This is cool.
My show, Top Story! Weekly, has been nominated for two 2012 Inny Awards! These are national awards, so it’s very exciting.
We’ve received nominations for Best in Sketch Comedy (we’re the only show in Los Angeles to be so recognized, and one of only two outside New York and Chicago!) and Best Comedy Song (for “Sad Christmas Songs,” with lyrics by me and music by Gregg Lopez! We’re even nominated in the latter category with Flight of the Conchords!
And other folks in the TS!W family were nominated as well:
– Our home venue, iO West, was nominated for Best Venue and Best Training Program!
– One of our head writers, Matt Manser, was nominated for Best in Stand-Up!
– Bro Squad 5, featuring our writer/segment co-producer Phil Ranta, was nominated for Best in Long Form!
– And one of our writers, Keith Saltojanes, was nominated for Best Instructor, his team English Speaking Moose was nominated for Best in Long Form, and his school ImprovLA was nominated for Best Training Program!
If you could take a moment and vote for us in categories #7 and #11, I’d really appreciate it! Just follow this link!
