He wants to cut some awards, or at least the speeches that go with them. I would use the saved time to add some awards for things like "most awesome stunt", "coolest chase scene", "most transparent product placement", "best explosion", "best motor vehicle", and what have you. These awards wouldn’t go to anyone in particular but would acknowledge the scene and picture. We’d all get to see highlights and argue about the choices, but we wouldn’t have to listen to anyone speechify.

The cat could go into Chris Muir's strip where he couldn't possibly do any harm.
