The 55th Annual Grammy Awards may have been heavy on star power, and boasted some great performances and pleasant surprises, but that hasn't translated into strong ratings.
In fact, according to Entertainment Weekly, CBS' coverage of Sunday night's awards pulled in 28.1 million viewers and a 10.0 rating among adults aged 18-49 when it was broadcast on Sunday night. Though those figures do seem impressive, it's a 30 percent decrease in viewers from last year's record-breaking show.

Though those figures do seem impressive, it's a 30 percent decrease in viewers from last year's record-breaking show.

It seems that this may have a lot to do with the circumstances surrounding last year's show, which took place the day after the tragic death of Whitney Houston.
Though this year's figures represent a steep drop, it's still the second-highest number of viewers the show has enjoyed since 1993, and the broadcast was easily the most watched program of the night. Were you watching the Grammy Awards on Sunday night?
