I read on CC's Facebook page that Venice won for Outstanding Achievement in a Drama series, Theme Music and Crystal Chappell won for Outstanding Achievement as a lead actress - no surprise there. Congratulations to all the winners.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Lena. Wish they'd put out a formal press release. But it's great to see all these shows honored. This type of support means a lot to everyone involved.
