Music today is garbage. The "Best Group of the Year" is usually never around for a second album. It's been like that for nearly twenty years running.

With Chris Rock as the emcee, the Academy awards are headed for the toilet. Rock, a butt kissing Bill Clinton lover is just a low life, gutter snipe. Add to that, the Mel Gibson epic film "The Passion of the Christ" was passed over by the "Hollywood" elites for major awards and you have the making of a bad night for Hollywood. Maybe these idiots will one day learn to keep their politics to themselves, but I doubt we will ever see that day!!!

I'm wondering if there are so many awards shows that they have lost some of their specialness

Ya think?

"I'm wondering if there are so many awards shows that they have lost some of their specialness,"

I'm sure that former viewers who are fed up with the elitists anti-american arrogance, the lack of talent, and the absence of humility and class amongst the presenters, performers, and recipients has absolutely nothing to do with it.

How conveniently ignorant.

I hope this is a preview of the Oscars. This is what Hollywood deserves for the nominations for 2005.

Personally, I am boycotting because they just aren't using the most modern genres in their various award categories. Come on, best drama, best comedy, best foreign language film?

These genres have been replaced. Let's have more honest award categories: best euthanasia film, best abortion promoting film, best film promoting pedophilia, best conservative-bashing film - things like that.

I think the c-RAP element in music has ruined it and people show they aren't THAT interested in watching them get their bowling trophies.

Trying to get back on topic, the remark from the article says it all:

ABC is also much more competitive. "Desperate Housewives" had more viewers than the Grammys in the same time slot on Sunday, Nielsen said. But there was little evidence that many people switched over to the Grammys when "Desperate Housewives" was done.

People forget Desperate Housewives is one of the highest-rated shows all season. It's a situation akin to a couple of years ago when the Oscar ceremonies co-incided with a new first-run episode of HBO's The Sopranos.
