That's because they were beyond not funny. The opening bit where they edit them into all of the big movies was alright, but not the most creative thing in the world, and their opening "monologue" just wasn't funny. I'm sure someone write it for them, but there as very little humor in it. Usually those openings are edgy and hilarious. This one was far from it. And they even joked around about them being selected as the hosts to make the Oscars more hip to appeal to a younger audience. If that was the goal, the attempt failed miserably. I blame the producers more that I blame them, for choosing them and for coming up with a completely uninteresting show. It's amazing that a program designed to honor entertainment could be so unentertaining.
They would have been better off having 94 year old Kirk Douglas hosting. He presented one of the awards and even though you could hardly understand what he was saying her was hilarious!
