Kudos to Jon Stewart for a job well done even though he is already getting criticized as a host. They say the big stars just don't get him. Critics can be so harsh.
I loved some of his clever jokes like the Dick Cheney shot Bjork, the Walk the Line was Ray for white people and then the recruiting for Scientology - very funny Jon Stewart style. He was quick and smart and should be happy with his performance. Hopefully it will reflect in the ratings which we will know more about in the morning. Here were some of the evenings highlights and fun times:
As expected, Reese and George excepted their awards very gracefully.
Ben Stiller, Will Farrell and Steve Carrell make asses of themselves for our enjoyment.

Poor Jennifer Garner almost spills on the stage twice but laughs it off by letting us know she does her own stunts.
Philip looks very ready to accept his award from Hilary Swank. He then gave one of the most touching speeches about his Mom. What a nice guy.
Jack Nicholson gives the upset of the evening as Crash won Best Picture. Congrats to Crash.
And I just like this pic of Clooney and Nicole so I am adding it before the list of winners.
