The 51st Annual Grammy Awards averaged a considerable 19.67 million viewers and a 7.6 rating/18 share among adults 18-49 from 8-11 p.m., finishing a solid first in every half hour. Here is the breakdown:
The 51st Annual Grammy Awards (CBS) 8:00 p.m. – Viewers: 19.29 million, A18-49: 6.9/18 8:30 p.m. – Viewers: 21.01 million, A18-49: 7.8/19 9:00 p.m. – Viewers: 21.32 million, A18-49: 8.2/19 9:30 p.m. – Viewers: 20.41 million, A18-49: 8.2/18 10:00 p.m. – Viewers: 18.49 million, A18-49: 7.4/18 10:30 p.m. – Viewers: 17.50 million, A18-49: 7.1/18
Compared to the year-ago telecast (Viewers: 17.17 million; A18-49: 6.5/16 on Feb. 10, 2008), this was an increase of 2.5 million viewers and 17 percent among adults 18-49.

People were enticed by the Rihanna/Chris drama and hoping to see MIA give birth on air No LOL It is because last year, people were worried about the Writers Strike. All award shows were up this season. Most people didn't even know about the Chris Brown thing especially since it didnt hit until about an hour before the show. Only the big followers knew, and a lot of people don't even know who M.I.A. is.

Dixie Chicks deserved to win. I've never heard anything by Herbie (that I know of) and didn't know who Robert Plant was before this.
