I don’t think I’ve watched an Oscar show for 20 years. Maybe 30 years. I’m not sure.

They used to be given to the most influential Hollywood insiders or their candidates. Now, they are almost purely political. Those few movies that are worth seeing almost never win anything.

The last time I watched either Bob Hope or Johnny Carson was the host. Huck Follywood.
