yep - hating the pre-show.
Natter 72: We Were Unprepared for This
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Go -t!
I'm watching TAR, and will go back after for a little Oscars, but I am 100% not allowed to watch the whole thing. I have to go to bed early!
Pre-show person's white dress was extraordinarily ugly.
Even Ellen is rocking the blue-blazer-with-black-lapels look tonight!
Love Ellen normally, but some of her jokes are hitting me wrong.
I was thinking much the same thing, Lee. I'm cringing as much as I'm laughing.
Hated the preshow as well. But now that it's on, I've decided to put aside the grading and pour myself a lemondrop. Yum.
I think if you're in a shitty mood (I am) the whole thing really reeks of self-love and obscene excess. Where are the shows celebrating doctors and firefighters and teachers? Does anyone think about how much good could be done in L.A. alone with the money spent to produce this, not to mention the money spent on clothes and jewelry and limos?
I'm in a *really* bad mood, to be clear.
Jared Leto's speech started out sweet, but odd, and then got weird.
I did like Ellen's Hunger Games line.
