“There’s not many things on this earth that are more soporific than watching the oscars.”
Our former pastor always said he never watched awards shows for that reason. They are always about puffing each other up and so vacuous. I never even thought about that until he mentioned how silly they are. He was right. I used to sometimes tune in because it was the thing to do and other programming seemed to suck because other channels imagined everyone would watch the awards program. It makes me happy that they hit a low and may they cease to exist. Really it is a free hours long advertisement for some of the most worthless movies and music available. But we are told what they want us to buy into. Some movies winning academy awards have been great but increasingly they are not.
