OT

Including the 2 of you as from what I’ve read you 2 seem to go to the movies most on our thread.

I usually don’t watch the awards shows - don’t care about most of them. I occasionally watch part of some of the Country Music Awards. Haven’t been to the theater to see a movie in some years (used to take my nephew to see some movies). I don’t have Netflix, Amazon, HBO or Showtime (probably not unlike many Americans), so I’ve not seen most of the TV shows and series nominated. Sadly, none of my favorite shows, such as NCIS, NCIS LA and Blue Bloods were not included. Guess I’m out of the loop and somewhat old school as I’ve never heard of most of these actors.

I will admit that I do often watch at least part of the red carpet fashion assessment on the E! channel. Some of the dresses are gorgeous though some are what the heck were they thinking.

Anyway, for those who are curious, here’s info on the Globe Awards for this Sunday. You can open a pdf to see all the nominations.

We cut cable years ago and have Roku and Hulu. Hulu is $7.99 per month and it allow us to watch many of the older sit-coms, ie. Dick Van Dyke Show, Mary Tyler Moore Show, Green Acres, Taxi, Wings, Frazier and much more.

Thank you for the link, SC.

Very kind and thoughtful.

Actually, I don’t go to the movies as much as I would like.

I have only seen “Hacksaw Ridge” of the ones nominated for best picture, it was excellent.

I’d like to see “Lion”, my hubby watched a special on it on TV and it is based on a very touching true story. He said he’d like to see it too.

“La La Land” looks good and so does “Manchester by the Sea”.

Looking at who is nominated, I really can’t say that I would recognize most of them if they knocked on my front door.

Here are perdictions as to who will win, should win and dark horse that I found interesting:
