The Academy Awards aired tonight, lasting for 3 1/2 hours. Having been turned off by those Hollywood presentations in the past, there was no desire to ever see another one. Those shows had become worse and worse with vulgar language, sexual innuendos, anti-God, anti-American sentiments and was becoming more of a platform for political propaganda than to acknowledge good films and actors. Then.....
Then the recent Screen Actor's Guild Awards Show came on which was a staging disaster. It was not coordinated, was choppy, actors didn't know when to enter or exit or where to go. When they did get in place, they had no stage presence, stumbled over words, and were so awkward that it was embarrassing. To add to the mix, Betty White made crude sexual innuendos about some men among the attendees. Not becoming to her.
Performers in the audience exhibited hostility to winners which was caught on camera during quick audience shots. It was the worst program ever to fill a TV screen. Plus, they called all performers, 'actors,' instead of calling males, actors and females, actressess which took more time since they had to explain that this one coming is a male actor and this one is a female actor. It was so annoying that this writer vowed to never watch an award show again. read more »
