Jon Stewart hosted the 80th Annual Academy Awards (his second year in a row) and started off the night mixing jokes about the writers strike, politics, and, of course, the nominees. After his opening monologue, Stewart helped moved the show along fairly quickly with short, and mostly funny, bits between presenters.
