Yeah I stopped for a minute when Lady Gaga performed, and then watched Birdman win best director/actor. I think Linklater deserved it (or Anderson), but whatever; I don't care about these shows like I used to. She raised the up the bar for the show, and I am not the biggest fan of hers.
Is there anyone they could get that can save the show from mediocrity? They've literally tried everyone, from all walks of life; they even tried out Hathaway and Franco, which obviously didn't work. I still would like Eddie Murphy to get an opportunity at it. He was supposed to a few years back, but he backed out after the whole homophobic comment.
They really need to get someone that is a comedian for a living, and not just someone incorporates comedy into their movies. What about Jerry Seinfeld, I think he'd be willing to it.
