I'm with Judd Apatow on having a best comedy category at the Oscars. The critcs' choice has a category. The Golden Globes have it, and they always butcher it, so why not the Oscars?
After all, Apatow argued, animated features have been separated into their own category. “It doesn’t seem like it’s screwing up Schindler’s List for Hangover to have its own category,” he said. “Since comedies are rarely up for Oscars, it does make sense to have a comedy category. It would just add more fun categories.”Seth Rogen, while doing press junkets for 50/50, said he forgave Katherine Heigl for her negative comments regarding Knocked Up. No comments on her past few box office flops.
Judd will be recieving a special WGA award.
Kristen Wiig will honor her Bridesmaids producer Judd Apatow with the Herb Sargent Award for Comedy at the Writers Guild of America awards in New York City, the east coast wing of the WGA announced today. The award is named after the veteran TV writer (The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, Saturday Night Live, The Dennis Miller Show) who was president of the WGA, East for 14 years.
