The Golden Globes received dismal initial ratings this year, despite a pledge to keep politics out of it.

The 78th annual awards ceremony, which was broadcast on NBC on Sunday and hosted by Saturday Night Live alums Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, raked in an average of around 5 million viewers and a 1.2 rating in the 18-49 age block, according to Nielsen TV ratings reported by multiple news outlets on Monday. The 1.2 figure, which, like the others, is not final, is on track for record low viewership among the key demographic once final figures are recorded.
