Canada's SPACE: The Imagination Station reprises the Annual SPACEY Awards for a fourth year of giving homage to some of the best in sci-fi and fantasy entertainment.
"In a sea of television awards shows, the SPACEYS avoids the podiums and boring award dinners, and takes the show around the globe to find the winners wherever they happen to be," explains Paul Gratton, CHUM's vice-president of entertainment specialty channels.
William Shatner accepted a "Lifetime Achievement" gong during the 1st annual awards. Jolene Blalock has earned three SPACEYS: in 2003 as "Favourite TV Hottie," in 2004 as "Fave TV Character, Female" and again in 2005 as "Favourite Female TV Character." Star Trek: Enterprise beamed up "Favourite TV Series," last year, with Scott Bakula accepting the award on behalf of the cast and crew (story with video).
This year, two Trek-alumni productions are up for SPACEYS: Ronald D. Moore's Battlestar Galactica, and The 4400 from Ira Steven Behr and René Echevarria.
Genre fans may vote in seven Viewers Choice categories: Favourite Movie, Favourite TV Show, Favourite TV Ensemble Cast, Favourite New TV Character, Favourite Video Game, Favourite Action Sequence, and Favourite FX.
