SAG Awards extremely disappointed with Grammys reschedule to the same date

[Teletubby 148,327]

Now that the Recording Academy and CBS have moved this year’s Grammy Awards telecast to March 14, that puts it in competition with the 27th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards — and SAG-AFTRA is not happy with the news. SAG-AFTRA announced the revised March ceremony date on July 2.
It’s unclear whether the Recording Academy realized that SAG-AFTRA had already laid claim to March 14.

SAG-AFTRA Statement



This isn’t the first time the Grammys and the SAG Awards have wound up on competing dates. In 2020 the 26th Annual SAG Awards were originally scheduled for Jan. 26, 2020 but after Grammy Awards were announced for the same date, SAG-AFTRA moved the SAG Awards a week up, to Jan. 19.

There's only 52 weekends in a year and there are definitely more than 52 award ceremonies in the world  It's inevitable.

Don't worry, we will be watching a real and fair award, grammys? I DON'T KNOW HER 

[Ryusei 61,036]

what a mess. The grammys should have just stuck with their original date and instead of trying so hard for an in person event that won't happen should have prepared a virtual option as well.

I still have some respect for entity that is the Grammys but they are truly doing their best to ruin their power. Morons

Lol I honestly enjoy watching the Oscars, SAGs, etc. more than the Grammys so if they keep the same date I know what I’d be watching that night. 

They’re all probably gonna get postponed anyway.

I don't understand how that would be a problem, the awards have very distinct target audiences

I think they share a good amount of same audience actually. They are both pop culture award show if you think it patiently.

SAG Award viewers (2020): 2.68 million

Grammy Award viewers (2020): 18.7 million

It's not like people were rushing to watch them anyways.
