The big Bang was the only comedy to be included, all the rest were dramas.

Thanks, Vomar for the news from Variety.  Very cool.  They are showing up on top lists all over the place it seems.  It is nice that the industry realizes the impact of this show on audiences.

Comedy of the year: The Big Bang Theory (CBS)

In comedy, broadcast still holds the top two cards: ABC's modern classic Modern Family and this extravagantly funny crowd-pleaser, which in tone and popular appeal has morphed into a nerd version of Friends. If you have to pick, give the edge this year to Big Bang for the way it has grown its ensemble and deepened its characters. That doesn't mean Modern Family has slipped. It means Big Bang has caught up.

I hate to say it, but I think it's safe to say that this award will probably go to either Arrested Development or Modern Family. Critical darlings almost always get the rewards over more deserving shows, thanks to Hollywood politics.

'Big Bang Theory' Owes Its Success To Classic TV'

by Eric Deggans

"As 2013 ends, many TV critics are filling their best-of lists with unconventional comedies like Netflix's Orange is the New Black. But our critic says his pick is

this year's highest-rated television comedy, rooted in the style of old-school TV classics."

As much as I would like to see Mark Cendrowski win, it would be nice for Anthony Rich to win, as his father, John Rich has won a DGA award.   His father also won several Emmy's, including one while working for Producer Sheldon Leonard, on the Dick van Dyke show.

There weren't many comments on this story, but with a single exception, the ones that were there were the typical snobbish trash-talking that I expect whenever TBBT is discussed. Screw the snobs and the horse they rode in on.

I have no idea if this is the correct thread to post it or if it has been brought up before. So, sorry if it has. I just saw that photo

 

 

and I remember how nobody knew where this is from when we first saw it. I found it on facebook and it had that note ------> (Released in February 2014.)

 

Here's the link https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10152245948065030&set=a.10151313576085030.517671.23519525029&type=1 Does anyone know more about it??

[bigbangsheldon]

its the pic from the secret press conference 

[Chrystalie]

I saw that post too and I made my little research.
I don't know why the facebook page talks about something in February ^^

This picture is coming from "The Big Bang Theory" Press Conference of March 2013. (I found the information here: http://fan-girl.org/2013/11/the-big-bang-theory-press-conference/)

Haaaa Chloe, you're faster than me

That was my first thought too, took them long enough if that is actually so.

Still wonder what the secret was though.

[Maddie]

Kaley looks like she's wearing one of those paper hospital dresses.

She's gorg tho.

I like how they have them in different couplings in that picture. Kaley and Simon, Mayim and Kunal, and Johnny, Jim, Melissa.

[Chiany]

Love how Mayim is leaning against Simon.

Whose hand is on Melissa's arm?

Whose hand is on Melissa's arm?

Jims bend in a weird way???

[rachelshamyfan]

Its either him or johnny

[Chaliceinnana]

Jim, Melissa and Mayim look delighted by life. Johnny and Kunal are trying to look romantic (Johnny succeeds). Simon looks like he wants to welcome you, but needs to guard his genitals. Kayley is channeling the 18 year old daughter of my friend who ruined most of my group wedding pictures by making that face.

[Lady Maca]

That pic is from Comic Con 2012, I think, but I haven't seen that exact one before. You can YouTube videos from the panel, and they are all wearing those exact outfits and hair styles.
