Long time no communication, Planet Nerdsketeers (I blame YOU!). In case you didn’t see the tidal wave of publicity (what, you live in Zurich? That’s no excuse!) Planet Nerd was nominated for “Best Comedy” in the 2008 Antenna Awards.

The Antennas award excellence in community television, which is why we didn’t win. However! It was an honour to be nominated, and muchos congratulationes must go to The Bazura Project for not only winning Best Comedy, but also several other awards including Best Sound and People Whose Skin I Would Most Like To Wear Like A Jacket And Pants. Those guys r0x0rz.

Hopefully our nomination will result in us be showered with opportunities to remake Planet Nerd into something truly award winning – stay tuned!
