Seasons. Funny thing that. I thought there were only four seasons growing up -- Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall or Autumn. As time has progressed, though, it seems as though, the big "WE" want more seasons.
Certainly, for you "Sporties" in the crowd, there is Football, Basketball, Baseball, Hockey, Soccer and possibly, LaCrosse season (although, being a native Texan, I have no idea when the LaCrosse would be). And for those of use who celebrate such things, there is the Holiday Season. You know, starts somewhere just after All Hallowed's Eve (Halloween, for you youngsters) and ends after the Ball drops in Times Square.
But seeing as how my family and I are enmeshed in the Entertainment Business (No, really, it is a business), we become very aware of all the happy back-slapping that happens in and around Tinsel Town around this time of year (Oh, that would be December through March, I guess). What, with everyone getting in on the act -- the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (The Golden Globes), the National Recording Arts and Sciences, NARAS (the Grammys), the Costume Designers Guild (The CDG Awards), the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (The Emmys), The Producers Guild (The PGA Awards), The Directors Guild (The DGA Awards), the International Animated Film Society, ASIFA Hollywood (The Annie Awards), the Writer's Guild (The WGA Awards), The Visual Effects Society (the VES Awards) and the Screen Actor's Guild (the SAGGIES?) Really? I may have to look into that one.
With all of these shows, you'd think that there was nothing on Television. Well, you can answer that one.
Anyway, the BIG event is on the way, the OSCARS.
Red carpet of red carpets, agree/disagree with them, the Academy Awards is the BIG ONE! It's the one that all the rest are trying to predict, it's the one that has the longest pedigree, it's the one that sits in the middle of the shelf, directly under the spotlight at home, if you're lucky enough to get more than one kind of award.
If you watch or have a party, be sure to look for my wife and I as we walk by. Yes, we got lucky again.
Also, be sure to watch this lovely woman, who will be hosting...
I loved her movie from earlier this year, "Love and Other Drugs." It was fun, funny and insightful, and I hope to be seeing more of her as soon as possible!
See you on the Red Carpet!
