~~Sunday night’s Oscar show, heavy on music from hit movies, was a winner. I would have enjoyed it more had it not run so long. KITV started screening red-carpet arrivals at 6 and began the awards show at 7:30 p.m. It ran until shortly past 11. Oscars should be given to winners in some of the lesser categories off-camera.
Host Seth MacFarlane did well. He sang, danced and cracked jokes. Ben Affleck's "Argo" won best picture and he should have won for best director, too, but he didn't even get nominated in that category. That's shameful.
