David Kronke was appointed Mayor of Television after a bloodless coup in 2000. Since then, he has improved infrastructure, championed greater educational opportunities and fought for reforms that have utterly erased corruption and incompetence from the television industry. Since Mr. Kronke has ascended to power, Television is a far better place. Live-blogging the Oscars©: Now, your glamorous evening is complete
Like a police officer assigned with the tragic task of informing family members of the death of a loved one, the sad duty of live-blogging the Academy Awards© ceremony has come to this site. We will keep you apprised of Jon Stewart’s monologue, the inevitably execrable song-and-dance numbers, the memorable acceptance speeches (provided there are any) and, of course, how swiftly Earth tilts off its axis and plunges toward the sun should “Juno” pull off an upset Best Picture win.
Depending on how bored we are ahead of time, we might venture into some of the blithering red carpet coverage in what should be a fairly fruitful search to locate particularly idiotic questions. After all, in attendance will be the black hole of stupidity: George Pennacchio, still star-struck after all these years.
As always, all this pageantry only if the blog server can keep its wits about it. And only a fool would count on that. So if you have nothing else going on at the time, we’ll be setting up shop no later than 5 p.m. Sunday. And if you do have something else going on at the time, you really need to realign your priorities.

Go dude. Someone has to take over for Lisanti. And Finke is just too painful.
