Oscar Telecast Not Bad

The Oscars aired on ABC last night, and the show wasn't bad. It clocked in around 3 hours 15 minutes, which I appreciated. Please, no more 4-hour marathon viewings ...

Most of the speeches were short and sweet. I thought host Chris Rock was so-so. His opening was flat and his digs at various actors went nowhere, as they should have.

My vote for next year's host: Mike Myers.

Ever since Janet Jackson's wardrobe malfunction it's as if Oliver Cromwell is alive and well acting as Lord Protector of the Media. The Super Bowl and award shows have been so toned down I fully expect next year all the actesses will be modeling the latest fashion in Muslim Bourkas.
