I'm glad the Writers' Strike has been resolved. Now back to our regularly scheduled programming.
Seriously, the reality shows were getting a little out of hand. It's good for everyone that this strike is settled, and that the writers' are recognized for they're worth.
That said, I'm also glad the strike is over because that means The 80th Annual Academy Awards are a GO!!! Things were hanging in the balance because of the strike. My mentor and friend, Randy Thomas, will, for a SEVENTH time, be the live voiceover announcer for the Academy Awards, along with veteran voiceover artist and past Oscar announcer Tom Kane.
Randy remains the first and only person, male or female, to have announced the Oscars, Tonys and Emmys all in a row.
She's an incredible voiceover talent.
More about the Academy Awards:
The 80th Annual Academy Awards will be held live at the Kodak Theatre on Sunday, February 24th, 2008 on ABC, live at 5pm PST/8pm EST. The Oscar presentation also will be televised live in more than 200 countries worldwide.
More about Randy:
In addition to her network assignments, Randy provides the imaging voice for numerous television and radio stations across the country. She can be heard daily across the nation and around the world, including on Entertainment Tonight and The Insider, the most watched entertainment news programs in the world, produced by CBS/Paramount Television.
Nice topic and by the way you are a great voice talent kiddo!!
Cheers and see you on the boards
