The TV Zone

OK, who stuffed the ballot box? Muppet-related shows took home three TV DVD Awards this week. I love the furry fellas, too, but come on.

There are plenty of debates to be had over which sets won the prizes announced at Monday’s Hollywood soiree presented by Home Media Magaine. After judges determined the nominees, consumers voted online for their faves. The Best of Show prize went back to the judges, who honored the “Get Smart” complete series set -- rightly, since it was loaded with extras and packaged in a box that evoked the ’60s sitcom’s door-slamming montage.
