I have grown accustomed to reviewing television here at the Quiet Pool Perspective as of late, but my first love in regards to tv has always been ranking, voting and listing. So as we get closer to the Third Annual Quiet Pool Television Awards, we will continue to take a look at how things are shaping up. With some of our favorites gone, and plenty of new competition, the 2010 Poolies should once again be quite the event. As always, I'm looking for input from both Poolie voters and non-voters in order to make the nomination process of a more democratic nature. Sound off in the comments, email me at d4cella@gmail.com or hit me on twitter @quietpool.We are beginning with the drama categories, and why not start with the Dynasty Award for Best Drama Series.

What and who do you like fellow Poolies?
Couple thoughts, someone from treme will get an expanded role and earn a nomination, possibly either Delmond, Ladonna or Saracen's mom.
ReplyDeleteWhile Kevin was the better Lucas in season 1, I think Joe is more deserving this year. And Vanessa should not be nominated for worst character, maybe best female character.
Completely agree with the Treme sentiment. All three of them are on my radar, but with only a few episodes from season one in this year's Poolies, we'll have to wait to see what happens in season two.
ReplyDeleteMy answer to the Jonas stuff is part positive part negative. I can completely agree with Joe being better than Kevin this year, especially with Kev's more limited role. But Vanessa Page? She is the worst and no one is convincing me otherwise.
I think a category reshuffling might be in order. Glee and Gossip Girl shouldn't really compete with Mad Men and Treme.
ReplyDeleteI think the last ep of Glee was good enough for a best ep nom.
All the way to Vanessa Abrams. My favourite actress. Gossip girl rocks.
