Who was Saturday Night Live’s best host this season?

Exclusive: Downton Abbey star Michelle Dockery will lend her voice to an upcoming episode of Family Guy. What would the Dowager Countess say?!

YouTube’s answer to “We Saw Your Boobs”: “We Saw Your Junk.” Sample lyrics:

Kevin Bacon, we saw your junk in Wild Things
Bruce Willis’ junk in Color of the Night
Billy Crudup, we saw your junk in blue in Watchmen
It probably wasn’t yours, but that’s all right

If Seth’s out for next year’s Oscars ceremony, who should host in 2014 — Amy Poehler and Tina Fey, Jimmies Fallon or Kimmel, Jennifer Lawrence and Emma Stone…?

We’ll see about that…

This week in EW: We go behind the scenes of the Academy Awards to see just how the Family Guy and Ted creator intends to pull off the biggest live show of the year.

Meet me on the Twitter / It’s going down.

The instinct is to play to the room, because otherwise the audience there gets really bored and restless. Me with my theater background, I played to the back row of the Kodak, which has 3,500 people. To the people at home, it could come off as a little over-the-top. I’ve never seen it, but I felt like I made a rookie mistake.

Anne Hathaway has some Oscar-hosting advice for Seth MacFarlane — based on her own ill-fated hosting stint in 2011.

The universe is collapsing in on itself: Seth MacFarlane is guesting on The Simpsons! He’ll appear next fall in the series’ 25th season premiere.

In the episode, titled “Dangers on a Train,” Marge mistakes an Ashley Madison-type website for a Dolly Madison-type cupcake site, not realizing that it’s a destination for married people to arrange affairs. While on the site, she encounters the charming Ben (MacFarlane), who pursues her as they bond over their mutual love of a Downton Abbey-ish series, Upton Rectory. “A lot of him trying to go after her is over the phone, so it’s a perfect part for someone with his voice,” says Jean, who adds that the smooth-voiced MacFarlane croons “The Way You Look Tonight” in the episode.

Giggidy-giggidy-d’oh.

Dear God — this man is hosting the Oscars.

Seriously. Seth Macfarlane. Hosting the Academy Awards. Uh… giggity giggity?
