Emmy Disscussion - Never Forgotten: a Foster's Home Community

The whole "paying respect to legendary still-running shows" belief held by the Emmys is absolute garbage. The Simpsons have long been ingrained as a permanent staple of pop culture history--IT DOES NOT NEED ANY MORE AWARDS. I wouldn't be so angered if it went to Family Guy, since it was fresh from it's comeback year after much struggling by it's fans, and I believe it's yet to win this category.

Quite frankly, I'm not so optimistic Foster's will ever win this award. It looks like mainstream attention has turned to adult-oriented cartoons(Just look at this year's Teen Choice Awards--ALL the cartoons nominated were adult oriented), which is unfortunate to me at least, because it seems most adult cartoons seem more concerned with zany pop-culture references and blatantly controversial episodes than telling stories with actual heart.
