Busting Bikinis and the Cop Who Wants to Fine Cursing! (Nanny of the Year 2012)

|

Kick off awards season with the only show that shines the spotlight on those who make it their business to mind your business. Live (to tape) from Hollywood, it's the fourth annual Nanny of the Year Awards!

Who will claim the Nanny this year? Might it be the Arizona pol who's cracking down on advertisers who photoshop models to make them more attractive? (We assume she's preparing campaigns against other deceptions like makeup and lighting.) How about that New Jersey crusader who's itching to bust bikinis? Or thepolice chief from Massachusetts who refused to let obstacles like the First Amendment deter him from championing an ordinance that fines folks for public profanity?

The Nannies have been as male-dominated as the Academy Award for best director, but for the first time in history most of the nominees are women! Will this be the the year that Nanny gold finally ends up in a woman's hands?

A little over two minutes. (If only all awards shows were that quick!)

"Nanny of the Year," is written and produced by Ted Balaker, who also hosts. Shot by Paul Detrick and Alex Manning. Motion graphics by Austin Bragg.

Correction: Ted Balaker should have referenced the Sylvester Stallone epic Demolition Man rather than the Sylvester Stallone epic Judge Dredd. We regret the error and Balaker has already been sentenced to watch the Sylvester Stallone epic Spy Kids 3D: Game Over by a just and angry god.
