It's a silly standard because even "reality" shows have writers but the unpredictable nature is what makes a difference to the NATAS folks.<BR/><BR/>The Josh Groban bit was inscrutable to me. I don't get it, didn't appreciate it, it had light comedic moments but if they had cut that and the 12+ minutes of yammering at the start from Oprah (what a waste) and the non-hosts, every winner would've had another minute to speak. And if they'd cut the rest of the unfunny banter between the non-hosts like Bergeron dropping Heidi (so dumb) then genuinely funny people (who can ad-lib) wouldn't have had their bits cut, like Neil Patrick Harris and Kristin Chenoweth. (Did you see them announce the nominations? They're comedic gold together.)<BR/><BR/>All that said, I must tell you that the line about Sally Field's bones made this entire review. :DDreamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13626151476799861765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1515401111310182067.post-2970121997927149112008-09-22T05:31:00.000-07:002008-09-22T05:31:00.000-07:00My husband loves the Magpies!"Amazing Race" starts...My husband loves the Magpies!<BR/><BR/>"Amazing Race" starts here on Sunday.
