Well, looks like I’m not much at making predictions, just a few days after writing that the writers are prolonging their strike by negotiating to write for certain event broadcasts, it gets announced that the writers and studios are getting close to an agreement. Here’s hoping they get to it soon, so that the next season of Eureka isn’t held up too long. As for my ability to read what is going on in Hollywood, I don’t hold much stock in the Oscar predictions I made last week.

Like everyone else I have decided to put on my Carnak the Magnificent turban and give a shot at predicting who the big winners will be come Oscar night. Most of these picks will be “Well Duh!” choices but I’m trying to be realistic. I’m also not going to go down through all the Oscar categories, but will be hitting the main ones. So here goes.
