Things I Learned From the People's Choice Awards 2018
by Aaron Shurtleff on November 12, 2018
Just looking over the results, and I saw a few things that I wanted to comment/ask about. Feel free to clarify and/or put in your new revelations! :)
1) What the heck is Shadowhunters: The Mortal Instruments and why am I just hearing about this??
2) Orange is the New Black is a comedy?? Did something change (as I haven't watched an episode recently), or is that considered comedy? Serious question.

1) It's another Harry Potter wannabe about a teen who discovers a secret magic underworld and must join a fight. At least it's not about a dystopia and/or a persecution of teens; we have enough of those.
2) Studios can choose the categories when they submit their shows for nomination, and thus game the system. It's been controversial for a while, in part because so many shows these days blur the line between comedy and drama. OITNB switches gears between them pretty often, but (imho) it has become more of a drama in its latter years.

I really shouldn't try to write this late, since it messes up the date protocol. But, since the whole protocol was fairly arbitrary, and I made it up to boot, I guess we won't dwell on that. :) Golly! Go »22-XII-2008 or I am dumb.
Funny story (only it's not)! My wife was running in a 5K race for the inaugural magicjack.com Saint Petersburg Bowl (I love those corporate tie-ins!), Go »26-VI-2019 or NUFFLE!!!
Good day. Am I really going to start doing daily mini-blogs just because my co-workers called me out? Apparently. Go »2-X-2008 or Oh, YEAH!
That's why I stopped playing the Devil in Rock Block! I knew there was some reason... Go »
