Honestly, I don't understand anyone watching awards programs in the 21st century.
Back in my youth, if you didn't watch, you would not be able to know who won until the next day's newspaper ... or maybe two days, if the show went late.
Now, log-on and see the results realtime, without all the commercials and awful speeches.
Well also people used to know every single movie nominated, and had seen the performances. People don't go to the theater like they used to, they won't even see the nominees until the movies are streaming

These shows aren't for the viewers or the fans. They're for the narcissistic actors and 'insiders' who love nothing more than to preen and preach in front of a camera to tell the world just how much better they are than the rest of us lowly unwashed plebs.
They ALLOW us to peer into their world for a night, just so they can remind us all how much they really do care!
Mostly, they were thanking their friends and families or saying wonderful things about their co-stars, etc. Nice. Sweet.
Now? Well, I don't know, since I've not watched an award show in probably two decades. But I hear that they've gotten pretty bad.

If Ricky Gervais had come out there and shite on Cruise and Scientology, and the irony of a Hollywood party going on in the hotel where Whitney Houston died, and Will Smith being a poser, and how fricked up the Foreign Press association is in general... It would've been a funnier delivery and everyone would be in here applauding.

It's not that Carmichael was militant, he just doesn't have the award show persona.
