THE CHARACTERS
BEST RECASTAWAY
OVERALL
Charlie Harper, 'Two And A Half Men'
FEMALE
Kate Lethbridge-Stewart, 'Doctor Who'
BEST ADDITION TO AN EXISTING CAST
Megan Draper - 'Mad Men'
She had a small recurring role in last season - whenever the hell that was! - but things had to kick into gear once Don married her. And she has proven to be invaluable, everything that Betty Draper could never be. Megan has provided several of the most memorable moments in this season......
BEST HISTORICAL CHARACTER
CHARACTER MOST DESERVING TO BECOME A REGULAR
Bobby Newport, 'Parks & Recreation'
BEST NEW COMMERCIAL CHARACTER
The Daves, "Dave's World" for Staples
BEST LEAGUE OF THEMSELVES APPEARANCE
DRAMA
Bo Derek, 'Chuck' ("Chuck vs. Bo")
BEST CHARACTER
RETURN
Elizabeth Bishop, 'Fringe'
Dead in Earth Prime-Time and its reboot, but alive "Over There", the wife of Walter and the mother of Peter crossed over to the reboot world to plead for Walter's help in getting the third version of their son back to his Earth Prime-Time. ("The Enemy Of My Enemy")
BEST NEW ALIENS
I don't have a choice this year. Not many choices anymore in Toobworld with many sci-fi shows disappearing. Not even 'Doctor Who' came through on this score - the Kahler were just humanoids with Borg tech on their faces.
BEST NEW ALIEN VILLAIN
BEST NEW VILLAIN
BEST EXIT FOR A CHARACTER
CSI Catherine Willows from 'CSI'
BEST EXIT FOR A LEAGUE OF THEMSELVES MEMBER
Kristen Wiig, 'Saturday Night Live'
BEST "DEATH" SCENE
WORST (GRISLIEST) DEATH SCENE
'Fringe' - "The Enemy Of My Enemy"
The 16 people who died in a hospital wing "Over There" when subjected to a mysterious gas by an ally of Mr. Jones
WORST NEW CHARACTER NAME
OVERALL
Charlie Harper, 'Two And A Half Men'
Choosing Kathy Bates to play Charlie Sheen's former character was brilliant
and was recognized as such with an Emmy Award.
FEMALE
A nice way to keep the heritage of the Brigadier
alive......
MALE
Spartacus, 'Spartacus: Vengeance'
MALE
Spartacus, 'Spartacus: Vengeance'
The fact that the recasting had the blessings of Andy Whitfield before he
died, so that all the people on the crew could stay employed, drives this
choice.
CHILD TO ADULT (OR IN THIS CASE, VICE VERSA)
Leslie Knope, 'Park & Recreation'
BEST NEW SUPPORTING FEMALE
CHARACTER
Ellen Barkin, "The New Normal"
She really knows how to sling the acidic barbs without becoming totally hateful.
We got to see Leslie as a little girl and that little girl showed all the
promise of the grown-up Miss Knope.
Ellen Barkin, "The New Normal"
She really knows how to sling the acidic barbs without becoming totally hateful.
BEST NEW RECURRING MALE CHARACTER
Brian Williams, 'Doctor Who'
Brian Williams, 'Doctor Who'
I can only hope that the exit of Rory Williams from the show doesn't mean
we won't ever see his father again.
BEST ADDITION TO AN EXISTING CAST
Megan Draper - 'Mad Men'
She had a small recurring role in last season - whenever the hell that was! - but things had to kick into gear once Don married her. And she has proven to be invaluable, everything that Betty Draper could never be. Megan has provided several of the most memorable moments in this season......
BEST NEW GUEST APPEARANCE
Will O' The Wisp, 'Lost Girl'
Will O' The Wisp, 'Lost Girl'
Just funny in a grade school way in how he caused explosive
fires......
BEST HISTORICAL CHARACTER
Queen Nefertiti, 'Doctor Who'
What a little vixen!
BEST NEW CHILD CHARACTER
MALE
BEST NEW CHILD CHARACTER
MALE
Jake Bohm, 'Touch'
Maybe there wasn't much for him to do in physical emoting, but he delivered
in the voice-overs.
FEMALE
Shania Clemmons, 'The New Normal'
Awkward but perceptive, she holds her own against so many older and more
experienced actors around her.
CHARACTER MOST DESERVING TO BECOME A REGULAR
Bobby Newport, 'Parks & Recreation'
Not likely to happen, more from a perspective outside the Box, but also
because of the election's outcome. Still, Paul Rudd fit right in to the world of
Pawnee.
BEST NEW COMMERCIAL CHARACTER
The Daves, "Dave's World" for Staples
BEST LEAGUE OF THEMSELVES APPEARANCE
DRAMA
Bo Derek, 'Chuck' ("Chuck vs. Bo")
So evil, yet so good!
COMEDY
James Van Der Beek ('Don't Trust The B In Apartment 23')
James Van Der Beek ('Don't Trust The B In Apartment 23')
BEST LEAGUE OF THEMSELVES APPEARANCE IN SKITLANDIA
Lindsay Lohan, "Scared Straight" sketch, 'Saturday Night Live'
BEST LEAGUE OF THEMSELVES APPEARANCE IN THE TOONIVERSE

The Great Intelligence, 'Doctor Who'
Of course it helps that, even though we never actually "saw" it, the Great
Intelligence was voiced by Sir Ian McKellan! ("The Snowmen")
BEST INTRODUCTION OF A REGULAR CHARACTER
Oswin Oswald, 'Doctor Who'
BEST INTRODUCTION OF A REGULAR CHARACTER
Oswin Oswald, 'Doctor Who'
And that's even though she died at the end! (Screw the spoiler alert - you should have seen it!) I'm not sure how this will play
out, especially now that we've met the late Clara Oswald, and seen her
contemporary counterpart. But I trust in Moffatt.
BEST NEW ALIENS
I don't have a choice this year. Not many choices anymore in Toobworld with many sci-fi shows disappearing. Not even 'Doctor Who' came through on this score - the Kahler were just humanoids with Borg tech on their faces.
BEST NEW ALIEN VILLAIN
The Shakri and its Cubes, 'Doctor Who'
BEST NEW VILLAIN
[TIE]
Sir Richard Carlisle, 'Downton Abbey'
He just needed a mustache to twirl.
Sir Richard Carlisle, 'Downton Abbey'
He just needed a mustache to twirl.
Tommy Voelker, 'The Mentalist'
His payoff will be in 2013, but that chilling final shot of him was the
embodiment of evil.
BEST EXIT FOR A CHARACTER
CSI Catherine Willows from 'CSI'
BEST EXIT FOR A LEAGUE OF THEMSELVES MEMBER
Kristen Wiig, 'Saturday Night Live'
Watching her dance with each of the cast members still chokes me up. (The video that was embedded in that blog post no longer exists. I don't know why NBC would want to hide it away.....)
BEST "DEATH" SCENE
Amy and Rory Williams, 'Doctor Who'
They didn't die, per se, but were sent back in Time by a Weeping Angel, far
enough so that they were dead by contemporary times. So there was something
hopeful in that they got to live out their lives together to a ripe old
age.
SADDEST DEATH SCENE
Dr. Holly Martens, 'Eureka'
Even though they found a way to bring her back to a virtual existence, there was something cold and ruthless in the way she was disconnected from the Matrix.

WORST (GRISLIEST) DEATH SCENE

WORST NEW CHARACTER NAME
Xaro Xhoan Daxo, 'Game Of Thrones' (once again)
I've seen one critic just give up on trying to remember it (or spell it)
and instead called him "Ducksauce".
BEST USE OF A CHARACTER'S NAME
STILL more to come!
BCnU!
