Best Television Shows

The Oscar shows have long had a problem attracting the younger crowd, or at least the part that doesn’t spend every waking moment organizing the AV club’s equipment cabinet. So this year they have tried to “hip it up.”

The Academy has hired DJ Joel Madden to serve as the ceremony’s “house DJ” for the broadcast.

Producer Adam Shankman said he wanted the show to have more of a party atmosphere. Does that mean there will be a birthday clown and a “Pin the Tail on the Fellini” game too?
