MR. T, RANDALL BOOST TV LAND
TV Land copped 'Best of Show' at the annual PROMAX-BDA
conference in Los Angeles for a promotional spot
featuring a rap by the unlikely duo of Mr. T and Tony
Randall.
Broadcasters and cable networks compete in separate
categories, but the quirky TV Land spot was judged the

annual awards, bestowed Friday night, including nods for
its '31 Days of Oscar' annual campaign and awards for
its Web site.
National Geographic Channel was also a multiple winner
for its marketing materials and promotions.
The cable awards were spread generously across the
industry, from heavyweight Home Box Office and its Six
Feet Under campaign to newly launched G4 for its launch
materials.
Cartoon Network, Comedy Central, The History Channel,
Home & Garden Television, USA Networks Inc., The Movie
Channel, Courtroom Television Network, Sci Fi Channel,
Showtime, Nickelodeon and Fox Sports Networks were among
the multiple winners.
Awards were also won by Texas Cable News, Los Angeles'
Adlink advertising interconnect and interactive
Intertainer Inc., as well as international branches of
Discovery Networks U.S. and Disney Channel.
