Neil Patrick Harris better than Woopi as Tony Awards Presenter?


Did anyone catch the 2012 Tony Awards yesterday?

Tony Awards yesterday? I watch them every year and, in my opinion, they just get better in terms of the ceremony (However I think some of the award choices are a bit off)

What do you think to Neil Patrick Harris as the now long running presenter - this was his third year and I think he did a pretty awesome job. Although he is not as famous as Woopi Goldberg (who presented it in 2008)he is always funny and tongue in cheek and I think he brings a more enertaining playfulness to role (although I am sure some wont agree)

So guys, Partick or Woopi for next year?

I love Neil as host (don't even remember Whoopi and I watch every year.) If for some odd reason Harris couldn't do it next year, then the only other choice, IMO, is Hugh Jackman.

Yes, he's much better. I have nothing against Whoopi, but I don't know where she got the idea she was a "comedian"...the woman is just not funny

NPH is the perfect Tony host!

NPH needs to host it every year from now on, just like Ricky Gervais needs to host the Golden Globes Every Year. He's one of the few elements that make the Golden Globes watchable.

I find Whoopie annoying, and if NHP can't host, frankly, I too rather have Hugh Jackman host.

AM I THE ONLY ONE HERE WHO GIVES A S**T ABOUT THE RULES!!

After that incredible opening number in 2013, how can they choose anybody but NPH for as long as he wants the job?
