https://owner.roku.com/Account/ChannelCode/?code=IN4DN

You'll need to be signed into your Roku account to add it. Then when the Annies go live, launch the USTREAM channel on your Roku and it should appear under Live Channels. If not, use the search function for annieawards.; Saturday, February 04, 2012 3:27:00 PM

The hosts are invariably funny, and there's much more irreverence and playfulness than at the big-name awards shows. I don't know if it'll be as fun to watch over the internet as it is in person, but I'll give it a shot.; Saturday, February 04, 2012 5:44:00 PM

That was just amazing. Nothing that happens during the Oscars can top that moment in terms of just sheer hilarity.; Saturday, February 04, 2012 9:32:00 PM

Also, is there a reason why the Annies was so disorganized this year? It's kind of a big deal for our industry and you'd think they'd hire people who know how to do this kind of thing...; Saturday, February 04, 2012 10:02:00 PM

I thought the screw ups were fun. Thanks to Patton Oswald for pushing thru what must have been serious flop sweat to right the proceedings.; Saturday, February 04, 2012 10:23:00 PM
Steve Hulett said...: Agreed. The foul ups were hilarious. Be interesting to see if any of the awards tonight point to who wins the Little Gold Man.; Saturday, February 04, 2012 10:59:00 PM
