    I never really pay attention to the Critics Choice Awards but it's one of the few awards show un-affected by the writer's strike. So...it should be interesting.

    It airs TONIGHT at 9pm on VH1.

    I will flick between this, because wrestling comes on tonight, too. :o

    Why couldn't this come on tomorrow?

    Someone needs to tell D.L. that he's not funny.

    Nice to see JUNO win Best Comedy. It deserves it.

    But there's no way in hell that HAIRSPRAY deserved Best Acting Ensemble.

    Yea...I guess. I saw it on Sunday. Really, really good movie but I liked Knocked Up and Superbad a lot more. :o

    It had Chris Walken so it automatically won.

    I feel like JUNO is a better film than either of those movies. Not necessarily funnier, but far more impressive.

    Yeah, it's not particularly interesting. I only have it on in the background.

    Yeah, not a very good show. But Jonny Greenwood won for There Will Be Blood. That's an awesome soundtrack.

    All the ones you just named are now snooze-fests. I think they should just announce who wins what for the big shows, and skip the boring ceremony and the awkward speeches.
