Worst commentary I have ever seen

To listen to the horrible commentary given by Billy Bush and Nancy O'Dell after each winner was announced was like fingernails on a chalkboard. Bush had to inject his tiresome, unthoughtful opinions at every turn. Before each award was announced we had to listen to who was supposed to win and why he was in favor of a particular actor or actress. I almost turned it off after the first ten minutes because of his insipid remarks. Someone in charge of the show must have told him to tone it down a little bit, because he managed to be a bit less offensive in the second half of the show. I don't think that giving one's personal opinion has any place on a show like this. I only pray that the writers can reach an agreement before this travesty is foisted upon the Oscar show. If there is a similar show for the Oscars, I just hope that they don't allow NBC to host it again after tonight's debacle.
