      It hardly seems like a year since everybody was complaining about how shit last year's Oscars were, and it's actually longer than that.

      I've never understood why anybody would watch a bunch of rich people telling each other how great they are. If you did watch, you've only got yourself to blame.

      I was only joking

        Incidentally, if they want to improve it, they need to have Rick Gervais host. I'd watch that show.

          Three things lacking:

          1. Old time star power.
          2. Oscar winning movies that people actually want to watch.
          3. An appreciation for the fans, without an abundance of woke BS.

                They’re ratings matched an average ratings for NCIS or The Voice...

                  Also - the Oscars are fake. They’re all paid actors.

                    A sense of their own silliness would really help.

                      First Oscars in memory that I can recall not watching any of.

                      I used to watch all the nominated movies in anticipation of the awards but it’s a new Oscars and there is no assurance anymore that the nominated movies are watchable-that is something that doesn’t feel like boring homework.

                      Same here. First time in probably 20 years I skipped it completely. Genuinely tired of the preaching and out of touch views.

                          In 1998, the Oscars had about 57 million viewers.

                          Last night, they had 9.8 million.

                          I think it's safe to say that circa none of those 9.8 million were of the disadvantaged classes the high status woke at the event presume to speak for.

                          Education is extremely important.
