While he is well known for his epic comedic timing, Harris has a tough act to follow: Last year's show, hosted by Ellen DeGeneres, attracted the biggest Oscar viewership in 14 years, according to Variety. Not only that, DeGeneres also set another record that year: posting the most retweeted selfie to date.
Those may be some tough shoes to fill, but if anyone can do it, NPH can. We can't wait to tune in Feb. 22, 2015!
