Which show are you looking forward to?
 
I must say that The Grammys are at the top of my list for a few reasons.

I've always been an American Idol fan. Don't know why....:thumbsup:

But the Grammy's are great too.:p

DrummerDeanna 02-09-2007 10:44 PM

I like all of them but I chose the one I can't wait to see as it is literally around the corner! :)

I can't even remember the last time I watched the Grammys. I used to be such a starfu*ker, I'd watch them ALL and just get so excited at every single camera shot of a celebrity...

My favorite part of those shows is still the random shots of the audience/celebrities....

carrie721 02-09-2007 10:51 PM

i don't watch AI or DWTS. i'm going to watch the academy awards, but i am completely ignorant when it comes to cinema, so i'm not ****ting myself over them. i voted the grammys.

Love to see what everyone is wearing and who shows up in the audience!

I second that.

Especially regarding the Oscars. If I had any respect left for the Academy it would've been lost as soon as they announced Marky Mark's nomination for best supporting actor.

Sorry I didn't give that option to anyone who considers all of them crap. :sorry:

danax6 02-10-2007 08:33 AM

Oscars. :nod: I'm a glutton for those award shows, I always watch the Golden Globes and the Emmy Awards also. They always start at 2 am here and last until 6 am. (Yawn.) But me and my sis always make a night out of it. I have to steal my dad's cable box though, since we don't get E! and ProSieben (German channel that airs the shows) on our regular cable box.

I don't think ProSieben airs the Grammys. I have to check that, I love that show also, but I usually watch clips and pics the day after.

Me too. You get over it when you realize they are just human.

I just picked the Grammy's because my girl Mary J. Blige is gonna take 'em all home.

You go, Mary.

No way girl, Dixie Chicks all the way!

I am so looking forward to the Grammy's this year, simply for the Chicks. They are performing and I'm hoping it will be "Not Ready To Make Nice", since it is up for song and record of the year, that song kicks ass! With everything that unfairly happened to them and then this great album and everything it and that song represents, it would just be so sweet for them to win. The real kicker would be for them to walk away with Country Album of the year :nod: Eat that all you dumb red necks :D

I'm also rooting for Neil Young. He wrote a whole album about war, he even has a song called "Let's Impeach the President", and no uproar over that but the Dixie Chicks should be burned at the stake.

Where the 'all the above' option? :laugh:


I'm a sucker for award shows. Even though they end up boring as ****, they still suck in me.

yep. 18' ceilings. the acoustics are out of this world.

I know you don't write in crummy bathrooms.

estranged4life 02-10-2007 05:05 PM

Hmmm...
 
"None of the above" would be my pick, were it an option.

Edit: I will be looking forward to the Daytona 500 on FOX next Sunday, February 18th

Livia 02-10-2007 05:11 PM

I picked Grammys, but the Oscars are a VERY close 2nd.

All I know is that the Oscar set is kinda lame and the Grammy set is really cool. Me? Unlikely to watch either of course.

Which bit would that be? Joan & Melissa's red carpet coverage and The Police and then you're done? :p

LOL -- you KNOW I'll be watching Joan and her horse daughter. I'll actually switch back and forth to E!...
The first hour of the Grammy's will be good, I am sure. I can DVR Housewives and Brothers & Sisters. But I am SOOO hooked on B&S that, even though its recording, just KNOWING that it's on is gonna make me crazy and I'm gonna have to watch it!
I'm so out of it, though, I had no idea that the Police were playing! SASS!
Who else is scheduled to perform?

rbs

Livia 02-10-2007 08:36 PM

:eek: :eek: :eek: How could you not know about The Police performing? That was the rumour that sparked the leak of the reunion tour. They are opening the show. I wouldn't be surprised if the Housewives and B&S are reruns. The networks tend to do that when they know they're gonna be beat in the ratings anyway....if not, then I think you should record the Grammys while you watch the other shows! I'm really shocked that you're not into 'em, being the huge music fan that you are. :shrug:

***SPOILER ALERT*** (Well, one thing below was news to me - I haven't noticed it being mentioned on any commercials, but I'm excited!)
