SAG Awards

            Tonight was the night of the 21st annual SAG Award ceremony!  SAG stands for Screen Actors Guild.  It started back in 1995 and it’s basically addressing that acting is a collaborative art and it draws attention to the chemistry you have with your costars.  The winners all did a fantastic job!  There were all sorts of celebrities there from Uzo Aduba, Jared Leto, Emma Stone, and Lupita Nyong. 
            
            One of my favorite TV shows, Modern Family, has been nominated for the past six years for the best comedy series ensemble and won the last four!  I think it’s a really funny and cute show and definitely deserved the win.  I haven’t seen Orange is the New Black, but Modern Family is a family fun show for just about everyone!  Obviously the cast isn’t an ACTUAL family, but they all seem to really get along and treat each other like a family and I find that adorable.  I see Modern Family kind of like the new Office, but in completely different ways.  The Office is a show that will last a lifetime and has been nominated 9 times and has won twice, but that’s only for the SAG’s.  They both are hilarious and can be really relatable.  The Office is more of a mature show than Modern Family.
           
            I only recently started watching the SAG awards back about 2 years ago and I always enjoy them!  I’m one of those people who love watching award shows to see my favorites win (obviously) and I love seeing what everyone’s wearing!  I do admit, sometimes I don’t understand the outfit choices for some people, but either way, I love it!  I wouldn’t say the SAG’s are one of the MAIN award shows, but I kind of like that.  They’re of course important, but I mostly hear about the Golden Globes or the Oscars.
           
            I suppose I never thought of this, but it has come to my attention that there has to be some sort of set of rules or regulations, and as it turns out, there are!  Not everyone can be nominated and there just CAN’T be a category for everyone. 

            
           You can find all sorts of facts and pictures, history about the SAG’s, and see some of the old favorites and winners.  What’s your favorite part about the SAG Awards and favorite winner?
