Let's Talk Oscars

The Oscars have entered a decadent phase in which they are secondary to their own hype. If I understand ABC's schedule for "Oscar Sunday"?a new calendrical institution to rank with Black Friday and Super Tuesday and Football Night in America?the show airs at 8:30 p.m. ET. But the pre-show ("On the Red Carpet at the Oscars") starts at 7 p.m., and the pre-pre-show ("On the Red Carpet at the Oscars") starts at 4:30 p.m., and the post-show, also called "On the Red Carpet at the Oscars," starts at 11:30 p.m. ET. This is not to mention a syndicated ante-pre-pre-show ("On the Red Carpet") running in "select markets." There's a break for the "news" somewhere in there.
