The Tubeys

Much as I give the TWOP staff crap for self-importance and misinterpreting interest in their recaps as interest in themselves as people, they often do know what they're talking about. Witness the staff picks of the Tubey awards, which I think they got moreso than the reader picks in most categories. A lot of love for Arrested Development (which makes me laugh aloud during reruns -- "Loose seal! Loose seal!") and Battlestar Galactica. No Veronica Mars love, as opposed to the readers' reactions. I'm still warming up to VM (not having a UPN affiliate here), so I have less of a fervent response to it than I do to the last 47K humans in the galaxy.

But considering this was both BSG's and VM's rookie seasons, and they're both about as different as one-hour prime-time dramas can be (I wonder idly if there's a crossover fic, but no, suddenly I realize I don't want to know) I'm happy that they're both coming back. Nothing I love got cancelled. For a change.

And AD's Franklin won (okay, tied) for Best Inanimate Object. Sweet.

Edit: I have just amused myself to no end by imagining switching the opening themes of BSG/VM. I think BSG would be a bit more peppy with the Dandy Warhols' "We Used to be Friends" playing over the march of the toasters.
