Thanks for the new thread!

Why is that with Lyla & Tyra, coming back so late or seldomly?

**colorful_dust** · 09-13-2009, 04:00 PM

It's sad, but they're graduating and moving on.

You're welcome.

The premiere needs to get here, like now.

I know. It's still too far away.

**colorful_dust** · 09-15-2009, 08:46 PM

It is.

Don't they know how impatient we are?

***Enigma*** · 09-16-2009, 10:10 AM

Apparently not.

**colorful_dust** · 09-16-2009, 06:37 PM

Someone should inform them.

*****

Also, the results of the EW Magazine EWwy Awards

For best actress, Connie came in 3rd place...

Quote:

Best Actress in a Drama
Emily Deschanel, Bones
Almost only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades, but don't tell that to BSG's Mary McDonnell, who lost the Golden Ewe to Bones' Emily Deschanel by a single vote from the tens of thousands cast in the category. While you let that sink in, we'll review the third- through sixth-place finishers among EWwy voters: Friday Night Lights' Connie Britton, Gossip Girl's Leighton Meester, Mad Men's January Jones, and Southland's Regina King.

For best actor, Kyle came in 2nd place...

Quote:

Best Actor in a Drama
Josh Holloway, Lost
His wayward Sawyer emerged as a responsible leader on Lost's fifth season, and at the same time, Josh Holloway emerged as the MVP leading man of the show's expansive cast. For his efforts, you handed him an EWwy, with 33 percent of the votes, more than enough to hold off Friday Night Lights' Kyle Chandler (22 percent). They were trailed (in descending order) by: Michael Chiklis (The Shield), Denis Leary (Rescue Me), William Petersen (CSI), and Scott Grimes (ER).

For best drama, FNL came in 3rd place...

Quote:

Best Drama Series
True Blood
Fangbangers, rejoice! Your favorite show sucked the blood out of the competition, winning 32 percent of the vote to take home the EWwy. The vanquished included: Battlestar Galactica (23%), Friday Night Lights (18%), Burn Notice (12%), Rescue Me (8%), and The Shield (7%).
