Excessively, as it seems to Oscar (3)
I believe the answer is:
too
'excessively' is the definition.
(to too great a degree)
'to oscar' is the wordplay.
'oscar' becomes 'O' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'to'+'o'='TOO'
'as it seems' is the link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for too that I've seen before include "Also; overly" , "Likewise" , "On top - also" , "Unduly" , "What a pity!" .)
