My husband and I have really enjoyed watching the new show Leverage on TNT. It is kind of like Oceans 11 movie on TV every week. It is a fun popcorn type show and I would reccomend it highly. We originally started to watch it because of Gina Bellman who was the hysterical Jane on the BBC version of Coupling. The star of Leverage is Timothy Hutton, or as the ads state, "Academy Award Winner Timithy Hutton".
Now I am a pretty big pop culture junkie, but when I saw the commercial, I could not think of when Timothy Hutton won an Academy Award. I had to check on IMDB, and found that it was for Ordinary People in 1981. I understand that very few actors ever get nominated for, never mind win an Academy Award, but dont you think that after a point you should stop being billed as an "Academy Award Winner" if you have not done anything afterwards that is still Oscar Worthy? After 27 years maybe you should stop being billed as an academy award winner?
Just wondering
