Award Season In Hollywood
While it's snow season around the rest of the country, here in Hollywood, it's Award Season.
Award Season is the most glamorous time of year in the city of angels, and lots of people even insist the air smells differently here during this time...most likely it's the Jazmine that bloom around now and permeates the city.
The culmination of the Awards Season is always "The Oscars"
The first Academy Awards were held in 1929 at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel and they have been televised since 1953. The show now takes place at The Dolby Theatre at the Hollywood & Highland Center in the heart of Hollywood, which is made over in red carpets and golden statues. The famed Awards are widely considered to be the most important entertainment award there is.
Even though the spotlight might be on glitz and glamour and self-indulgence this time of year, the ripple effects of award shows are far-reaching.
Think about this....for each film or TV show that is nominated, it increases revenues that help the studios, which helps all employees that are related to that studios...which in turn creates more jobs, and more revenue...etc., etc. No doubt about it, award shows bring money to the entertainment community.
So now that we know why they are important, here is a list of the upcoming award shows to look forward to:
The PGA (Producers Guild of America) Awards honors the visionaries who execute the television product. Nominations were announced on January 5 and the winners will be announced at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles, however, the ceremony won't be broadcast.
In its 25th year, the annual Screen Actors Guild Awards is presented by SAG-AFTRA which made its debut in 1995 and is quickly growing to a prized honor. Nominations were announced in December 2018 and for this year, Megan Mulally will host the show that airs at 5pm PST on TNT.

So next time someone says that there are no seasons in Hollywood, let them know that in addition to Pilot Season, Fire/Mudslide Season, and Spring, we also have Award Season.
And next time someone tells you that Award Shows are stupid...set them straight. They bring money to the hard-working people who work in the entertainment community, and that is why we ❤️it. See ya on the red carpet. xoxoxo
