The Best Award Show on WFMU
« on: January 30, 2008, 02:31:59 PM »
Maybe instead of the lifetime achievement award, Tom can finally give himself a coveted "humorist" award, a la the Mark Twain prize.

There should be a Best (Worst?) Soundboard Award so we can finally figure out whether Mr. T or General Zod would reign supreme.

I am asking all FOTs to suggest both categories and the nominees within. The awards show is going to be spectacular. Get ready and wear something nice for once in your life next Tuesday.

Tom.

What if there was a Best Supercaller category?  That might defeat the purpose of the supercaller status, though.

How about a "person most likely to become supercaller".

or "caller most likely to to be hate pitted"?

Best Recap-maker.

I nominate Omar, and that one drunk girl's cat.
I'm warning you with peace and love.

Best Topic


Oooh, that's a good one. I would second the nomination of Commercials to TV Shows. The Movie Quotes topic was a runaway success, too, in terms of calls, but Commercials to TV Shows was waaay more funny.


What about Best Extended Movie Rant? Juno vs Mr Brooks vs I'm Not There....tight running.
