Jean Smart<\/strong><\/a> has a message for television executives amid the ongoing Los Angeles fires<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cAttention! With ALL due respect, during Hollywood\u2019s season of celebration, I hope any of the networks televising the upcoming awards will seriously consider NOT televising them and donating the revenue they would have garnered to victims of the fires and the firefighters,\u201d the Hacks<\/em><\/a> star wrote via Instagram<\/a> on Wednesday, December 8.<\/p>\n

Smart\u2019s plea comes as various Hollywood events were impacted<\/a> by at least four fires across Los Angeles. The Critics Choice Awards \u2014 slated to take place on Sunday, January 12, and air on E! \u2014 have been postponed, as has the Oscars nominations announcement. The big reveal was due to take place on Friday, January 17, and is now penciled in for Sunday, January 19, according to The Hollywood Reporter<\/em>. (The Oscars are scheduled to air March 2 on ABC.)<\/p>\n

\u201cThis unfolding tragedy has already had a profound impact on our community. All our thoughts and prayers are with those battling the devastating fires and with all who have been affected,\u201d Critics Choice Awards CEO Joey Berlin<\/strong> said in a statement. The Critics Choice Awards will now air live on January 26.<\/p>\n
