September 15, 2025
The Emmy Awards have seen a ratings boost as the television industry aims to recover from recent disruptions. About 7.4 million viewers watched the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards on CBS, hosted by Nate Bargatze. This marks the most-watched Emmys since 2021, showing an 8% increase from the previous year’s ABC telecast. Sunday’s show was up more than 70% from the -time low of 4.3 million from the Fox telecast of January 2024, which was delayed by months because of Hollywood’s writers and actors strikes. The Emmys last attracted over 10 million viewers in 2018, and nearly 22 million in 2000.
