KenKritique's Emmy Nominations Prediction/Wish-list

Fellow TV Enthusiasts,


Emmy Nominations for the awards that matter i.e Drama and Comedy will be announced this Thursday. So I figured it would be fun to predict who I thought would be nominated and who would win.. The award show itself is sometime in September, but will have updated you before then. I had wanted to create a wish-list as well, however I figured it would be too biased as I don't watch all shows that are worthy of emmys.. in fact my list will include big hitters in some genres like Downton Abbey and Boardwalk Empire simply because I don't watch them, and I can't wish something to be on the list that I do not watch!!

Anyway, I'll try to make it part realistic(what I expect to be nominated, whether deserving or not) and what I would WANT to be Nominated. I will say, For all the winners.. I will select 2(Who I want to Win and Who I expect to Win).. sometimes it will overlap :-)!!

There you have it Folks.. A little bit of what I think will and what I think should happen!! Agree or Disagree?? Any Comments?? Additions?? Let me know...

It's a Hospital For Children!!

Hey Friends,


Hope you aren't weeping too much at the lack of regular network programming.. I miss my regular shows too, though summer does bring some good things- you know besides SUITS and WHITE COLLAR; it gives us the opportunity to try out shows that you've heard about but never really gotten around too, hence my post today!!

Back in 2010, I had heard about the Show CHILDREN's HOSPITAL and was rather interested in the concept and had always vowed I'd give it a shot, well 2 years later I have finally come around to it, and I must say I'm really rather quite enjoying it.. It's the perfect thing if you are looking to take a 10 minute break to have a few laughs whilst at work or in the library for those of you still @ University!!


The show airs on adult swim, and my history with the channel is rather brief.. rather than watching a few of the Family Guy variations of episodes which would show some scenes that FOX wouldn't allow; the only other show I really used to follow was Frisky Dingo- which was created by Mastermind ADAM REED- You know, the guy who created "Archer"!! 

Anyway, Children's Hospital is a parady show, like 5 minute episodes of different parodies like Scrubs NCIS, but takes it to a level beyond what one would expect. Simply put: It is so DAMN RIDICULOUS, that it is actually FUNNY!!! I mean, sometimes the wit and jokes come by so fast, you don't even have time to laugh at the previous Jest! Even if I've only watched the first season; I can tell that I will enjoy the rest of the series.

My Recommendation: TRY IT: You May not Love it, but Odds are you'll Like it!!
