Superlatives
With nine awards having received in main categories, Adela Banášová is the most successful participant in the so far history of the OTO Awards poll, making her the most voted Entertainer and Host in general. She is followed by Miroslav Žbirka, Marcel Merčiak and Patrik Herman, who each have accumulated seven trophies, these as the most favorite Male Singer, Sports Commentator and TV Journalist, respectively. Herman also holds the record for the highest number of consecutive wins per category.
Including special achievements, Banášová lead with thirteen wins in total, while Merčiak with nine. Besides, he is the only winner having scored at least in two categories per year, both the special (2012) and regular (2015 – 2016). The third participant with the highest number of OTO awards in general, is Actress Zdena Studenková with eight wins.
Within multiple nominees, Žbirka himself remains the most successful to date, having earned sixteen nominations in a row to his credit, all made since the second season of the show. His runners-up are Sportscaster Lenka Čviriková with fourteen nominations, and journalists such as Zlatica Švajdová and Herman; the latter with thirteen nominating bids.
TV ratings
During the first decade, the show attracted in average over 700,000 viewers per ceremony, reaching its peak with a total audience of more than 855,00 viewers for the 7th season. Subsequently held ceremonies marked the second highest numbers for the title as whole. The 9th and 10th season were watched by 731,000 and 778,000 people respectively, with the latter being televised on two STV sister's channels at the same time; Jednotka (STV 1) and Trojka (STV 3).
Since the 2010s, the show format gains considerably less — roughly half a million audiences each year —, yet stil making it the most watched television program within prime time in the region. The 12th season of the TV poll, or rather the only aired on a Friday instead, produced also the lowest ratings ever for the program; only 464,000 viewers that year.
