I don't understand why 3-4 hosts are required. Maybe because of the size of the venues, and the amount of time it takes to travel to different areas? This could be the only reason?

I think ESC really only needs 1-2 presenters. Of course Sweden understand this, and have hosted with Petra, and then Petra and Mans in 13 and 16.

If you want 1 host you need to make sure that this host is amazing like Petra. You usually want 2 for the dynamics. 3 hosts feel a bit awkward, while if you have 4 hosts you can divide the work more evenly. I find last years 4 hosts pretty good

I have to admit it, I was wrong. I believed that europe would vote upon their own taste, but no. I know many people love the ukrainian song and it was not a bad song. But, to achieve a score this high, it is impossible. This also takes away the credibility of the contest. I am sure that Ukraine would have gotten a very high result anyway, but now, their victory will always be remembered as political. This makes it hard for Kalush to feel proud of themselves. I am also mad about France and Czech Republic. The running order definitely killed czech republic, but France was also robbed. Serbia's result was deserved and I am so proud of the UK. Spain slayed and sweden was of course amazing. I am so happy Portugal got top 10. I am a bit suprised at how low Greece was. The semi results were also suprising
It is clear that political theft is also a matter of pity .. because of the war in Ukraine It is ridiculous and sad ... but it is only a shame of Europe that it declared tonight ..

Some thoughts on the finale:

The hosts yesterday were rather bad. I liked them in the semis but yesterday felt forced and they were nervous.
The show was pretty good but I also liked the semis better.

Audio and camera were MUCH better than before! Someone did their homework…

And you may not believe it but I think the stage and its design (with the lights and waterfall and shape and all that stuff) is one of the best we‘ve ever had! I really like it!

Songwise I can’t say too much. I think a lot of songs that deserve more were at the right (=wrong) site of the board.
