Awards season is fully upon us now. The Golden Globe awards were last night, the Oscar nominations come out next week, and then there's only a month until that ceremony. This was also my first year trying to watch a live event without cable. There were several options for watching but since I already have Hulu, I bumped up my service to their Live + no ads package.
Maybe I'm just stupid, but I could not get that damn thing to fast forward through the commercials, even when I paused during the broadcast to build up some of the recorded time (like with a DVR). It was very irritating and I will be looking into a different way to watch the Oscars.
At any rate, Ricky Gervais hosted for a record fifth time. He was... not great. I know he's gotten a reputation for being very caustic to the Hollywood elite which would be fine if he were also funny about it, but this year seemed very phoned in. I also did not appreciate the request to attendees not to mention their politics or stands. I get that it's an entertainment awards show and people tend to ramble on but telling people they can't use their platform to talk about what's important to them sounds dangerously close to a "just shut up and color inside the lines" kind of censorship. That is the last thing the world needs right now.
