Fulfilling Obligations
Yes, I’ve finally made it. I voted in about 95% of all this year’s Tubey’s Awards at TWOP. The only categories I left out were those two or three where I had absolutely no clue about. Hell, I even voted for Best Mini-Series or TV-Movie just based on which trailer I liked most. It’s not like I’ve actually seen any of the nominees.
Basically I gave out all the good votes to Veronica Mars and Arrested Development with a few exceptions that went to Joan of Arcadia, Smallville (Best Bad Ass, come on…) and House. Most of the „bad “ votes went to Charmed, which I hated for most of its seventh season, so I seized the chance to put all the anger I have for this show and especially Phoebe out in the open. So, why did I keep on watching this show? I have no friggin‘ idea. And why will I watch the 8th season, even if it means screaming at my TV and/or rolling on the floor in pain because it just physically hurts to watch this show? I don’t have a single clue?
Guess that’s what addicted really means. Part of the attraction surely is that I can’t wait to find out how the hell they will maneuver themselves out of last season’s finale. Another reason might be that there’s always a very slim chance that this week’s episode won’t completely suck and make myself frown at every dialogue. And, of course, I am honestly looking forward on how they will end this show. I bet it will be classy, great and breathtaking. Not.
But there was even a good vote I gave to Charmed, category being Most Redemptive Character in an Otherwise Sucky Show from the 2004-2005 Season . Since Charmed is the only sucky show I watched last season, I had to choose a Charmed character. And since the only ones they would offer me was Phoebe (you gotta be kidding me, guys!), Piper, Leo and Chris (if I didn’t overlook something), I had no choice but to vote for Chris. Sure, he’s like a few months old, but he really was one of the few characters and the only one I could vote for that didn’t piss me off one time or another.
And now that I’ve proved a worthy TV watcher, I’m anxious to see the results starting next week. You can still vote until tomorrow at 11:59 pm ET. But if you’re not registered yet, you might come to late, because from my experience that takes some time at TWOP.
