Oh No the Oscars are back on!!!

Quote from DukePilgrim

For all those hoping that the writers strike would last long enough so that we wouldnt
be inflicted with the annual brain dead convention aka the Academy Awards I bring bad news.

No doubt the fragile luvvies will all be gushing over each other in their joy of having a night out and will urge on their heroes Hillary and Barrack at every opportunity.

Where's the fall out shelter???

I couldn't agree more with those sentiments, Mike.

That annual exercise in narcissism is totally disgusting. I stopped watching it when Bob [Hope} stopped emceeing it and the only reason I watched it with Bob is that I enjoyed his humor so much.

One of the blessings of NOT having cable :teeth_smile: !

Not that we would watch it anyway . . .

Even without cable you still get it on news bulletins and papers

You're right, we will have opportunity to hear about it after the fact (will get most of the news from the radio), but we won't be spending any time watching the actual event. The Mrs. likes to listen to the radio because she can be doing other work while she listens.

I actually enjoyed the Golden Globe Awards back in January. It was good to get the actual winner without all the hog-wash, and it didn't last 10 hours. I was hoping it would be the same for the Oscars. This show is a total waste of time, and I will not be watching it either.

Sad that they had to resolve the strike. I don't think the writers write too well anyway with the quality shows today. And I thought that the reality shows would doom the network shows anyway, but I guess I was wrong about that.

Cheers

I feel as you all do about the awards. Looks like a good enough of an excuse (not that we need any) to watch at least two John Wayne movies ;-))

Well I am going to watch it, I love to see the dresses that the ladies are wearing, all the hype and predictions before hand, Joan Rivers' face lift, and John Stewart is soooooooo funnnyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!

















































Ahh come on, who am I kidding. I hate that stuff as much as you guys do!!!!!
