Kor37 9 Posted July 14, 2005 Getting an Emmy for hairstyling cracks me up. "What did you get your Emmy for?" "Oh.....Its because I had a nice haircut!"......... :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt_Picard 0 Posted July 14, 2005 OK... what's 'Lost'? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kor37 9 Posted July 14, 2005 "Lost" was one of the biggest TV hits from last season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sea trooper 0 Posted July 14, 2005 That's great! But going up for hairstyling against Mad TV won't be easy :wink2: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eratosthenes 0 Posted July 15, 2005 So...remind me why they cancelled it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HRH The KING 0 Posted July 15, 2005 So...remind me why they cancelled it? Low ratings. Let's not go nuts. Emmy nominations for hairstyles, prosthetics and stunts doesn't impress that much. Star Trek TV series are often nominated in those catagories. No big deal. (No, I'm not ENT bashing. I would be equally unimpressed if my beloved DS9 was only nominated in those catagories too).

gul_nodrog 2 Posted July 15, 2005 Hair and make-up awards and technological awards are just bones they throw to shows to try and make up for ignoring the writing and acting. It's a crime how they treat television shows that don't fit that "Hollywood" ideal of the flavor of the week. Don't even get me started on how stupid I find that show "Nip/Tuck" .... Star Trek is the whipping boy for the Hollywood elite ... we'll never see them recognizing anything other than the costumes, make-up or special effects. The same type of sci-fi prejudice has been going on since the first Star Wars movie didn't win best picture in 1977 (Annie Hall??? I ask you ....). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It doesn't matter how good Trek is, it's ignored by the Hollywood snobs who are members of these organizations. It was an absolute miracle when TNG was nominated for Best Series back in 1994. I'm still bitter they lost to Picket Fences even though I knew there was no chance in hell of TNG winning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jack_Bauer 1 Posted July 16, 2005 How does Enterprise not get an effects nod? From what I've seen Enterprise's effects are superior or on equal footing to every other series nominated. UPN's only noms come from Enterprise. The irony is delicious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HRH The KING 0 Posted July 16, 2005 How does Enterprise not get an effects nod? From what I've seen Enterprise's effects are superior or on equal footing to every other series nominated. Agreed. Star Trek's special effects are far superior to all other TV shows. UPN's only noms come from Enterprise. The irony is delicious. That was the only decent show they had. Other than WWE SmackDOWN of course, but WWE are ending their Viacom relationship very soon. I've seen the rest of the programming on UPN and honestly it's complete and total crap.

HRH The KING 0 Posted July 17, 2005 There will be a new Star Trek series in about five years. Paramount are planning to rest the television franchise for a while. Though there may be a movie in 2007. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HRH The KING 0 Posted July 17, 2005 Be patient. You've just had eighteen straight years of Star Trek. In a few years you'll be eager for new Star Trek. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
