When The Breakdown gets nominated for an award, Chuck and Katie try to make it about them and not the team or mother.
As the news came down that The Breakdown got nominated for an award, Chuck was excited. as was Katie, and tried to make it about them. With Chuck, he abandoned his crew and hung out with his old, challenging new colleagues, who turned out to be at the end of their broadcasting careers with recent changes. Katie, on the other hand, doesn't want her mother to be her plus one due to the previous times that she embarrassed her (like Kayneing Kayne West at a young talent show).
So Katie tells Carol that she can't come because Greg doesn't want anyone to bring a plus one, but that all changed when Carol signed up to be a fill-in-seat person at the award show. Soon, Katie realized that she wanted her mother with her, and that was when Carol figured out that she was up for the same award for best news show.
Chuck learns he's doing better than his counterpart, so he calls friends in the news business. After watching one get humiliated, he returned to his news team, who happened to be sitting near the bathroom, and apologized to them for his actions and was welcomed back. And even though The Breakdown didn't win the best new show, they sure pulled a Kayne West on the winner, even if they were helping refugees.
"Award Show" was another great half-hour of comedy that brought in a lot of laughs and memorable moments. Briga Heelan and John Michael Higgins steal the episode with such sharp comedy, along with the other cast. The writing was excellent. Overall, I give this episode an 8.5/10.
You can catch Great News on Thursdays at 9:30/8:30 on NBC.
