DIE ACTOR DIE

It seems he had very little time to prepare. Apparently there was some kind of strike thang…

Money shot:

The biggest challenge, Mr. Stewart said, is tailoring his personal comedy style to this situation: “The thing I always have to fight is I have a tendency to undercut. It’s the comedy of deflation in large amount. That doesn’t necessarily work on the greatest night of their lives. There is a strong tension between respecting these people and somehow deflating them while standing in that room. I like that. I find that tension interesting.”

I have to admit, I am surprised Jon is back. I loved Jon’s self mocking and cynical sense of humor, but I thought he fell a bit flat last time. Still, it’s good to see him back.

For me, Mr. Steve Martin was the best host. He had just the right mix of respect, absurdity and sarcasm.
