The Oscars are happening, officially. And there will be a host, as announced this morning by ABC.

Award winning director Glenn Weiss will be at the helm on March 27th. The show returns to the Dolby Theater at Hollywood and Highland.

Omicron be damned! Full speed ahead. I don’t care if we have to wear hazmat suits! Of course everyone will have to be vaxxed and masked.

Will Packer is producer. Now who is the host? Please, Academy, get a host. Get Jimmy Kimmel. Include all the songs. Do a tribute to Marvel and have all the super heroes on stage. Have all three Spider Men appear throughout the show. Don’t have the evening end with “Drive My Car” getting Best Picture.

Anyway, we’re back!
