I'm actually kind of angry at Dakota Johnson for how ugly her dress was.

The dress would have been fine with better hair and makeup choices, IMO.

Of course the show ended well past my bedtime, but fun wrong envelope shenanigans apparently.

I don't think fun is the right word. It looked pretty awful for all involved.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I was about three seconds away from turning the TV off and going to bed right before the envelope shenanigans unfolded! The LLL crew were all so incredibly gracious and respectful, but what a fuckup. (I was thrilled to see Moonlight win, however, because I thought LLL was a very pretty bowl of nothing, neither a great movie or a great musical.)

Yes, it looks like the people on stage handled it as well has humanly possible. Heads gonna roll no doubt.

Apparently there was also a mistake in the In Memoriam reel.

2017, come on! You can't be this bad at everything!

I've taken to watching an episode of White Collar from time to time. It's not something I would pick out, but my wife doesn't like to watch anything I pick out, so it's a good compromise. While the show is fine, the level of Ford product placement is simple amazing.

Is it as good as it was on Alias?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I think Eureka centering a whole plot around deodorant is still the bar-setting example of product placement.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The most blatant White Collar one I remember is when Elizabeth had to demonstrate how the car could parallel-park itself.

I remember an NCIS episode where they framed a shot during a tense standoff with a closeup of the star's hand framing the Ford logo.
