We Watched the Academy Awards So You Wouldn't Have To!

It was this week's biggest event and chances are you might not have bothered to see it. No, not the New Hampshire Presidential Primary, the Academy Awards. Why do we say this? Because the TV ratings for this year's Oscars were the lowest ever! Ever! And if you didn't watch it we can't really blame you. After all, it lasted longer than "The Irishman" and had a million commercials. Not to mention categories you don't care about, boring acceptance speeches and interminable song and dance numbers. Besides, you had to be at work in the morning. So we took one for the team and watched the whole thing from weak beginning to admittedly surprising ending. Just listen to us recap the highs and lows and you'll be able to hold your own at water fountain conversations everywhere.
