All Things Oscars 2017

 The "Oscars" were an agonizing three hours and 45 minutes long . . . and the only truly interesting part happened at around the three hour and 42 minute mark.

It was when Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway announced the winner for Best Picture.  The WRONG winner.  They said it was "La La Land", and everybody came up and started giving their speeches.

But then the accountants who tally the votes came out to let everybody know that "Moonlight" had actually won.  It turns out Warren and Faye were handed the wrong envelope.

They were given the one for the PREVIOUS award, Best Actress.  And it said Emma Stone, for "La La Land".  You could tell they were confused, but Faye read "La La Land" because it was on the card. 

Jimmy Kimmel made a Steve Harvey joke, then Warren got back on the microphone to explain what happened.

Then Jimmy ended the show with this, quote, "I knew I would screw this show up, I really did.  Thank you for watching . . . I promise I'll never come back. Good night!"
