Nothing To See Here, Folks
That's what life's been like the past few days. Nothing other than the same old same old. Watched a few DVDs, read some books, visited the dentist, and dined with my brother and his lovely wife. We did watch the Academy Awards...well, most of it. At 8PM we had to flip over to The Amazing Race to see what happened when the teams made it to Hamburg, Germany. Sauerkraut, bungee jumping and a boot of beer -- that's all I'm saying. No big surprises at the Academy Awards, though. I think much of the mystique and suspense that used to be associated with those golden statuettes disappears once the award season begins. Golden Globes, SAGs, New York Critics, Los Angeles Critics, Independent Spirit Awards, and on and on. The same people win almost every award during the season that it's no longer a surprise.
Are all those shows really necessary? Really?
They should pep things up, maybe have a cage match next year with the 5 nominated Best Actors. Change the tone of the show, maybe attract viewers who wouldn't normally give it a second thought.
But what do I know?

You know a lot. I never watch any of these shows. I'm not exactly Mr. Excitement. After all, I like to watch paint dry on HGTV. :) But I find all these award shows BOR-ING.
I'd watch a cage match! Especially Eric Dane versus Ryan Reynolds in their skivvies.
I don't watch award shows, except the Tony's; and even then I watch it throw my fingers.
