@@freefoodchef7939 I thought so too.. but as you go further down... the freshest comments .. they were negative as in .. unimpressed. It seems like positive comments came in later .. and dominate the top half.

​@@donofon1014You're right. I just saw that. I like Jost on SNL, and I know he's head writer there, or something like that, but this was just off -- well, at least for a lot of us, I now see. I wish I understood why a lot of other people thought it was great. I wonder how he thought it went ...

As a sound guy, it always bothers me that don’t hang any (or enough) crowd microphones when producing this event. You only pick up the audience reactions from the host mic, and it just makes the event sound rather dead, or that the host isn’t getting any laughs. Yeah, I know it’s not a comedy special, but Colin was getting a much more positive response than it sounds like here. And every year, for that matter.

I used to do hotel AV conference tech setups for a national company 35+ years ago. Placing microphones on the ceiling was a very expensive option. Then the fancier hotel conference rooms started installing speakers and microphones in the walls and ceilings in discreet housings matching the decor. You still have to rent that system, and amplifiers, mixers, etc. The cost of the equipment, tech, and final recording copies even back then was pretty significant cost. I'm guessing they opted to focus on the speech content and keeping costs down. But you're not wrong.

Good take on the room acoustics. I don’t think anyone in the room wants to be caught on a “hot mic.” Although, I would have laughed at Lara Trump’s comments on all the trump jokes. She made a video of herself twirling around her hotel room, thinking this dinner was at MarALargo. Scarlet’s husband did a great job, I’m sure Doug would agree.
