Jon was hilarious and those who don’t agree are obviously too lose to ‘know’ better. 30 - 60 years man get a new hobby. Comparing him to Ellen real wacko. Come on back Jon you were wonderful.

I like his performance very much. I hope he comes back next time.

Jon Stewart was a gracious host and the unforgetable moment was whe he invited the star from Once back on stage to share her thoughts. I was moved, Thank you Jon, for being human on an otherwordly evening. I love the Oscars.

Jon Stewart is boring, he simply does NOT have the sparkle that Billy Crystal has. HE’S NOT FUNNY NOR ENTERTAINING. I hope they bring Billy back if they want to keep their audience.

Jon Stewart did a remarkable job considering his time constraints. He improved upon his first academy awards appearance, which admittedly was more of a political rant along the lines of Michael Moore and Bill O’Reily, by taking lighter cracks at the actors. Overall, I’d say he’s a mainstay Oscar host.

Jon was brilliant! It’s not difficult to see that those who don’t like him are right wing conservatives who just won’t like anything that’s intelligent.

Jon Stewart was terrible. After a couple of minutes, I changed the channel and never went back. I rather watch Pride and Prejudice on PBS than to listen to his dribble. Billy Crystal was the BEST. So I decided to get the highlights from EXTRA! GREAT JOB, EVERYBODY!!!!!

Jon Stewart was awesome! He’s funny, natural, sweet.
The only reason to watch The Oscars is if they host is good and Jon Stewart was. It really feels like he has a distance to both himself and to Hollywood, something that’s quite rare and something that many viewers really appreciate. :)

WELL THE NUMBERS DON’T LIE ! 20% LESS VIEWERS THAN LAST YEAR ! WHEN WILL HOLLYWOOD EXEC’S WAKE-UP TO THE FACTS ! EXCEPT ” ENCHANTMENT “, ALL OF THE OSCARS WINNERS LOST $$$$$ FOR THEIR BACKERS ! BUT HEY, LET’S KEEP MAKING LOSERS !!! ” WHY NOT IT’S NOT OUR MONEY ! “, SAID ONE STUDIO EXEC.

The vote totals do not represent the comments page, what gives? Jon Stewart is NOT funny. Leave the politics out of the show. It’s supposed to be about the movies, which are not good any more either.

STEWART WAS WITH OUT A DOUBT THE WORSE HOST I HAVE EVER SEEN IN OVER 40 YEARS WATCHING. I HAD TO CHANGE THE STATION AFTER WATCHING FOR 15 MINUTES WILL NEVER WATCH AGAIN IF THAT PUTZ IS ON.

BILLY CRYSTAL WAS THE BEST OF RECENT YEARS, BRING HIM BACK. STEWAERT SUCKS

STEWART IS THE WORSE HOST I HAVE EVER SEEN ON THE SHOW IN THE 30 YEARS I HAVE BEEN WATCHING IT, HE IS NOT SMOOTH AND HASN’T ANY PERSONALITY HE CERTAINLY IS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO ELLEN,BILLY CRYSTAL OR ANYONE ELSE I HAVE SEEN HOSTING. HE MADE THE SHOW VERY IRRITATING AND UNINTERESTING. IN SHORT HE STINKS

I watch the oscars to see who the academy members believe the best of the best are ! NOT to hear the liberal bent from the likes of Clooney et. el….!

I thoroughly enjoyed Jon Stewart — his comedy is refreshing; plus he is fine, fine, and oh — did I say — so fine and classy!

He’s not that funny, He’s not that bright, He’s not that good looking !….Other than that , He was great !!!

The OSCAR show goes out world wide and I do not think Jon’s jokes appropriate for world wide audiences ,also children should be able to be watching but not if he is host.

Unfortunately, the shows very poor production value was compounded by Stewart’s worst hosting that I have seen in my 60 years.

Ellen was much better last year

i am in minority
i disagree with 9 of 12 here

Jon was a great host I hope he’ll be back next year!!
