    Heroes better win

    I have a sad feeling Grace Anatomy will win, despite it being a shitty shitty show.

    Lost does not deserve to win this year, it hasn't been that good. too bad.

    I really liked the last six episodes. Juliette is so scary. Like, if I ever saw her in real life, I would never stop running. Jack's little rebellion in episode six is also really cool. I guess it's hard to top the revelation from the season finale 1 though, that

    I can't comment much on Golden Globes because I don't watch TV outside of a few series. I'm kinda surprised that Rome isn't getting any nominations, or is it too far in the past? I watched it on DVD, so.

    The one thing I really enjoyed about Little Miss Sunshine was

    [spoiler:de92492697]the main little girl's show had moves all taken right out of music videos, but because she did it like a little girl would it was less sexually explicit than the theoretically tamer shows by little girls made up to look like glamour models.[/spoiler:de92492697]

    Because it's just the industry's way of patting itself on the back?

    Seriously. It seems that the shows that win all of these aren't the best - as one would generally expect from awards titled "best actor" et. al - but, rather, happen to be the most established, hyped, or the ones with the largest amount of cash behind them. So instead of getting the best shows or movies or actors, we get the established ones with names we all recognize, winning those same goddamned awards over and over again. That's my problem with award shows.

    As someone who works on the argis of the entertainment industry I gotta say this couldn't be more true. All the big studios put millions upon million s of dollars in Pr campaigns to get thierfilms awards that are effectively meaningless.

    oh fuck this, The Wire isnt nominated for best television series. stupid cunts.

    Indeed. The Wire (and specifically, the 4th Season that just aired) rapes every single thing on that list (and probably everything off) with it's pinkie toe. It's just so far and above everything else out there, it's ridiculous.

    And the sad thing is, that's not even a fanboy-ish exaggeration, it just is. As anyone who's watched the whole series is likely to know.

    yup. I can honestly say that this season of The Wire is the single best television show I have ever seen, at least in the Drama category.
