Razzies ceremony may be televised next year: Who should host?

brian-dunklemanImage Credit: regg DeGuire/WireImage.comRemember Sandra Bullock’s awesome Razzie speech that found its way online following the ceremony? Well, following popular interest in the moment, The Golden Raspberry Award Foundation is apparently looking into broadcasting its award ceremony on television as early as next year.

“Despite their being known and enjoyed by a worldwide audience in the billions, the Razzie ceremony and variety show has never been broadcast,” the foundation writes on their website. “With awareness of (and interest in) the Razzies at an all-time high, the next logical step in their growth process is an airing of the awards show spoof that has changed the way the world views Hollywood’s biggest bombs.”

Well, I don’t know about you, PopWatchers, but this news makes me want to send a whole fruit basket to the Razzie Foundation. The Razzies ceremony has to be at as fun than the three-hour-plus Oscar ceremony. Montages would be an absolute riot, and lifetime achievement awards would be given out to the likes of Steven Seagal, Dane Cook (at such a ripe young age!), and Tommy Wiseau. Plus, with this year’s Valentine’s Day sure to be a contender, think of how many A-listers might grace the red carpet! But now the question is: Who should be the host of such a ceremony? My pick is Brian Dunkleman. Who’s yours?

  • Robert Love

    Joel McHale

    • Josh

      I change my suggestion below. Yes, definitely Joel McHale.

      • Karina

        agreed! i love joel! and the soup awards basically are the razzies for tv shows/clips

      • GROWING PAINS FAN

        Shouldn’t it be someone who is a really bad actor/actress? – How about kate from LOST?

      • Dave

        Sorry, Growing Pains Fan, but Evangeline Lilly is a great actress. But maybe Kirk Cameron is willing.

      • GROWING PAINS FAN

        @Dave – Oh believe me I will be the first to tell you no one on Growing Pains will win any acting awards, but it is still a fun show. I love LOST, but cannot stand Kate, but you could be right, maybe it is just a poorly written character.

    • Jay

      I was about to go through a list of my own… but then saw this!

      Yes to Joel McHale!!!!!

      (wish I had thought of it)

      • GeeMoney

        I fifth Joel McHale!

    • Celia

      He’s the one and only choice. I’m also loving the Zach Galifianakis suggestion.

  • Josh

    Zach Galifianakis

  • mmex

    Neil Patrick Harris should host everything! (And by hosting, he should merit a lifetime exemption from being nominated!)

  • Matt

    Daniel Day Lewis. Just to add some real shame into the mix.

  • Marianne

    Maybe someone like William Shatner? Someone who could make fun of themselves for being a bad actor?

    • John

      definitely William Shatner!

  • S.O.

    You need a comedian who’ll rip all the nominees a new one. aka: Chris Rock!

    • Nic.

      or Kathy Griffin

      • sascha

        I second that. Kathy Griffin would fit in perfectly.

    • Caitlin

      Chris Rock or Kathy Griffin would be perfect. I also love the idea of Joel McHale.

  • Nerwen Aldarion

    I second the Neal Patrick Harris nomination, I don’t think he is a bad actor (heck no he is awesome!) but I think he would make the Razzies so much fun!

  • Lorie

    Aziz Ansari

  • Anna

    John Stamos.

  • tJhooker

    Kim Kardashian

    • tJhooker

      Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt

      • tJhooker

        Then at the end of the show they would present them with their own Razzie…..and stab them with it

  • Shamus N.

    David Letterman?
    Ted McGinley?

  • MrFord

    I would have to say that my big picks to host would be either Joel McHale or Daniel Tosh. McHale would be perfect, but could you also imagine how much Tosh would rip into these films? It would be amazing!

  • Shamus N.

    Betty White?

  • Shamus N.

    The cast of Mystery Science Theater 3000?

    • Josh

      That just gave me a nerdgasm.

    • S.O.

      off the subject, that’s one show that should Definitely make a comeback.

    • Jonathan

      Excellent Choice!!!!!!

  • Matt

    John Travolta and Forest Whitaker…dressed as the aliens from Battlefield Earth. Or Joel McHale.
