A sanitation engineer. A housekeeper. Good thing i had 5hour energy to keep me going. What will you do with your next five hours . Welcome back with us this beautiful thirsty thursday here. Universal Studios Hollywood where its city walk, and it is glorious, and were having a good old time. If theres ever a good time to be in l. A. , its around now, which is around the time of the oscars. The 85th annual oscars. I cant believe its been that many years. I was at the first one. Of course, you were. Jason kennedy from e joins us. He was not. Hello. How great is this that theyre here in los angeles . Its so good to see you guys. You can stop me whenever you want. This is going to be an interesting year at the oscars. Seth mcfarlane is hosting, and you know that is going to be full of surprises. I think a lot of people expected him to host the Golden Globes first. This isnt a roast, were celebrating the arts here, so hopefully he keeps it classy. But i think its going to be a good move. Hes a talented singer. They might do a big musical number to begin with. Maybe an appearance by ted the teddy bear. There are only so many things ted can say on television. Ted can get dirty. Thats a naughty little bear. Best picture, what do you see . Argo. Its on a hot streak. It won the bafta and the sag award, the critics choice award, the golden globe, or maybe lincoln. What about lincoln . It got 12 nominations. Thats the most, right . Its one short of the most. I mean of this batch. Of this batch it is, but its one short of the record, and then life of pi what, like ben hur or yeah, one of those. Life of pi has 11 nominations. Its not going to be life of pi. Is it the whole deal if you one win those other awards it means youll get the oscars . A lot of them are precursors, and then people are saying silent one could be Silver Linings playbook. That could be one that comes up there and surprises everybody. Everybody is talking about the fact that how could it be best picture without ben affleck being nominated for best director. He got the snub. He won the dga, which is a huge honor. I think the academy got it wrong with not putting him in there for best director. Among those that are in for best director, who do you think will take it . Steven speilberg, for sure. When he makes movies about historical figures or moments, i think about schindlers list he won for that. For lincoln he was incredible, and he didnt get nominated for warhorse which was a big surprise. I think this is speilbergs year. If not, david r. Russell, Silver Linings playbook. All right. What about best actor . Thats a tough one. We better go through these quickly. I think hugh jackman has a chance. People are saying, you know, if its not daylewis. He has three nominations, and, listen, if he wins this, its never been done before. He has never won three oscars for best actor before. Thats never been done by any man before. He deserves it. If its not daniel day lewis, i think it could be hugh jackman. A lot of people adore hugh. He certainly deserves it. As much as daylewis. Theyre so different. The performances and movies are so completely different. What about best actress . Its definitely between Jennifer Lawrence or jessica chastain. Jennifer lawrence, its a perfect role for her. She just won the sag award. I think were going to hear her name. Jennifer lawrence. Okay. Thank you. I love your shirt. Thank you. I appreciate it. I love being here. Of course, you do. Coming up next, our girl sara haynes. [ female announcer ] going to sleep may be easy, but when you wake up in the middle of the night it can be frustrating. Its hard to turn off and go back to sleep. Intermezzo is the first and only prescription sleep aid approved for use as needed in the middle of the night when you cant get back to sleep. Its an effective sleep medicine you dont take before bedtime. Take it in bed only when you need it and have at least four hours left for sleep. Do not take intermezzo if you have had an allergic reaction to drugs containing zolpidem, such as ambien. Allergic reactions such as shortness of breath or swelling of your tongue or throat may occur and may be fatal. Intermezzo should not be taken if you have taken another sleep medicine at bedtime or in the middle of the night or drank alcohol that day. Do not drive or operate machinery until at least 4 hours after taking intermezzo and youre fully awake. Driving, eating, or engaging in other activities while not fully awake without remembering the event the next day have been reported. Abnormal behaviors may include aggressiveness, agitation, hallucinations, or confusion. Alcohol or taking other medicines that make you sleepy may increase these risks. In depressed patients, worsening of depression, including risk of suicide, may occur. Intermezzo, like most sleep medicines, has some risk of dependency. Common side effects are headache, nausea, and fatigue. So if you suffer from middleofthenight insomnia, ask your doctor about intermezzo and return to sleep again. Everybody say oh.
