Awards season in Hollywood is in its final stretch. The suspense is rising. The Oscars are imminent.

The ceremony is always full of glitz and glamour, but for years it’s been plagued by disappointments. Long and boring broadcasts. Unjustified snubs. Clunky skits and speeches. Despite it all, Sam loves to watch, but he has some ideas to fix Hollywood’s biggest night.

Joining the show are two entertainment journalism heavyweights:

Jacqueline Coley is awards editor at Rotten Tomatoes and host of Seen on the Screen with Jacqueline Coley.

Clayton Davis is chief awards editor at Variety where he also hosts the Awards Circuit Podcast.
