Kwan and Image Awards

Well after I got all but one of my pending submissions processed my score shot up to Level 24 (43%). Accepted: 2272 Denied: 233 Pending: 1 Total: 2506 I was so sad to see Kwan go. I don't know why shee didn't even bother to compete. But I guess since he carrer seems to be over I'll leave it all at bittersweet and wish for her to have a good life. She has so much of it ahead of her. I agree with tv gal. Cress Williams has definetely moved to the top of the pile of people who deserve their own show. I was kinda down on ABC for saying they had 45 million viewers for "It's the End of the World" when every source only says 38 or 39. I haven't been able to find 45 anywhere. (except on ABC) I glad they got an upage in viewers though. And I'm not so surpised they surpassed DH's normal numbers by I was jumpstarted by the ratings that cam in from February 12th. Back to TvForeva: 1. You didn't comment. 2. I don't understand. 3. The habits people develop in high school are habits that they are likely to carry through life. High schoolers are politically aware yet powerless in terms of representation. What does college have to do with it? 4. I'm thinking there does need to be a line of demarcation by why 18 and not 13? 5. The arguement was made and the amendment was ratified. 6. That's what I was wondering. Happy Valentine's Day to you all. I'm encouraging more debate on the topic of lowering the voting age. I'm considering getting the Grey's Anatomy DVD but the special features don't sound like they'll rock my world. I think I'm gonna hold off until the box set of the entire series hit stores (years I know but I have patience). I was wondering why the would release Grey's Anatomy on Valentine's Day, not exactly the perfect Valentine's Day present whether I love it or not, but now I see that sales will shoot up after the ratings in the past two episodes. Something they probably could have seen coming as a post-Super Bowl episode and with it's conclusion and DH lead-in. Genius. Why are there 11 contributors on the top 10 contributors list? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The 37th NAACP Image Awards (Nominations) and my picks for winners: (For those of you unfamilar with the Image Awards I guess the best way to describe the event, PC or not, is like the Primetime Emmys plus the Daytime Emmys plus the Oscars plus the Grammys plus the Pulitzers plus the BET awards plus the MTV VMAs minus most 90% or + white people) Outstanding Comedy Series "The Boondocks" (Cartoon Network) Outstanding Actor in a Comedy Series Tyler James Williams "Everybody Hates Chris" (UPN) Outstanding Actress in a Comedy Series Tracee Ellis Ross "Girlfriends" (UPN) Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series Terry Crews "Everybody Hates Chris" (UPN) Reggie Hayes "Girlfriends" (UPN) Outstaning Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series Kellita Smith "The Bernie Mac Show" (FOX) Outstanding Drama Series "Grey's Anatomy" (ABC) Outstanding Actor in a Drama Series Isaish Washington "Grey's Anatomy" (ABC) Jesse L.
