It’s been 10 years since Patricia Arquette’s barnstorming Oscars speech calling for equal pay. She’s ‘sad’ about where things stand now.

Refresh for more. If there’s a holy grail of awards opening monologues, it’s Judd Apatow‘s at the DGA Awards.

In typical fashion, the filmmaker who is known for his killer Bill Cosby impersonation, took the mic for the fifth time to host the DGA Awards — with the opening monologue cut off to the press room. Don’t ask why that is in a post Trump era political environment.

Apatow won over the room with his jokes about how hasty the DGA came to an agreement with the AMPTP, M&As and how Byron Allen could be the ultimate buyer of all media companies, and SAG-AFTRA president as “the voice of reason” during the swamps of the strike.

“My agent said I should hold out for more money, but in the spirt of the DGA, I accepted their first offer!” ribbed the 40-Year Old Virgin director in reference to how fast the guild settled with the studios; in lieu of a strike.

“Today, we’re dedicating our show to Norman Lear,” said Apatow, “He passed away at 101, and I swear to all of you tonight, I will not rest, until I find his killer!”

Being presence at the Beverly Hilton, the home of the Golden Globes, it only served for Apatow to pivot: “I want to thank Jo Koy for lowering the bar for me. I’d like to thank the Directors Guild for having the courage to hire a white Jewish man to host the ceremony. And that is bigger than how we can make Hollywood great again.”

In previous DGA monologues, Apatow has gone for the jugular in deriding Tom Cruise and his association with Scientology to the fallen Harvey Weinstein.

“What Harvey Weinstein ruined was robes,” joked Apatow back in in 2018, “If I wear one now, my wife is like ‘eww’.”
