    Whoop! TV Awards Time - the most wonderful time of the year. I always manage to get some great recommendations for new shows to start watching just be seeing what gets nominated.

    Get those nominations in - your favourites can't win it, if they're not in it!

    Hmmm, been thinking about Nathan For You, which I've already nominated for Best Comedy and Most Underrated Show, and have it in mind for some of the Stage 2 categories, but would anyone else familiar with the show, also class it as a Reality Series and/or a Documentary Series, as technically it is both, or would that be going a push too far?

    If you're not familiar with the show, seriously go watch it, it's amazing.

    Can I suggest Best Foreign-Language category for next year? We've got some strong output recently and it's getting greater recognition through the likes of Netflix. Shows such as: Gomorrah, Dark, Narcos, Occupied, Money Heist, Fauda, etc. Give them a chance to get some recognition as they get lost in the bigger Drama categories, etc.

    Great suggestion ixoy. I have so many on my must watch list that I just haven't had the time to get around to, but some of my favourite shows at the moment are Foreign Language, so great to see it get its own category. Thanks Mr E!

    Terrific work, as always, Mr E!

    Always interesting to see what people have rated highly, as someone who tends to get into shows late these results always give me a steer as to what's worth a look.
