Oh God, I hate the Oscars. AND YET, NOW I AM COMPELLED.

Rejoice! Rejoice. You have no choice, rejoice...

I'm indifferent to them but now the power of The Daily Show compells me.

Then don't, dammit. You have to learn to be strong...be woman...be-bop. Besides, they've been going downhill ever since "The Devil in Miss Jones" was shut out in the Best Over-Animation category.

(Also, I can't stand Stewart, so the choice is easy for me.)

It must've been the peyote.

The boyfriend and I were having this same discussion when we found out.

You would want to if you sat through last year's Oscars with Chris Rock as the unfunniest, most out-of-touch host in the history of time.

I love the Oscars. No really. I used to get dressed up for them in outrageous outfits (ie, leggings and scarfs and costume jewelry). <3

You'll watch the Oscars and you'll like them, young lady! Why, when I was a kid, we BEGGED to see the Oscars. Back then, it was just one award, for best actor. Well, film hadn't been invented yet and women weren't allowed on stages, so one Oscar was all we needed. It traveled the countryside, strapped to the back of a covered wagon, and we'd ooooh and aaaaah as it passed through our little ghosttown. Wouldnt' stop for us, no, couldn't do that, too hard to get the horses starting up agin, dontcha know.

Afterwards, we'd all trudge uphill to the homestead again (it was uphill getting to town too, go figure) and git stuck back into reading by the firelight and ciphering on the back of the shovel blade with a bit of coal.

HEY! Wake up! I'm talking at ya!

I said the same

I may TiVo it and ffwd the boring bits. I think it's a secret plan to raise ratings. Sadly, it's working.

Not even the power of Jon's weaselly little laugh can compel me to watch the Oscars.

Now I have to watch it too. He better make it GOOD!
