Did anyone else watch this? (My wife was watching it, and I actually thought it was one of the more entertaining awards shows.)

That crappy country group Rascal Flatts that remade Tom Cochran's "Life Is A Highway" won for best song or something. Then the guy got up their and said something along the lines of "We're just glad that Pixar brought us in to do the song, and let us put our creative spin on such a great classic."

Their version sounds almost exactly like the original.

I flipped past it and saw Robin Williams and for some . . . reason . . . stopped. I hate that motherfucker. Elmer Fudd, check. Tired "black" guy accent, check. Gay voice, check. The audience seemed embarrassed for him. The older he gets, the more Micky Rooney-batshit annoying he is going to become.


Stop tolerating this man.

I'm going to let this go. You must have some good in you given the Magic Numbers reference.

I hate this award show. Now I like the majority of the film award shows(Globes, IFC Spirit awards, Oscars) and the Emmy award shows.

But the People Choice Awards is just plain crap. It picks the most mainstream choices and lets the general public vote. Which in my opinion is a bad, bad idea.

Blech.
