It is paying off for me. While I have the show on, I'm grading final papers for the quarter and have been able to reduce the number I need to read by 25% so far!

I love plagiarism!

I’m just Ken was by far my favorite Oscar performance.

I'm just Ken.

Seriously? Why do people like that so much? I really don't get it.

I admit it, I want "I'm Just Ken" to win. I think it will be "What Was I Made For?" but I would love for it to be "I'm Just Ken."

Is it just me or does Ariana look a lot thinner than usual?

To all the people complaining about the time change, Ariana Grande was on SNL until 1am in NYC last night and now she's at the Oscars live in LA.

Wow, two in a row for Billie and Fineas. It's a great song, though, and speaks the heart of Barbie through and through.

It was funny but I was kind of surprised by how stone faced Keaton looked. Maybe he didn’t expect it but he didn’t really give much of a reaction.

That was a Batman look. He motioned with his hands, bring it on.

Two in three years. Pretty remarkable still. I turned to my daughter and said “Isn’t she younger than you?”. She is, by a year.

Yeah. Just expected a smirk or something more from him. Still good though.

I can see where Gosling performing with all the costumes and dancers and Slash and playing to the audience is fun, but the song itself is so crappy, imo.

This "In Memoriam" is the only real misstep so far, showing us the live junk instead of the presentation. The type is too small and it's ridiculous, and I've got a 65" TV, for crying out loud. C'mon.

One of the things about growing older is that every year I recognize more of the people in the In Memoriam segment.

They flew through those. And then they showed a gobbled mix of names at the end that I couldn’t read.

Agreed. I want to see the deceased montage on my screen, not the damn dancing.

Spot of the night for me so far was Steven Spielberg’s reactions to Kate McKinnon thinking Jurassic Park was a documentary and finding out Jeff Goldblum wasn’t real.

“Then who have I been sending my tasteful nudes to?”

Spielberg pointing to himself with that blank look on his face
