Brutal. Savage. Epic. And EXACTLY what Hollyweird needed to hear from one of their own. :nod:

You could tell the well-dressed Hollywood jamokes were very uncomfortable when Ricky skewered them and their fatuous values. “You all arrived in limos with license plates made by Felicity Huffman!” Gold!

I heard that last night after the game. Was hoping to hear the censored parts. It's nice to see rich people squirm.

And judging by the looks on some faces they were uncomfortable with laughing at it. :rofl: :notworthy:

Neither was Donald Trump.

How sad is it that Kylie Jenner is the #2 paid celebrity in the world? At least Taylor Swift kind of has talent.

I took it as more of a way to boost future viewership than anything. It had been bleeding ratings for years.

Just a guess on my part, but I don't think anyone who is picked to host a major prime time Hollywood awards show is somehow being shunned by Hollywood. :?

I honestly don't think it works that way. :lol:

This ^
The thing that seems to confuse us all is that humans aren't as narrow scope as we would like to believe

Hollywood (whatever that means)
Isn't as dimwitted and myopic as its loudest dumbest voices
Just like the Fox News echo chamber isn't as myopic and dimwitted as its loudest voices

more than half that audience was loving that roasting by Gervais
and some weren't

Things aren't as small and stupid as they seem to be
and they try hard to seem that way - but there is light in each group

For the vast majority of conservatives who work in entertainment, going to set or the office each day has become a game of avoidance and secrecy. The political closet is now a necessity for many in an industry that is among the most liberal in the country.

Well, he's about as qualified to comment on anything as the people Gervais was going after are.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?
