    Want tons and tons of people to watch the Oscars, Grammys and all the others award shows no one watches any longer? Have Sweet Anita be your host. Simple as that.

    Loved him in the movie “Accepted” in which he played a phoney college professor

    Best Original Score is actually one of the few categories I watch.

    nice to see Lewis doing his own material instead of reading rants fans write for him. This was pretty funny though.

    Lew needs to get back in front of an audience, stat! Not just a green screen.

    The crafts need their own equivalent of the Oscars. Plenty of folks follow influencers on clothes, hair and make-up, not to mention special effects and set design. Are you listening, IATSE?

    I just don’t agree with the notion that an animal that lives because of us can’t serve us and end up eaten by us. Maybe i get it with wildlife but those steaks were grown like grain…and perhaps even artificially conceived…
    Look, if it was us being some Supreme alien race’s cattle…hey, if they feed us well and treat us with dignity, that beats homelessness and sickness, I’d say

    If they let Lewis host the Oscars in whatever manner he wanted I would watch.

    When celebrities stop pontificating maybe persons will start watching the Oscars again then again maybe not. I stopped watching about five years ago and will never watch again. When you sit in front of a television to be entertained the last thing you want is rich people telling you what to think and feel or who to vote for.

    They didn’t remove the awards, they’ll give it off air and then edit it into the broadcast.

    Your show’s alternate motto should be ~We speak the truth~ thanks

    Combine 2 dumb ideas, to produce one great idea. Have the winners send their acceptances via tweets.

    Back in Black is always one of my favorite parts of the Daily Show! They should have more comedians for similar segments.
