frelling_tralk: (SPN Sam and Dean roadside scene)
Firstly and most importantly HUGE CONGRATULATIONS go to the team at Supernatural for winning Best Tv Drama and Best Sci Fi show at the People's Choice Awards yesterday :D




But I was very disappointed not to see Jared and Jensen on the red carpet, and to not see their faces as SPN was announced as the winner (I always love to see the faces of the underdog winning things like these!) And their bodyguard has since said on twitter that the reason for SPN not being represented is that they didn't get an invite, in spite of being nomiated for two pretty big awards. And the show didn't even bother to air the Best Drama results, and the video thanking the fans, as part of the live show. This article sums up a lot of my thoughts on that:

This may have been the first time in PCA history that the network drama accolade wasn't presented live on air -- do we really believe it's a coincidence that a genre show got snubbed?

"genre fans are the reason that "Chuck" has survived for five seasons, that "Firefly" got a chance at a big-screen send-off as "Serenity," and that little-shows-that-could like "Supernatural" and "Community" can enjoy a brief, but satisfying moment in the spotlight on the cover of a publication like TV Guide. We may not have much power, but we still turn out in full force -- with all the bravery of a Stark and all the cunning of a Lannister -- whenever there's a chance to share our passion for a show that brings us joy.

Shame on the People's Choice Awards for deciding that our choice wasn't good enough."
