With the newer format and the live performance room - I honestly thought it was one of the better Grammys. I really hope that when we return to more normal broadcasts next year they keep some of the changes that were made during the pandemic.
I'm pretty sure most of us just catch the results on the news and watch the performances that we want to see on YouTube?
I really liked how the performances were done this year, I think that would be cool if they continued it like that. It was cool seeing the artist watch and jam out to each other. And seeing Trevor Noah dancing to all the performances was fun too. Just make the Grammys a big long concert that celebrates the top music of the year, instead of giving out the awards and having "winners" and "losers". The show is 90% performances anyway.
