... as Oscar host?

He has gotten, so far, mixed reviews. Some have slammed him, and the whole telecast, as boring. Others, such as Ebert and Roeper, said he was excellent. Ebert said that Stewart reminded him of Johnny Carson, longtime Oscar host, and that Stewart could be host for life if he so wished.

Myself, I give him a B+. There were some good LOL moments, but you could tell that he was used to playing to a smaller crowd, that there was a bit of the fish out of water feeling. I personally love The Daily Show and think that it is one of the funniest shows on TV. Maybe a few more bits like the fake "For Your Consideration" ads would have helped...
