Cool! Great job Grant, the anticipation of seeing the results was one of the things keeping me going during this uneventful Easter break. Loving those banners, did you make them yourself or get someone else to make them? Kinda disappointing this didn't get too much attention.

My list:

Best TV Animated Show of the Year
Bojack Horseman - Season 4 (Rick and Morty's great, but Bojack is better).

Best TV Limited Series of the Year
Twin Peaks: The Return

Best TV Documentary Series of the Year
The Keepers

Best TV Actor of the Year
Kyle MacLachlan, Twin Peaks

Best TV Supporting Actor of the Year

_ __ _ _ __ _ _ _ __ __ ___ ___

Not much of a TV watcher, but I guessed I'd seen enough to vote. Twin Peaks and The Keepers are great. Bojack Horseman and Black Mirror are my favourite shows, along with It's Always Sunny and Breaking Bad. After seeing this I'm pretty interested in checking out Feud (Season 1), The Night Of, The Confession Tapes and The Vietnam War. I'll probably keep off Mind-Hunter and Stranger Things until I've caught up with the shows I'm currently watching.

How many lists DID you get btw?

Not...not many. I literally got the minimum amount of lists I was hoping for, and I didn't set my expectations very high to begin with. I'm hoping that by next year there will be more interest, so maybe we can get at least 10-15 lists.

Six lists total, by the way (including mine).

Next year try and spread the word with private messages. Maybe write the code for an extremely elaborate announcement post on a new thread a few weeks before the event and when the time comes, just copy and paste it onto the beginning of the thread. That will set a good impression and make people more likely to participate.

The last episode is the most brilliantly disturbing, haunting and simplistic statement on abuse that I’ve seen... well, I think anywhere.

Damn, I never heard of that interpretation before. What makes you think that?

WARNING: spoilers below
It’s totally a 3:00 am thought but, with that last bit at Laura’s house, I got the sense Lynch was turning the audience towards the lingering affects of any kind of abuse (in this case a girl’s murder). Suddenly all the supernatural stuff and Being There style comedy became clear as the dressing they were. It’s what the show (and a good chunk of Lynch’s filmography) had always really been about. In this ideal world of Twin Peaks, a horrible thing happened and the inhabitants came together to try and amend it and, sure, they eventually found some truths behind the acts, the motives and the perpetrators, and even beat them as a group but something broke nevertheless.

We can move miles away from this moment, become different people in different times but that single moment lives on. It’s a disembodied voice screaming your name. It all comes crashing back down and it threatens to define you.

I just did it in the same timeframe because I didn't want to push the TV awards for 2017 back to around the summer time of 2018, but yeah...I bet that hurt it some. If I do it next year, I'm thinking I'll start nominations sometime in January and then have the actual awards late Feb. or early March.
