    Am I the only one noticing the #Oscars red carpet sound going in and out? Sounds like Kimmel's unnecessary censorship bit.

    Wish I had Oprah money so I could pay some of these #Oscar stars & starlets to say something really awful (or honest!) about their co-stars!

    "The quest to make Tommy Lee Jones laugh begins now." MacFarland with a joke that does, indeed make Jones laugh at #Oscars

    Hmm. Wish MacFarlane hadn't started with a quest to make Tommy lee Jones laugh and stuck with trying to entertain rest of us at #Oscars

    Said Django script was "loosely based on Mel Gibson's voice mails." ugh. Nice try Seth at #Oscars.

    Are actresses pretending to hate Seth MacFarlane's "We Saw Your Boobs" song or are they just channeling Twitter at #Oscars?

    So did Seth MacFarlane just outsource his dancing in #Oscars to Channing Tatum?

    MacFarlane stumbles delivering "Denzel made Nutty Professor movies" #Oscar joke. Think he flashed on Eddie Murphy & Denzel kicking his butt?

    That #Oscars opening felt like a Family Guy rorschach test; if you love MacFarlane's animated shows, you probably loved the opening.

    I made this joke when he won last year, but it still looks like Edgar Winter just won #Oscar for Life of Pi cinematography.

    @bsabatinelli Can't stand Family Guy. So I'll be complaining about MacFarlane's humor all night.

    Jokes about George Clooney's great looks would go over better if he wasn't sporting a big ol's Paul Bunyan beard at #Oscars
