E: Yep, that’s what I figured was going to happen. Oscar loves what it loves – in this case, Joker, 1917, Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood, and The Irishman. Films by white men, for white men, starring white men, featuring almost no women or people of color. Let’s review:

Fall 2015 Television Preview: Tuesday
M: Welcome back to the Relatively Entertaining 2015 Fall TV Previews! We’re moving on to Tuesday, after a rousing fare of shows set to air on Mondays.
C: Yes, but rousing what, is the question… And if you answered, “my anger,” well, we’ve got nothing on par with Crazy Ex-Girlfriend for you today, but smarmy masculinist culture still makes an appearance. Happily, so do Rob Lowe and the Muppets!

E: That’s right – a very special ingenue will have made her first appearance just before you read this. Our new niece is March’s most exciting release for our family.
C: Sorry, Veronica Mars! But we’ve got lots of love left over for you — promise.

Oscar 2012: Post-Mortem
E: My friends, I don’t think I’ve ever been so happy to be wrong.
Before I get into the entire night, and how my predictions went, and the speeches and the dresses, I just have to say:
Meryl Streeeeeeeeeeeeep!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes!
