I didn't know the Oscars were on last night< wen I flipped on the TV I saw John Stewart hosting something. And damnit if it wasn't the funniest thing I've watched in a while. Some jokes from his collection:
1. (cutting back from commercial) ".... and that is why I thing Scientology should be spread across the planet!"
I WISH they had the camera on the audience when he cracked that one.
2) Gay cowboy montage of classic cowboy movies doing really gay things. Personal fav, one cowboy looks at the other " What we are about to do is between you, me and the horse (pats horse's ass)
3) " I see Steven Spielberg is in the audience. Director of Schindler's List and Munich. I think I speak for all Jews when i say that we can[t wait to see whats next. Do I smell a trilogy?
4) "Bjork was going to be here but was accidently shot by the vice president"
The humor made up for the otherwise dry speeches and lame performances.
It was a very lame show, but the political ads and Stewart were very good.
