Ugly Betty RIP 2006-2010 courtesy TheInsider.com
It’s true. Ugly Betty will be laid to rest mid-April. I don’t know if it was the ratings or the moving slots, but Betty is gone! Saving Grace, Three Rivers and The Tudors will meet their makers later this year, and Nip/Tuck has already had it’s last breath. We all know that Lost is kaput, so what else is there to watch? Well, I love Glee, and Grey’s Anatomy is still going strong. There is still hope…

Zoe Saldana at the Oscars 2010, courtesy of The Washington Post
It was my favorite awards show, the Oscars and man was it a good ride. Two hosts are not better than one, I mean Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin were funny, but why are they together? Were they trying to sell the It’s Complicated dvd? We need one host, and dammit, get Neil Patrick Harris for next year. That mofo is a gay Billy Crystal: funny, charming, and not to mention, he can sing and dance. But I digress…I predicted The Hurt Locker would win, as well as Mo’Nique and Sandra Bullock. I did not expect The Hurt Locker to win for Best Picture. I thought they would throw Avatar or Inglorious Basterds a bone. I did not predict Zoe Saldana would wear a dress that looks like Cookie Monster was eating Snuffleupagus. Sarah Jessica Parker’s dress needs to make up it’s mind: you are backless, halter or a long evening gown; decide! And what the hell, why were Farrah Fawcett and Bea Arthur cut from the memoriam segment? Then there was the woman who suffered from Kanye West Syndrome. Elinor Burkett interrupted Roger Ross Williams’ acceptance speech, and started talking crazy talk. I just think that this year’s Oscars was a bowl of fun!

There were not too many upsets this year, except in the Dramatic Actor category. I didn’t expect Michael C. Hall to win, let alone John Lithgow for Dexter, but damn. And there was no love for True Blood, so I was disappointed. I was surprised that Courtney Cox-Arquette was nominated for CougarTown. It is a great show with cheesiness wrapped up in meaningful vignettes, but it doesn’t have as much gusto as Modern Family. But I digress…Ricky Gervais was awesome and hysterical, especially when he just massacred Mel Gibson’s drinking troubles. I cannot wait for his new show, aptly titled The Ricky Gervais Show, to hit HBO later this year.
