The show started in 1975 and was created by Bob Stivers. Since then it is followed by many and has always experienced high viewer’s ratings. The reason behind the high ratings is only the fact that these awards portray what the public actually likes and wants to follow and not just what is new or different. They like their favorites to be recognized and appreciated. Procter & Gamble is the only sponsor of the show. The company bought the show in 1982 from Bob Stivers. The show has counterparts in India and Australia as well.
 
The ratings for the show experienced a peak in 1977. This was when The Sting won the award for Favorite film, Barbara Streisand for Favorite actress and John Wayne for the Favorite actor. Thus from the start, the program has built the reputation of portraying the exact choice of the viewers.
 
The awards are given in several categories. However the categories are not fixed and vary according to the viewer’s demand. Some of the awards categories include: All-Around Movie, Favorite Sci-Fi Show, Favorite Movie Actor, Film Actress, World Favorite Movie Actor, Favorite Female TV Star, Favorite Male TV Star, Favorite Leading Lady, Favorite Picture and Favorite Tour. The list is not exhaustive and new categories are added as per the viewer’s demand.
 
The show is based on public polls. Surveys done by Gallup have been engaged in the polls. Due to margin for error, there have been ties in many categories over the years. However, recently the selection of the winners is done through online voting. The first time that the winners were decided through online voting was for the 31^st People's Choice Awards held in 2005. Now web based research companies such as Knowledge Networks and Visible Measures have also been engaged.
Visible Measures which was used in 2010 as well used a measure called True Reach to determine the nominees. Using this measure, the popularity of the potential nominees is determined. This is done by taking real-time data on internet viewership of videos. Therefore, the selection for the awards depends on most watched videos. Visible Measures uses very sound and patented technology to carry out the research; however the program has received a lot of criticism for using this method of selection. 
 
The 39^th People's Choice Awards for the year 2012 will be held in January 2013. Some of the main categories for the awards are: Favorite Action Movie, Favorite Movie, Favorite Comedy Movie, Favorite Drama Movie, Favorite Movie Fan Following, Favorite Movie Franchise, Favorite Movie Actor, Favorite Movie Actress, Favorite Face of Heroism, Favorite On-Screen Chemistry, Favorite Network TV Comedy, Favorite Network TV Drama, Favorite Song of the Year, Favorite Album of the Year, and Favorite Breakout Artist.
