Is it just me or are the Oscars now becoming a rather run-of-the-mill event…? here in the UK we only get the edited highlights broadcast - if you want to watch the full thing you have to be a channel subscriber (rip off) - but having seen just the 90 minute version I decided that even it was too long. Oscar night used to be a favourite event for me and I always looked forward to the Academy Awards, but in Australia you get the broadcast in full and just hours after it has ended - and for free.
I was disappointed especially with the In Memorium segment; no tribute to the great Bea Arthur or even Farah Fawcett. Okay, so they were generally stage and tv actors but they were actors all the same and Bea certainly deserved inclusion in that segment. How many people ever know the names of the producers who are included…?
Not a wise decision guys…
