In the news: Leo winners

Ken Eisner of the Georgia Straight runs down BC’s Leo winners:

  • Leaders of the pack, including Douglas Coupland, crowned at Leo Awards
    “Among TV productions, the goodies were also evenly distributed, with Robson Arms (supporting) and Whistler (lead) splitting the acting honours; Haig Sutherland and the ubiquitous Gabrielle Miller were named for the former, and Jesse Moss and Amanda Crew cashed in for the latter. Veteran Janet Wright got the best-performer prize for Corner Gas (which, oddly, was in a separate category from Robson Arms). In the dramatic-series awards, the ambitious miniseries Dragon Boys got nods for screenwriting (Ian Weir) and musical score (Tim McCauley), while super-popular Smallville flew off with top series and director trophies (for James Marshall).”

In the news: BC productions celebrated at Leos

From Playback:

  • Geminis trump Corner Gas at 2007 Leos
    “It might be a little after-the-fact buttering up, but judges handed the best music, comedy or variety program Leo to the 21st Annual Gemini Awards, which was broadcast from Vancouver Nov. 4, 2006, the first time the event has been hosted outside of Toronto. That left local favorite Corner Gas’ tank almost empty, a ‘big surprise’ noted Walter Daroshin, Leo Awards president, during the Saturday night gala at the Westin Bayshore, attended by 400-plus industry people.”
