**I can't think of any current TV shows worthy of any award. **

My young friend, :blind: I'd like to introduce you to my two best friends Game of Thrones and Westworld.

If you're up for a little group action might I suggest Arrow, The Flash, Gotham, Supergirl (only season 2), and Legends of Tomorrow.

Or, if you'd like to see a real man in action take on Daredevil Seasons one and two.

I could go on.

Debbie and Carrie did have their moment – placed together, of course -- during this week's Emmys roll-call of In Memoriam.   :blownose:

Emmy Awards are about television shows.  To my recollection, Debbie Reynolds was a big star of movies and stage productions.  Carrie Fisher was a big star of movies.  But neither had anything to do with television. 
It has always bothered me that awards shows exploit the deaths of celebrities for ratings.  It's even more disgusting when some celebrities only get a tiny bit of applause while other's get roars of applause and cheers - as if they are being "graded".

I can't think of any current TV shows worthy of any award.

I'm surprised they could find time to do the memorial or give out the awards in between making attacks on President Trump. 
If I was receiving an award, I would be highly pissed off that time was spent on people's political rants.
If I was the one producing the awards show, I would warn the presenters that if they abused the forum to present their own political views, they would be banned from all future award shows.

RIP 

I know in my heart that Debbie forgives the nine-month delay in expressing your condolences, and that she would honor your memory in a similar fashion if there was a SeedPoint up for grabs.   :crazy2:

Could this year get any worse?  :cry2: :cry2: :cry2: :cry2: :afr2:

Well, we still have 3 days….

There can be a LOT of surprises ....

Could this year get any worse?  :cry2: :cry2: :cry2: :cry2: :afr2:

First, the musicians…now the actors (of iconic films)... a dark year for the Arts as a whole.
