Critical End!

UPDATE: Another awesome year! Read the recap below for post-Oscar reminiscing.

The fun starts later tonight, folks. Stay tuned to this post.

"No words? Screw The Artist."

This Sunday (4PT/7ET on ABC) grand dame of awards shows Billy Crystal returns to the small screen to make us feel like maybe we care about the Oscars still. And it must be working already, because Logan and I are on board for another year of live bloggin’ fun.

How does it work you ask? Don’t worry, you big dumb idiot. It’s easy. When you sit down to watch the awards, make sure you’ve got your laptop (or mobile device!) tuned to this site where you’ll find running commentary by me and Logan for the entirety of the broadcast. Check out the snazzy replays of our 2011, 2010,or 2009 events to get the idea.

UPDATE: Another year in the can. Read the transcript of the night’s events below!

UPDATE: And we’re off! Read and comment away!

The fun starts in a half hour, folks! Stay tuned to this space.

Well, not so much free…and the sex part is mostly a lie too.  Come to think of it, what that should probably read is “Reminder: Oscar Live Blog with Logan and Ryan Sunday Night”, but you wouldn’t read about that now, would you?

Oh yes. It’s back. This Sunday (5PT/8ET on ABC) James Franco and Anne Hathaway will awkwardly tag-team the Oscars, and–for the third year in a row–so will Logan and I.
