Ernie Gilbert wins the Annie!
![]()
Ernie Gilbert won the well deserved 33rd Annual Annie Award for Character Design in Animated Television for the Nickelodeon/Frederator Studios production of Butch Hartman’s The Fairly Oddparents epsiode “The Good Old Days.” Which is nothing compared to the news that he and his wife delivered their fourth son last week. Congratulations to all the Gilberts.
Other big Frederator news: Annie Awards were won by alumni of our various shorts programs: Mike Bell, Seth MacFarlane, Craig McCraken, and Genndy Tartakovsky.
(Geez, we’ve stayed busy over the years.)

That’s terrific! I’m very proud of you. I already was, but you can’t put my pride on your mantle. Do you have a mantle? Oh no! If you don’t, what are you gonna’ do with your Annie!? Oh well, I’m sure you’ll figure it out.
Congratulations!
Love you.

Hooray, Ernie! I’m impressed–but not surprised. What a multi-talented guy you are. Will we still be able to get together and play ukulele? Or perhaps there’ll be too many paparazzi around…

When you married my daughter I thought I might see you on stage as an actor or singer, but I’m delighted that you got to THIS stage in your life - truly a recognition of your wonderful creativity and talent. You also picked a perfect wife, Cathy, if I may say so, who became the mother of another beautiful Gilbert boy (the fourth!) just days before Annie arrived! Don’t forget to pick up some Pampers on your way home from the studio, OK?
