Some TV show on Sunday

Just start at the pinnacle of his career, weekly viewings of My Giant.

I thought it was the worst of the shows in quite a while, despite Hathaway's willingness. Two hosts are fine (Baldwin and Martin were fine last year). "Performing" hosts are fine (as with Jackman). But even if Franco has been present and accounted for, they didn't really have anything to do (there were good moments in the opening but Billy Crystal was doing it better 15 years ago). Though "I have news from the future, microphones get smaller" was a great line.

Didn't help that after the first two awards there were no real surprises all evening and only a couple noteworthy acceptance speeches. But it probably wouldn't have been ethical for them to give Hailee Steinfeld the award just for the interest it would cause.
