Getting Seth MacFarlane, the man behind one of the most popular AND hated shows on US television, to host the 85th Annual Academy Awards was always going to be divisive. Now it's the morning after the night before, the world is giving its verdict, and the response is rather mixed. Like we said, people either love or hate MacFarlane. So here goes...

WARNING: If you want to watch him spoiler free tonight, then we suggest you look away now!

We have to say, we LOVED MacFarlane's opening, particularly his jab at the Academy for their failure to give a nod to Ben Affleck for his directing skills. "The story is so top secret that the film's director is unknown to the Academy" MacFarlane said, to raucous applause. "They know they screwed up." He threw in a few jibes about last year's Best Actor winner Jean Dujardin, described Django Unchained as Chris Brown and Rihanna's answer to a date movie and said Jennifer Lawrence was just relieved that Meryl Streep wasn't nominated. Before he could go any further, William Shatner dropped by and things went a little up in the air, if we do say so ourselves...

MacFarlane kept the jokes coming throughout the night, to a rather mixed reaction on the Twitter machine. His little ditty about Abraham Lincoln didn't go down too well at all: "I'd argue that the actor who really got inside Lincoln's head was John Wilkes Booth" MacFarlane smiled. The audience booed. Twitter erupted, and MacFarlane brushed it off. "150 years later and it's still too soon?" he asked. Oh Seth, we love you, and we loved it, but you kinda should know better than to mess with a rather patriotic bunch.

Overall though, we thought he was quite a decent Oscars host. He sang (even if it was about boobs... the girls were more than up for the laugh, their reactions were pre-recorded, note the different outfits), he danced (with Daniel Radcliffe and Joseph Gordon-Levitt no less) and even closed the show with a magical duet, but that just wasn't enough for some people in Hollywood. 'Is Seth MacFarlane the worst Oscars host ever?' one blogger asked. (Must have missed that Hathaway/Franco debacle so). Insiders at Deadline and The Wrap blasted his efforts and the LA Daily News said nobody outside the Dolby Theatre would get his jokes. We got them, but sure each to their own!

We thought he was deadly, even if he did stray a little too close to the line at times. How about you?
