It's almost time for Kermit and Miss Piggy. Also, after you see the Best Original Song award and the Muppets, let us know your thoughts.

Saw Kermit and Piggy talking about their first time at the movies...

spoke about going to the drive-in, and talked about her first time being on the stage.
They then presented a performance by Cirque Soleil and though I did like that it was set to music by Danny Elfman—of which I recognized a segment from the movie Edward Scissorhands—my Oscar snub anger rose, cause that was a spot they could have been given to either of the two best original songs.

Good thing I'm DVRin' this. I was out with friends so I missed them.

And now they're on best original score, so I hope best Original Song is next.
