Gayla Johnson has received the Sixteenth Annual Telly Award for her role in a sketch comedy series.

Gayla's portrayal of a non-suspecting, patriotic citizen brought rave applause and hilarious acclaim from reviewers at the premier. Her character was a terrified car-jacked victim who, after realizing the assailant changed his mind about stealing the American made car, transformed into the All American Citizen defending American-made vehicles, even if the wheels aren't aligned and the engine rattles.  She snatched his gun, o rdered him into the car, and demanded that he follow through with his original objective. "Steal American!"

Other sketches from Tilted Television were also shown at the premier. The private screening, which, closed with a networking Gala, could result in the event being rescheduled for an additional screening.
