Congrats to Alec Baldwin and Laura Linney…….I heard you and I loved it.
Kristin Chenoweth got robbed. Totally. I forgot Jean Smart was still living.
Ryan Seacrest is awesome. I would have very happy if he won.
No House or Robert Sean Leonard? No Friday Night Lights? And Prison Break may be far-fetched, but actors like Robert Knepper and Bill Fichtner should have receive Emmy nominations a long time ago. X-Files was far-fetched, but that didn’t stop it from getting Emmy nods. Hopefully next year the Emmy nominators will get their heads out of their butts and nominate (and reward) the decent shows. TV is about the people who watch the shows - maybe viewing public should vote for the Emmys and not a bunch of people who clearly have no clue whats on!
Where’s Battlestar Galactica? Where are Galactica’s writers? directors? and actors? Or was each category really: Best (fill in the blank) other than the guy in Battlestar Galactica.
Lost got snubbed. D:
i didnt like most of the winners, i couldnt believe lost had only one nomination. xoxo
…Where was hereos and rescue me and house? Totally fing robbed.
so happy for Laura! ♥
