Tony Clipped THE Tonys

The Sopranos drew huge ratings.

The Tony Awards did not.

Actually, the Tony Awards scored what could be the worst ratings in the history of the show. The really disturbing trend for the producers has to be that the viewership went DOWN as the big awards were being handed out after 10:30pm and people decided even a blow-out NBA finals game was better to watch.

People have debated whether CBS will keep the awards show. I say look for it to show up on PBS or A&E before not too long.

The Hollywood Reporter has all the details on the ratings.
