I thought the news would be on, so I turned the local ABC channel on in time to see a kid who went to my high school win twice in consecutive categories, for the music score from La La Land. They still have a great music program.

Halle Berry looks amazing.

You missed something truly bizarre: the Best Picture Award was given to the wrong picture!

After a few thank-you speeches, it turned out that a copy of the Best Actress card had been given to Warren Beatty. He balked at reading it out loud because he knew something was wrong, so he shoved it in front of Faye Dunaway, who glanced at it and read La La Land. A couple minutes later there was commotion on the stage and it was explained that it should be Moonlight.

Stranger than fiction.
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.

I have a low tolerance for awards shows, so I don't watch for long unless I know someone who's in the running or it's a case of bizarre timing, like last night.

I only watch the comedians making fun of the Oscars. Snakes have sex is more interesting and more meaningful.
I may be schizophrenic, but at least I have each other.
