[Conan O’Brien has been announced
as the host of next year’s Oscars.

The former late-night host and comedian
will host for the first time after
Jimmy Kimmel turned it down.
The current late-night host had hosted
four times, taking on the
2017 and 2018 ceremonies
and then the most recent two.

“I did two years and it went well,”
Kimmel said during a podcast earlier this year.
”I did another two years, it went well.
I figured I’d take a little break.”

Seems pointless as a lot of rubbish these days wins.

Most of the time, the stuff nominated is stuff virtually no one but the snobbiest of snobs has seen. This year is a rare one where most people will at least have heard of more than half the films nominated for best picture.

Although despite the audience accessibility, I'm not sure the likes of Wicked, Emilia Perez, or even The Substance (which pains me to say, as I'm a big horror fan and I did like it) are particularly deserving of being included in that roster.

Also what the hell is Jimmy Kimmel talking about when he says his four years as host went well. Hasn't the Oscars rather notoriously experienced a diminishing viewership over the last few years? How is it the case that it 'went well' for him?

I thought The Substance was okay. It was good for what it was. But I think pople went overboard with their praise. One critic said it is the greatest movie of all time. Excessive.

But it was only on Sky Cinema
but then the USA owner (NBC/Comcast)
of Sky UK
Stopped there the long night
as it was costing too much.


So now you can record it Free
on ITV1HD overnight.

J.Ross starting at 10:30PM
is much too early
as it goes live at 1AM or 2AM to the USA

So I will Record it
and Fast Forward J.Ross.
