While Oscars 2019 will telecast on February 24, 2019, ABC's Karey Burke told reporters that "The Feb 24 ceremony would highlight the celebrities who present the awards and that there were also plans for "a pretty exciting opening" to the telecast". "Ironically, I have found that the lack of clarity around the Oscars has kept them in the conversation", she contended. "The producers, I think, wisely made a decision to not have the host and just have presenters and let the movies be the stars".
ABC President Karey Burke spoke about the awards show during the ABC executive session at the Winter Television Critics Association Press Tour on Tuesday. Burke is aware of the trend and is looking into it, but she still has faith that the Academy is putting on a show people will want to watch.
The original Bewitched series starred Elizabeth Montgomery as Samantha Stephens, a seemingly normal housewife who is hiding a secret: that she's really a witch with magical powers. "We all got on board with that".
Comedian Kevin Hart in December stepped down from hosting the Oscars after past homophobic tweets resurfaced.

The National Vaccine Information Center, which opposes mandatory vaccination laws, said it opposed that bill and the current one. Local health officials in Hamilton County say as long as people are not getting vaccinated the potential spread is possible.
She added that speculation over the shape of the ceremony was an encouraging sign that the Oscars were still relevant. "This is going to be a big turnout for this".
"I have made the choice to step down from hosting this year's Oscar's.this is because I do not want to be a distraction on a night that should be celebrated by so many incredible talented artists", he tweeted, just two days after being announced as host.
With this new era of reboot television, some might be wondering if one of the most famous modern TV shows, Lost, might be eyed for a revival someday.
Burke also lauded the movie academy's pledge to keep the ceremony to three hours, avoiding the overtime that can drain off viewers.
