Brit Shit

Word on the red carpet is Oscar producers are in talks with funnyman Ricky Gervais about hosting next year's ceremony. Perfect choice. A heavy dose of very British self deprecation would do wonders in balancing the usual Hollywood glitz. Previous host Jon Stewart's brand of cutesy rebel politics is growing tiresome. Plus if McCain loses, he won't have much content. Which can only mean more time for those wonderfully unmemorable Best Song nominees.
