Fugly Awards

[Mythor]

So happy with Daily Show winning the final one. Not that it'll get it on our screens, but I can live in hope.

I think a lot of people must have been judging Hey Hey based on its later years, not the earlier ones when it was still funny to imply Molly was gay?
Shame there's no commentary this time around.

I would have liked to see what else got a vote.

I am very happy to see the tide turning against Daryl Summmers. I don't get him. I have never got him. Maybe it is an Australian thing that my being from the US just isn't meant to get.

Ummm how did Eddie not make it into both these categories??

[Mythor]

Eddie? Maguire? In the award that's named after him? Duh.

[Sllej]

Thanks. Have been and voted. Nice to see that a lot of my nominations made it through.

[junglegirl_1976]

Claire Hooper up for worst female personality! And it has her as Channel 10, not ABC (where I believe she was her most annoying). I think they stopped putting Eddie in every category, because he just kept winning everything.

[Mythor]

The commentating one would more likely be because Eddie doesn't do much commentary anymore? If any?
Claire Hooper as the worst personality is just ridiculous.
