Grammy TV ratings up

The Grammy Awards drew 20 million TV viewers this year, up from 17 million last year, when it competed against American Idol.

TV ratings just in suggest that the Grammy Awards attracted its largest TV audience in three years after a slump in viewing figures last year. Last year it got 17 million viewers, whereas this year 20 million tuned in. Then again, last year it aired on a Wednesday against American Idol, whereas this year it went out on a Sunday without any music based competing show up against it, so a ratings boost was surely to be expected. Not that I'm wishing to take away anything from the show's producers' ratings achievement or anything.
