John Mulaney MUST host the Oscars next year! In one and a half minutes he got more laughs than Jimmy Kimmel did all night.

[@axelfoley133]

Him presenting an award is like a horse.... loose in a hospital.

[@crushingit5128]

Dude just gave the best 90 second monologue for the whole night without breaking a sweat or staring at a teleprompter.

[@BetterLifeAhead35]

Every presenter you can tell someone else wrote their lines for them. No one could have come up with this but John Mulaney

[@reddy272]

There is not a single extra or wasted word in this entire 90 seconds. It's so perfect, I'm in awe. I can't wait for the day John hosts the Oscars

[@Roebey]

If John Mulaney's next special was purely dedicated to him recapping movies he's seen, I would gladly watch it.

[@81Point2]

John is consistently the funniest person in the room, wherever he is. I hope he keeps showing up to these events. His joke about Angela Bassett getting an Oscar nom for a Marvel movie being equivalent to a reddit comment winning a Pulitzer Prize killed me.

[@dwilliams02]

Between this and his “The Fugitive” bit, I’m convinced I could legit enjoy a series that’s just Mulaney describing movies.

[@UzerKerem]

John is the best argument for being sober

[@artpro5930]

David Letterman might have been talking about John Mulaney when he said "there is no 'off' position for the 'genius' switch." Incredible.

[@r2d2rxr]

Now he should have hosted

[@matthewwasson2906]

The dig at Madame Web was absolutely amazing

[@montananerd8244]

John’s still got it!!!!

[@TheSuperchick05]

“These people are difficult and insane” 🤣🤣🤣

[@brandonfarlow8015]

I never expected a joke about Madame Web to be part of an intro to a category in the Oscars done by John Mulaney. What a time to be alive

[@eclipsicalbluestocking1182]

His comedic timing is impeccable

[@jesusgalactic7043]

He was in the Amazon with my mother when she was researching spiders just before she died

[@vandebunted]

I would pay $50 to hear Mulaney summarize a movie rather than watch the movie itself.

[@mfredrx]

John Mulaney should be given a shot at hosting. As long as he can write it too.

[@mc76]

I might be wrong--I usually am--but I don't think they needed the writers for that bit. That sounds like pure Mulaney.
