I almost didn't. ABC pulled its signal off of =10Cablevision for most of
Sunday. At 8:43 or 8:44 PM, the signal came back on. I checked again
at 8:45 PM. And there it was, just in time to see Christoph Waltz
deliver his acceptance speech. Had I checked two minutes earlier, I
would have written the evening off.
But I did watch from 8:45 on.
Pretty bad show.
Sorry, but I'm too old to appreciate a John Hughes reunion/tribute.
Esp. when they had one of my cultural heroes, Roger Corman, there in
the audience. I would much rather have seen a tribute to him on Oscar
night and not brief clips from a separate Governors Award ceremony.
