Not a good showing for me this year - last year I did very well. Congrats to Andrea and Arlene!

Let me warn you of the perils of TIVO... :( I forgot that the show always runs over but the TIVO will stop at the end of the alloted time.

By the time we got to the best actress announcement the TIVo was out of time - flipping to live TV you can then backtrack 1/2 hour, BUT.... since we didn't start watching until more than an hour into it, even with scanning thru commercials and pausing to debate the awards, refill wine glasses etc., we were still too far behind and missed everything after best actress - argh!

How embarrasing - noone will willingly come to our party next year. Flipping over to the news we learned who won best picture, director etc. but not the right way to do it! :eek: :eek:
