Tuned into the Oscars pre-show for the 1st time in years and holy cow....now I know why I haven't watched it in years. I'm all for representation.... but after 30 minutes in, it's been 85% black. Heck, BET Awards has more "diversity" than these "awards". They are over doing it.

30 seconds in and we already got a statement on young black men and the fear they have to live with, even in Hollywood.

Watch something else.

ETA: not to be an a-hole, but what were you expecting?

Not much as far as production value. Camera is soooo shaky.

I never cared about the Oscars, but I would still watch to see which people/movies would win. Now I'll for sure never watch it again. It's fricking garbage. Nothing but narcissists patting themselves on the back, political statements, and unfunny jokes.

That two ton dump truck hosting the pre game was enough to make me change the channel in under 5 seconds.

I normally don’t pay attention to the racial makeup of a production, but Jesus H.

Wife and I turned it on 10 minutes before for the pregame show. It was a black host talking to a black singer

Then the Oscars start, black host walks in, gives a statement about George Floyd, then talks about all the black nominees

That’s it for us

Forgot this was on. Turned it on....weird setup.

But hey, they are at least doing something in-person.

But this feels very uncomfortable.

These are the first Oscars I won't be watching in years. I didn't even realize they were this weekend until my sister told me last night. She lives in West Hollywood, and she said no one out there has really been talking about the show.

All award shows are on the verge of fading into obscurity like the major beauty pageants.

I have not seen a single nominated film this year, and I usually go out of my way to see as many as possible.
