       Seth MacFarlane: Yay or Nay?
       By: The Dude Date: February 25, 2013, 6:18 am

       While I enjoyed some of his jokes, most of them fell flat
       (something about DDL going to rescue Don Cheadle) and some were
       downright cringeworthy (We Saw Your Boobs). One of the weakest
       Oscar hosting of recent times, though not as bad as the
       Hathaway/Franco fiasco of 2011.
       Shatner was correct in predicting that it will be a disaster.

       I thought it was worse than Hathaway/Franco.
       The only things I liked were the Sound of Music gag, the sock
       puppets, and Dan Rad prancing around on stage with JGL.

       Yeah it's like the Academy tried too hard to be hip or funny or
       whatever. I also cringed when Halle Berry said "pussy galore"
       when she presented the Bond tribute. EDIT: Oh and Ted's
       presenting. Ugh.

       Nay. It was too low brow for the Academy and other than DanRad,
       JGL, and Captain Kirk it was awful. The opening monologue was
       thirty minutes long, it looked like everyone in the room was
       uncomfortable. His boobs song and then the loser song at the end
       were so bad. The great parts of last night had little to do with
       him, the tribute to musicals and the so inappropriate but so
       funny Jaws play offs.

       I thought he was okay. I thought Anne Hathaway and James Franco
       were better though (who'd have thought anyone would say that?).
       He could have chopped that opening monologue in half though. Why
       couldn't he just do a couple jokes, then the dance, then start
       the show? It just dragged on and on and on...

       The ratings were the highest they've been in six years. I hope
       this means they don't ask him back. I think the uptick in
       ratings had more to do with the accessibility of the BP noms
       this year and people probably felt more compelled to tune into a
       show that they had a vested interest in.

       I know for me, the only reason I tuned in was to see all the
       musical numbers. I hope they continue that tradition.

       YAY! - I thought he was extremely funny and I liked all of the
       jokes

       Sorry, I meant to hit reply and accidentally edited your post,
       but its fixed!
       I don't know if I'd watch next year if he were the host.

       I thought it was okay. Like Dana, I loved the Sound of Music,
       sock puppet Flight, and JGL and Dan dancing. So cool.
       While I didn't like the Chris Brown/Rihanna joke, I thought it
       was hilarious that Robert Downey Jr. was the only one to visibly
       clap.
