Hollywood is alive and well. They made more money in 2012 then in 2011. In 2013, they are up from 2012 mainly due to Identity Theft. The Oscars had the highest ratings in three years (over 40 million watched). Third highest show in 2013 after the Superbowl and play off game. I thought the Oscars were very funny for a change. Seth MacFarlin is a guy who made Ted for goodness sake. Anyone who was expecting the Pope on Sunday Night is naive. Seth MacFarlin will be asked again. The only hosts never to be asked again are David Letterman and James Franco.

Vs. 53 million 15 years ago when the population was considerably smaller.
I agree. Hollywood in not dead. It is just corrupt from the tip of its toes to the top of its head.
