Heh, they are totally propaganda and always have been, same with all the awards shows for movies and music. I learned early on that, most the movies they gave a high score for, I had no interest in.. Usually went with Audience score, if I wasn't sure if it was worth a sit through, they were more spot on to what I would actually care to watch. As well, I have never been one to sit around excited about an award show, always disappointing and as far as music, nothing I pref listening to were ever even nominated let alone win something.
