And mind you, I am thrilled to be nominated! Really. It’s an honor.
That being said…. 😉
My shows have been nominated for Emmy awards since 1997 with Blue’s Clues for Outstanding Preschool Series and then again for Blue’s Room and then again for Super Why. Once Blue’s Clues and Super Why! were both nominated at the same time, in the same category…against Sesame Street. And guess who won for the 40th year in a row? And yes, I love Sesame but still…
So, here’s to 2012 giving us our 1st Emmy win! I owe so much to PBS Kids, our fabulous production teams, writing, animation, research and my mom to bring home the win…
But, I do know that it is not what is important. Teaching kids to read through media, teaching them kindergarten readiness skills and having them feel great about themselves is what is important.
But still…
I wouldn’t mind just once, hearing our name read from that freshly opened envelope. I’d take a slow walk up to that podium in a gown that makes me feel like a movie star for the night, determined to deliver my most heartfelt acceptance.
You’re so NOT the Susan Lucci of children’s television. I will have my fingers crossed for you, and I know you will get the honor you deserve soon. Your time will come! Keep doing what you do because your putting smiles on the faces of millions and preparing children for the tons of challenges they will be faced with in the future. Nothing can top that! 🙂
Thanks so much Tiffany. I appreciate your support!

WHAT?!?!?! That is just wrong…you totally deserve an emmy!!! Tough to go up against Sesame Street every year…I love Sesame Street and all but not as much as you and your fabulous programs.
Fingers and toes crossed that 2012 is YOUR year 🙂
Who knows, maybe this is the year! As always, thanks for the support my friend.
