watch so many things.
For example I've been watching all these shows on-demand, but skipping forward to just see my favorites from Succession accept awards. I have a sibling who has been watching the full shows but she and Karsten Runquist are the only ones I've heard say they watched these events in full.
