The Oscars and the Grammys are set to air just one week apart this year.
But the Omicron variant was running rampant in the Los Angeles area at the time, forcing a postponement.
And so here we are, with the Recording Academy and CBS hoping audiences can sit through two three-hour-plus, EGOT-level shows just one week apart. The two shows have usually aired about a month apart, but the gap shrunk in 2005, as the Oscars moved up their show date so they wouldn’t air long after rival shows often made the eventual Oscar winners entirely predictable.
Twelve times between 2005 and 2020, the Grammys and the Oscars aired just two weeks apart, with the Grammys always going first in those years. The closest the two shows have come to each other before this year was in 2016, when they aired 13 days apart But even in those years, with the Grammys going first, they were out of the way before serious attention turned to the Oscars. Here, the more attention-grabbing show, the Oscars, will go first. That could make it hard for updates about the Grammy telecast to break through.
