It’s the end of the month, and that means another awards show! Awards season isn’t slowing down, even when it seems like it’s slowing down. I’ve always been trying to figure out why this particular awards show is my favorite, but I think there’s a simple reason behind that. It’s the shortest and most to the point. No obnoxious host or bad jokes, mainly, and it seems to breeze by quickly. How can you not like that?! Continue reading

‘Tis the Season: “2017 Golden Globe Awards: Winners”

Tonight’s the night! The beginning of the end of awards season. We’ve heard the nominees and hopefully saw a few of them, and now it’s time to crown the winner. Up first, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association’s (HFPA) picks for the best films of 2016!

Awards and top ten lists are everywhere! That could only mean one thing. It’s December and awards season is well under way! What’s not to like about it?

If you’re like me, you’re over the moon about this. If not, well, there’s really no helping you. Continue reading

‘Tis the Season: “2016 Primetime Emmy Awards: Winners”

Award shows come every year, but mostly in a massive wave. You hardly have time to recover from the previous one, or two, when the next batch is upon you. It’s what makes awards season so exciting, especially as it honors film, but it’s also tiring. So much to keep track of and watch, how does one have time for anything else? So, when it does happen, that you have a lone awards show going on, it’s best to just enjoy the moment. It’ll be the last time you watch a ceremony and are completely relaxed. Continue reading
