Did Nina Metz, your Academy Awards reporter, see the same program I did? The one replete with rude comments and tasteless jokes?  Did she enjoy the vulgar boob song, which left even some of the actresses with shocked looks on their faces?

After that, we had about three hours of boredom, relieved only by the breathtakingly
beautiful "Les Misérables" medley.

I ended the night annoyed I had wasted the evening. If the Academy doesn't remedy this next year, I won't make the same mistake.
