Who’s Honoring Stephen Now? The Producers Guild of America

Hat tip to DB for this one: according to Reuters/Hollywood Reporter, The Colbert Report was just nominated for a *Producers Guild of America Award in the live entertainment/competition category.

The full list of nominees in the live entertainment/competition category reads:

  • The Amazing Race (CBS)
  • American Idol (Fox)
  • The Colbert Report (Comedy Central)
  • Project Runway (Bravo)
  • Real Time With Bill Maher (HBO)

Awards will be given out on February 2nd. The Colbert Report‘s nod is the sole nomination for a Comedy Central show.


* Editor’s note: The Producers Guild of America should not be confused with the “producers” often referred to in the context of the strike. Vance Van Petten, Executive Director for the producers’ guild, issued a statement just this week, noting, “Definitively, the writers are neither negotiating with nor striking the producers. The WGA’s battle is with the studios and networks—the Alliance—not with producers. It’s true, the last ‘P’ in AMPTP stands for ‘producers’. But that designation is a vestige of a time long past, when producers and studios were effectively synonymous.”
