Ellen Degeneres will be back for the second time as Oscar host next year, having done it once before in 2007. This screams to me they were looking for a "safe" host, after all the controversy Seth MacFarlane brought last time (although he did what they wanted him to do, boost their ratings in that target "young men" demo). But at least she's funny. The 2014 Oscars are set to take place March 2 on ABC.
