NEW YORK (AP) — Reviews have been poor for Sunday's 81st Golden Globes, but the telecast pulled in an average of 9.4 million viewers, up about 50% from last year, according to CBS.
The ceremony had the benefit of an NFL lead-in, as well as an especially starry gathering that drew Taylor Swift, Oprah Winfrey, Timothée Chalamet, Kylie Jenner, Leonardo DiCaprio and many more. The night's biggest winner, “Oppenheimer,” was also a huge ticket-seller, with nearly $1 billion in box office.
But more viewers tuned in than they have since before the pandemic. Back in 2020, 18.4 million watched the Globes.
