LOS ANGELES - Eddie Izzard has a cure for those awards-season blues amid the seemingly endless string of ceremonies leading up to the Academy Awards.

Izzard - the host of one of the season's final shows, Friday's Spirit Awards honouring independent film - suggests that Hollywood simply add more ceremonies.

The logic is akin to making children caught smoking light up an entire pack of cigarettes one after another, so they'll lose their taste for tobacco.

"There's too many of these things. Either too many or not enough, I think. Maybe another 100. I think they should have compulsory ones, compulsory awards that everyone has to go to. They'll be going, 'Oh, another awards ceremony,' and people are really ticked off when they win another one," British comic Izzard said.
