Default Destination Animation might be Emmy bound.

Fosters might just get one last piece of glory. Destination Imagination has been nominated for Outstanding animated programming one hour or longer. Good new is it only has one competitor. Bad news is, that competitor is Afro Samurai. Keep your fingers crossed.

Agreed. Like I said, I am a fan, but I'm getting annoyed with it now.

He's talking about The Simpsons (and yes, it is). Foster's has already retired, so it's a little late to be protesting.

Oh, and kudos to DI on the nomination. Fingers crossed.

It is okay Peter, I was talking about the Simpsons. In my humble opinion, Fosters was retired in it's prime. But it is what it is, and I can only hope specials or DVDs from Fosters will follow.

Foster's really does deserve one last moment of glory. Seeing as how many fans of the show there were and still are.
How many Emmy Awards does the show already have? I read once that Foster's was an Emmy winning show but i could never find what for...

"Outstanding Animated Program, One Hour or More" is the big one, though. Winning that one would be the crowning achievement for the series.

The Emmys the show has won are "special juried" Emmys and are outside the jurisdiction of nominations.

To see this series get this Emmy nomination is huge. I definitely want to see this series capture the Emmy for DI.
