Aided by the emphasis on “Hamilton,” the 2016 Tony Awards posted huge year-over-year ratings and viewership gains.<\/p>\n

This year’s ceremony, which did not have the “Hamilton” boost, gave back those gains — and then some.<\/p>\n

According to fast national data posted by Showbuzz, Sunday’s ceremony averaged a 0.9 adults 18-49 rating and 6.01 million overall viewers from 8-11PM.<\/p>\n

The numbers markedly trail the 1.6 rating and 8.72 million viewer mark drawn by last year’s ceremony.<\/p>\n

They also trail the 1.0 rating and 6.46 million mark posted in 2015.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The lack of “Hamilton” focus meant much weaker viewership for the annual Tony Awards.","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[1048],"tags":[275,4347],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\nRatings: 2017 Tony Awards Ceremony Sinks Without "Hamilton" Boost<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Aided by the emphasis on "Hamilton," the 2016 Tony Awards posted huge year-over-year ratings and viewership gains.
