'Precious' Wins Big at 'NAACP Image Awards' (VIDEO)
It's wonderful to see an important film like 'Precious' get the accolades it deserves. The film swept the 'NAACP Image Awards' (Fri., 8PM ET on Fox), taking home trophies for outstanding motion picture, independent motion picture, actress, and supporting actress.We loved Gabourey Sidibe's tearful acceptance speech. "I didn't really expect this," she said. "I just want to thank my God for ordering my steps, for everything that my life was, and everything that it is now."
It was also funnily poignant when director Lee Daniels proclaimed, "God is good," and the audience shot back, "All the time!"

What to Watch Feb. 26 - March 4
The Black Donnellys (Mon., 10PM, NBC) series premiere
There are no original ideas in the movies -- everything's a sequel, prequel or "re-imagining." So, it's no surprise that this new show from Oscar-winning movie producers Paul Haggis and Bobby Moresco (Crash) tries to be an Irish version of The Sopranos. The Donnellys comprise four brothers: hothead Jimmy, gambling Kevin, artistic Tommy and baby Sean. When Jimmy kidnaps Kevin's bookie, the brothers find themselves facing off against the Italian mob.
