There are plenty of stereotypes out there about teenagers. They all hate their parents, are hormone-crazed, make problems out nothing, possess no work ethic and are smoking the marijuana. One of the most notable things, however, is having the attention spans of goldfish. This was obviously very much in the front of organizer's minds for the Teen Choice Awards
Fox has announced the nominees for this year's Teen Choice Awards and between movies, television, music and "other," there are more than 55 categories to shove into a two hour show. Now I'm not a mathematician, but if you take out time for commercials, that's one award announced every minute-and-a-half. To put this into context, if the Academy Awards were to adopt that same pace, you could fit the Oscars into a half-hour time slot. Obviously some categories are going to fall through the cracks, but they may have to hire John Moschitta to read off the nominees and make winners sprint to the podium.
The show will be aired on Monday, August 9th from 8:00-10:00 ET. Check out the nominations in the movie section below and hop over to Television Blend to see the TV nominees.
