The Oscar's have never been entertaining, interesting, or lively. Same with the Grammy's. These type of award shows are just as boring, dull, and unseasoned as CSPAN. Just the way uncultured Eurotrash like it.
Just because something is boring and lifeless doesn’t automatically make it high class. These "prestigious" award shows create an uppity, snobby, elitist, and pretentious controlled environment with an unsettling air of toxicity, narcissism, politics, and fakeness. These shows overrate themselves and pretend to have more importance and substance than they actually do. And then they have their media machines overhype them up. I don't care that these award shows have existed since 1752 or before the fall of Ancient Rome. They are just not relevant enough outside of one's musical resumes and Stan Wars where people are bragging about how their favorite artists sold more records and won more Grammy's than another person's favorite artist / musical group. The Oscar's and Grammy's are basically the "Ivy league" institutions of the musical world and many feel like "a degree" (trophy) from them make them "valid" musicians.
Meanwhile, the VMAs and BET Awards HAD more life, fun, and interesting things to them. No you don't have to be ratchet, violent, tasteless, or classless to have an amazing event or ceremonial process, but you don't have to make an exclusive club of hot air and act like you're Godlike when that hot air is nothing but your own farts gassing you up as you sniff them up your noses. Then you look down your noses at the "lessers", "unworthy" and "undesirables." You can keep those Grammy's, Oscar's, and whatever else and may the ratings continue to decline.
