Back in the 50s, NBC, the network carrying the Oscars then, did a prime
time nominations show for a few years and it wasn't a success in either
ratings or artistically.  And I would think that if they were going to do
it in prime time, ABC would rather have a star-studded live show than a
pre-fabricated recorded show, even if the recorded had more stars than the
live show would have.
