This is only vaguely related to this thread.

I did not watch the Academy Awards Ceremony at all this year. It is the first year in many that I have managed to do this-- For several years now, I have held the opinion that the Oscars are not worth my time to watch, in part because they go too long, in part because they do not interest me enough, and in part because I am trying to cut back on the amount of TV I watch. I am curious, though-- does anyone have any thoughts on the value of the Academy Awards? Is there a good, solid reason to watch them, or is it better to skip them and find out who won and perhaps watch a few of the winners?

I know the question is vague-- I barely know what I am asking myself.
