People's Choice: One Down, 83 More Awards Shows To Go
Declaring "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" "Life with the dull bits cut out" (citing Alfred Hitchcock -- though the show is really more lurid behavior with all the real-life bits cut out), Donald Sutherland wrapped up the evening. (Too bad the People's Choice Awards didn't have the dull bits cut out.) William Petersen called people liking his show "a very special gift," which apparently so disgusted the orchestra's conductor that he for the first time this evening interrupted an acceptance speech.
And here's a shocker: A post-show disclaimer confessed, "The favorites were notified in advance."

Sucks that the show producers let George Lopez ramble on pointlessly and let Ray Romano and Brad Garrett reprise their tired schtick for an extremely long thank you speech, but cut off the eloquent, compelling and - yes - phenomenally hot Billy Petersen during the thank you's for best drama, in the anchor spot. Hey, the last award spot is traditionally reserved for the "best" or "most important" awards of the show...so what the heck is up with cutting them off in favor of that other earlier dreck!?! *sigh*
