Jim Gaffigan's Oscars Prediction: 'Someone Is Probably Gonna Die Tonight'
Comedian Jim Gaffigan is highly concerned about the Academy Awards show going forward without a host this year.
“No host? That sounds like absolute chaos,” Gaffigan said in his commentary on “CBS Sunday Morning.” “That would be like a horseless carriage! Or an elevator without an operator.”
He went on: “What’s next, a car without a chauffeur? That would be certain death. Someone is probably gonna die tonight, you people! Heck, I’ll watch that. Talk about a national emergency!”
