Or the Olympics. Or any other sports shows or awards show. If you don't care if a company is changing its sales policy, I certainly don't care what your viewing habits are.

I'll watch parts of the Academy Awards like I always do, and probably tune out the long, boring middle parts. The end of it might be interesting - Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway are presenting the Best Picture Oscar again. Hopefully they give them the right card this time and the accounting dude in charge of the cards isn't ogling Emma Stone instead of doing his job.

I'm a movie fan but I stopped watching years ago when it became less about the awards and more about causes and grandstanding pomp. I enjoyed it back when Billy Crystal hosted it. He brought good humor and poked more fun at the actors instead of politics. But yeah, each to his own.
