During the Academy Awards on Sunday night, British actor Jason Isaacs brought his signature humor and candidness to the ITV coverage of the event. Joined by Mariella Frostrup and Elle Osili-Wood, the 61-year-old actor quickly stirred things up with his opinions on award shows.

When asked about his thoughts on how host Conan O'Brien should handle the show, Isaacs did not hold back. "Oh, respecting what? A bunch of celebrities sitting in a room?" he exclaimed. He went on to explain his dislike for award shows, stating that they are simply TV shows with decreasing viewership each year. Instead of the typical thank you speeches, Isaacs suggested that stars use their time to tell a funny story or make a bold statement.

Naturally, Isaacs' unfiltered remarks caused quite a stir on social media, with many viewers praising his honesty and humor. Some even joked that he hadn't said anything positive about the Oscars, but they couldn't fault his remarks.

The ITV panel continued to entertain viewers throughout the evening, with Isaacs making quips and observations about the event. But as the night progressed, it was time to announce the winners. Among the winners were Kieran Culkin for Best Supporting Actor in "A Real Pain" and Zoe Saldaña for Best Supporting Actress in "Emilia Pérez." Sean Baker won for Best Original Screenplay for "Anora" while Peter Straughan took home the award for Best Adapted Screenplay for "Conclave."

The team behind "Anora" also won for Best Editing, while "Wicked" received awards for Best Production Design and Best Costume Design. "The Substance" took home the award for Best Makeup and Hairstyling, and "El Mal" won for Best Original Song. In the animated categories, "Flow" won for Best Animated Feature, and "In the Shadow of the Cypress" took home the award for Best Animated Short. The award for Best Documentary Feature went to "No Other Land," while "The Only Girl in the Orchestra" won for Best Documentary Short.

Before the ceremony ended, Isaacs joked about his busy schedule, quipping that he now has a black belt in karate and is a licensed neurosurgeon. He also expressed his excitement for saying yes to things he never would have before.

Overall, the Oscars were a night filled with laughter, drama, and memorable moments, thanks in part to the entertaining commentary of Jason Isaacs. And if anyone can get away with poking fun at the rich and famous, it's definitely him.
