Yeah, they had to have thought Boseman would win, and it would end on a big note. Or at the very least that whoever won Best Actress wouldn't just go "K' Bye." As far as I know, the only time since the Oscars has been televised that it did not end on Best Picture, was when Charlie Chaplin got his Honorary Oscar for '71.
Congrats on Advokaiser for winning the 2018 Guru Contest!
