It looks like it's one and done at the Oscars for Seth MacFarlane. The "Family Guy" creator was asked on his Twitter account whether he'd consider hosting the Academy Awards again and he replied: "No way. Lotta fun to have done it, though."

You think the Academy Awards are boring? Try the nominations. They only last a few minutes, but it's generally a sleepy academy suit and a sleepy starlet droning a list of names at 5:30 in the morning....

For the first time in 40 years, the host of the Academy Awards will help announce the Oscar nominations....

He's voiced an animated numbskull, a talking dog, a homicidal baby, and a stoned teddy bear -- and now Seth MacFarlane is going to emcee the Academy Awards. The Academy broke the news today on its website, revealing that they're "thrilled" to have him on board to host.

"Family Guy" creator Seth MacFarlane says being invited to host the 2013 Academy Awards "was the greatest call that I could have gotten in show business." Oscar telecast producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron announced Monday that MacFarlane will host the 85th annual Academy Awards ceremony in February.
