I went 15/23 (+5 alts)

The winners spread the wealth. Probably one of the better sets of winners in awhile.

As for the show....ooof. The worst Oscars I've ever seen. I will forgive quite a bit due to the pandemic. However... No clips. No energy. No humor. No cutoffs. The last thing I usually like, but was it half the winners goal to just ramble on? And the order?!?!?! I pretty much checked out once I realized Best Picture wasn't going to be last. That order really blew up in their faces with the last two winners. One clearly would rather be doing anything else, and the other wasn't there. So anticlimactic. And get rid of Questlove. Soderbergh, you got some splainin' to do. 

I'll be back tomorrow/most likely Tuesday with a wrap-up, which probably won't be as in depth as usual. 

Oh, and the "Husavik" performance was probably the best thing of the night.
