Second Annual Poolie Awards- Ballots Released

Yes it is finally that time of year. Sadly the 2009-10 television season has come to a close, but here at The Quiet Pool Perspective there is something to look forward to. This weekend the ballots for the Second Annual Quiet Pool Television Awards will be released. Just as I write about what I liked and disliked about what was on tv during the year, the Poolie Awards are all about voting on what you liked or disliked this year on television. As you know, there are no silly categories like best actor or actress. We are all about the characters here at The Pool. I could care less if you're doing well at your job, it's whether or not I'm entertained by you.

In this second year of the esteemed awards, we have both new voters and new categories. Joining originals myself, Bonz, Jack, Jaydon, Larry, Mags and T-time will be Casey, Rizzo, Tyson and maybe one more. A list of all the categories, including seven brand new awards are listed below...
