Though it may be hard to keep track of every country music awards show out there, the CMA Awards is coming back to television sooner rather than later. Broadcasting November 10 on ABC, it has been announced that former "American Idol" winner (and recently newlywed) Carrie Underwood will be back to co-host the show for the third straight year with Brad Paisley.

The early nominations for the show have been announced (the rest will air Wednesday on "Good Morning America"), and it looks like 2010 could really be the year of Miranda Lambert. The Sweetwater, Texas native is already up for five awards -- including Song and Video of the Year.

Last time around, it was Taylor Swift's time in the spotlight -- however, with her new single "Mine" just being released, she is so far a non-factor in any of the major categories.

Do you plan on watching the CMA Awards?
