The next step is here. In this third volume of Bright & Shiny: A History of Animation at Award Shows, animation makes its long-overdue return to the Best Picture Oscar(R) race with Up and Toy Story 3. The Annie Awards(R) enter a new era under changing leadership amid a highly publicized boycott. A new Golden Age of television animation arrives at the Emmys(R) with shows such as Avatar: The Last Airbender, Adventure Time, Rick and Morty, and BoJack Horseman. With insight from Tony Angellotti, Ron Dyens, Mike Gabriel, Frank Gladstone, Jorge R. Gutierrez, Mike Hollingsworth, Mindy Johnson, Matīss Kaza, Glen Keane, Peter Lord, Mark Osborne, Bill Plympton, Kristina Reed, Jonas Rivera, Linda Simensky, Benoit Berthe Siward, Rebecca Sugar, Chris Williams, Paul Young, and Marilyn Zornado, among numerous others, the so-called "kids' table" has never been larger.
