shitload of "best oscars ever" guff in UK press today. will be so glad for it all to be over. wonder if 'semi pro' and 'vantage point' will get a look-in next year. guess not.

I can only seem to find "red carpet coverage" on E, which we don't get.

weird
it is really. guess the beeb was priced out, and to be fair no-one watches it anyway -- snug in that popular 2am on monday morning slot.

You'd think someone would at least pick it up to show Monday night, like itv(?) did w the grammys. I'd watch it.

OK, I laughed like a fool over Jon Stewart's Olympia Dukakis gag.

Badolf Titler. Hilarious, Jon. Really. Who's writing these jokes, Nelson Muntz?
I hope that entire room gets somehow blown to smithereens and only Javier Bardem is somehow spared
