Second week in a row that saw the Viacom networks devote their Sunday night to an awards program. Like last week, I included the top 2 telecasts (BET and VH1). All other networks saw numbers of less than 300k viewers each. Overall, the numbers were quite disappointing. That appears to be the general trend with awards shows this year.
