Television’s Emmy Awards enjoyed a sizeable audience boost, with viewership rising by more than half from the previous edition’s all-time low, network ABC said Monday. Some 6.87 million tuned in on Sunday night to watch Japan-set historical epic Shogun<\/i> smash the record for most Emmy wins in a single season, picking up 18 awards at the small-screen version of the Oscars. The show about warring rivals in feudal Japan also became the first non-English-language show to claim the highly coveted best drama series prize.<\/p>\n

The audience jump is a welcome boost for a show that – like many award ceremonies – has struggled to retain viewers in recent years.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“The ’76th Emmy Awards’ telecast on ABC posted the award show’s largest overall audience in 3 years, since the show’s airing on CBS (in 2021), which enjoyed an NFL football game lead-in,” said an ABC statement.<\/p>\n

Father-and-son duo Eugene and Dan Levy were broadly praised for their co-hosting of Sunday night’s event, which channeled nostalgia with multiple segments honoring television’s past, including a “West Wing” cast reunion.<\/p>\n

Still, the ratings are historically low. As recently as 2018, the Emmys telecast regularly topped 10 million.<\/p>\n

Since then the Emmys have had to contend with the Covid-19 pandemic, which required a socially distanced ceremony.<\/p>\n

And last summer’s Hollywood strikes meant pushing back the 2023 edition into the following January for a ceremony watched by only 4.46 million – meaning this year enjoyed a 54 percent rise.<\/p>\n

Awards shows generally have struggled to attract viewers over the past decade or so, as audiences fragment and younger demographics skip linear television in favor of streaming and social media.<\/p>\n

But several shows including the Oscars have enjoyed a small uptick in their most recent editions. In Sunday night’s biggest surprise, Hacks<\/i> was named best comedy, besting previous winner The Bear<\/i>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Baby Reindeer<\/i> triumphed in the limited series section.<\/p>\n

In addition to winning best drama, Shogun<\/i> earned best actor and best actress awards for Hiroyuki Sanada and Anna Sawai.<\/p>\n
