    So agree. She makes everything so tiny into something major and serious. 

     

     

    Don't get me started on that trash box occupying the 5th seat on The View. I still wish that they would've wooed back Nicole Wallace or simply kept Jedidiah Bila. Hell, I'd even settle for Elizabeth Hasselbitch returning at this point. 

    I think Meghan’s just around for her last name and for morbid reasons surrounding her dad’s terminal illness. But I digress...

    We got rid of Brandi only to find someone just as toxic.

     

    She ruins BH for me like Meghan McCain ruins the View.

    I would take Aviva Drescher, Kelly Bensimon, Brandi Glanville, Kim Richards at her most desperate and vicious, Jill Zarin, or Kim Zolciak over Ms. Erika Jayne and her frozen sourpuss any day of the week. Hell, give me the Salahi woman from DC.

    I don't get it either. There's nothing appealing or redeeming about her. 

     

    And I can't get over her trying to act like she's bad a** when she was just moping about panty-gate last season. :rolleyes:

    She ruins BH for me. Just a toxic, hostile, thoroughly unlikable presence.

    She'll be out for an additional 2 weeks and is being replaced by Jerry O'Connell. How random

    Ha. He’s a good host and an appealing personality but... yeah... random. The line about him being the polar opposite of Wendy and thus not a threat is funny. I can’t picture him sipping tea and dishing on celebrities. Someone like Bevy Smith, sure.

    Also, you can't expect most of America to sit through 4+ hours of an award show for movies the majority of people haven't seen or have no intention of ever seeing...

    It’s a huge factor, and I suspect Black Panther will be nominated for BP and possibly other major categories next year for this very reason. However, I do think this audience erosion is largely irreversible and once live events and sports begin to collapse, it’s curtains for broadcast.

  6. I’m assuming the bigger winners (Shape, Tonya, Billboards) will take a theatrical victory lap before hitting streaming but I’ll check them out once they do.

     

    Last night’s telecast was watched by 26.5 million, the least-watched by a wide margin. I just wonder how many will tune in 10 years from now.

    I didn't realize it was her,  but Hollyoaks alum Rachel Shenton and her fiance won the Oscar last night for Best Live Action Short Film for The Silent Child

    I was wondering where I saw her before. Attractive couple.

    Yes!  And let's add Leslie Jones to this list.  She's no one I want to watch!  

    Totally. Leslie hosting the BET Awards last year was painful to watch. So much mugging. I saw that as someone who found Robin Williams intolerably manic even as I recognized his talent (and his impressions were often spot-on). But it’s hard out there for black comedians.

    +1

     

    Maya Rudolph, someone who is super funny, looked so embarrassed standing next to her.  

    It’s the same with Cardi B. Someone with a lot of natural charm and skill, but through overexposure she feels the need to play up her idiosyncrasies and top what she did before. Now she looks like a damn fool.

  10. I liked Tiffany before she became the It girl. She was extremely charming and charismatic in her interview with Jimmy Kimmel last summer. But she’s playing up her persona to the point of shrill self-parody.

    Thrilled for Peele and Del Toro. I would've been happy with most of the nominees for BP except Darkest Hour and Lady Bird, though. Kind of wish Get Out had edged Shape out on BP but they're both very deserving. Wish CMBYN and Timothee Chalamet had won for Best Actor, but that was never going to happen with Oldman and DDL in the race. At least James Ivory won.

    They love the ingenues but make the guys prove themselves before allowing them into the club.

    The only interesting thing about that is getting to see the social justice warriors who yet again put too much importance on an archaic awards ceremony to validate them seething over him winning and Sam Rockwell winning. If Frances Macdormand wins I imagine Twitter and tumblr will open a vein. And post the pictures in graphic detail.

    Oh God. The reaction to the Grammys from the Twitter set was hilarious. I wanted to tell them, “You do realize that this is the same Recording Academy that gave Jethro Tull an award for Best Heavy Metal album? That gave Shelby Lynne Best New Artist SIX albums into her career? And you’re still putting stock in their decisions?”

  13. Frances reminds me of a white version of one of my aunts. Fierce but with a sweet softness that peeks through.

     

    Hey, at least this ceremony ended before midnight Eastern, but it still somehow felt interminable. 

     

    They really went all in on politics, but a lot of it felt forced, like Jimmy Kimmel’s monologue.
