I don’t watch a lot of tv, watch even less movies. But while I don’t watch a ton, I do try and keep up (probably because of social media) to actors, shows somewhat and movies a bit.
Have to say, these awards are my FAVORITE of all the awards shows. Everyone seems so happy to be there. It’s formal but not stuffy.
I LOVE the way they always open it - with actors in the audience telling their story about how they got started - and sometimes failed - and how they are an “actor”.
Tonight, I LOVED seeing Carol Burnett receive the lifetime achievement award. I have such fond and FUNNY memories of watching her variety show growing up. She still looks so good! And on that stage tonight she had me laughing - and crying at the end when she tugged on her ear. <3
It made me sad to think my kids probably don’t know who she is. We watched her show all the time as kids. It was so entertaining. I also like the SAG awards and enjoyed watching tonight.
^^^ Ah, yes. Those were the nights that made being a baby sitter a piece of cake! Put the kids into bed, and settle down on the couch for two hours of real quality TV.
Carol Burnett is one of those rare personalities-- someone you respect as a professional at the top of her profession, but also someone who makes you feel like she’s a close friend, a sister.
