Here are some reasons why you should watch Oscars tonight:
The presence of the scene-stealing canine from "The Artist" will liven up any doggone tired awards show. We can just hear the "ohhs" and "ahhs" spanning the globe should Uggie prance onto the red carpet or scamper up to the podium. Let's hope common sense prevails and the beloved Jack Russell terrier does show up -- still undetermined as of Sunday morning -- and show the humans what star quality is all about.
has unfailingly delivered the most elegant acceptance speeches we've heard. We're biting our nails and keeping fingers crossed she'll be working her magic once more tonight. What a class act.
The Cirque show: : You never know what to expect from Cirque du Soleil, the trippy troupe slated to contort and jump their way through a movie-themed performance tonight.

Everyone thinks the Best Picture winner could go to “The Descendants”, but it could go to something else. Either, “Hugo” or “War Horse” could take the win too. These three films would be the most likely choices to win “Best Picture”. I would be surprised if “The Help” actually gets it but I doubt it though. “The Help” is a great movie.
I’ll be DVR’ing tonight’s “Walking Dead” episode, while I’m watching the Oscars. I’ll watch the new “Walking Dead” episode tomorrow. I watch the Oscars yearly.
