I was glad I did..and didn't mind anything at all that our little dougie houser did. I didn't see the "in his shorts" display..not sure how we missed it but we did. The only part I didn't really care much for or "get" was the "briefcase" bit. *shrug* :)Wsprsweetly Of Cottageshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17990765326246470929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1504757647826212517.post-55153087304774234382015-02-26T05:54:22.576-05:002015-02-26T05:54:22.576-05:00We watch Dowton Abbey and Grantchester but not the...We watch Dowton Abbey and Grantchester but not the Oscarsdiane bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12002292118984909883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1504757647826212517.post-22570118232492983912015-02-24T20:15:23.075-05:002015-02-24T20:15:23.075-05:00p.s.

I also thought Lady Gaga did a great rendition of all the songs to the Sound of Music, and thought she was very gracious to Julie Andrews when she appeared on stage afterwards, as Julie was to Lady Gaga. I have always been a fan of Julie Andrews.DeniseinVAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08494518513936310345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1504757647826212517.post-16802044474420905062015-02-24T20:12:26.905-05:002015-02-24T20:12:26.905-05:00I used to watch Doogie Howser but would have to re...I used to watch Doogie Howser but would have to refresh my memory and watch a show or two to see if I enjoyed it or not. We watched the Oscars all the way through because of our son and daughter-in-law coming over. I have to say the company was excellent but I found the show a bit lackluster. To be fair I hadn't seen any of the movies and didn't recognize a lot of the stars. NPH was okay as the host, I have seen worse. His dance routine I thought was impressive.

I blame it on time constraints. I'm really not much of a movie person. I never go and usually watch only what we get at work. I think I only recorded the Oscars to say I had watched them. I'll probably just delete it without seeing it at all and go for Downton Abbey instead.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05673288414533354350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1504757647826212517.post-79217446084075937972015-02-24T18:34:51.069-05:002015-02-24T18:34:51.069-05:00We're both Downton fans....we tape it just in ...We're both Downton fans....we tape it just in case I fall asleep early...:)JPjp@A Green Ridgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15217268829093983376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1504757647826212517.post-84071200458138621502015-02-24T15:34:36.916-05:002015-02-24T15:34:36.916-05:00I watched the Oscars with Greg and enjoyed it for ...I watched the Oscars with Greg and enjoyed it for the most part. It does go on too long though. I'm always hoping they will cut out some of the musical numbers, but I guess everyone but me likes them. I've been watching Grantchester and enjoying it a lot.

One year I was in Germany and the time zone made me watch after they had actually been on. I was watching military cable, and my cousin stayed away from the newspapers and all so she could enjoy them if I stayed quiet and let her listen.Out on the prairiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09548162534362532705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1504757647826212517.post-76209331919009438602015-02-23T21:50:24.213-05:002015-02-23T21:50:24.213-05:00Too bad Grantchester is over.

British dramas are good but short (in episodes per year), but perhaps that is why they are so good -- quality over quantity.Anvilcloudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07974744042579564912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1504757647826212517.post-44629834914168619142015-02-23T21:23:44.370-05:002015-02-23T21:23:44.370-05:00I did watch the awards show for the first time in ...I did watch the awards show for the first time in years. I felt that Neil Patrick Harris did a good job for the most part but some of his jokes fell a little flat. Since I had not seen most of the movies i was in the dark about which would win. I was surprised that I predicted a lot of the winners. I felt sure that Boyhood would win some because of the time they took to film it. The Imitation Game was about a subject that is relevant today but steeped in history which indicates something they like. The Theory of Everything about Stephen Hawking is a sentimental favorite. Whiplash I had not heard of so I expected little. I was surprised that there were not more awards for Selma, American Sniper, or Foxcatcher. I was beginning to think Birdman was going to win nothing and then they sort of caught fire toward the end. The Grand Budapest Hotel was a surprise all the way around for me. I believe the voters usually go for something a little less zany.Emma Springfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10543689047463574012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1504757647826212517.post-10743898972902748082015-02-23T20:49:37.369-05:002015-02-23T20:49:37.369-05:00My all time favorite OSCAR is Oscar Meyer....
