As this year’s Oscar host, Seth MacFarlane has already set tongues wagging with his cheekiness while announcing the nominees.

While Piers Morgan thought MacFarlane’s approach to this whole Oscar nominations thing was a hoot, Ken Tucker at Entertainment Weekly called MacFarlane “smug” and “condescending,” but added that he’s excited to see him cause commotion during the show, and wrote, “It may be one for the ages.”
