The Emmys Fuck Some Shit Up ... Again


... but here is a complete list anyways.

NOMINATIONS


Check out my thoughts on the nominees after the jump.



Mad Men - Ecstatic that is got all those nominations but much like the era of the show the WOMEN were shut out. Ya can't tell me that Peggy and Joan weren't as deserving as Don, Sterling, and Cooper.

YAY for Dexter!

Boston Legal
- This show blows. I blame it on the Alzheimer vote.

In Treatment got serious nominations but Tell Me You Love Me didn't. Jesus! Treatment is so over the top and Love is so subtly good. I mean, they should've at least gotten nominations for those digital balls they CGI-ed in.

Best Comedy = 2.5 Men YES ... Pushing Daisies NO - the most innovative Comedy is left off the list so the most mundane can be there, huh?

Entourage is not good anymore. Stop giving it nominations. The show needs to be "hugged out" till it suffocates.

Samantha Who? - Should be called Samantha Why?

Weeds - Granted it was not as good last season as 1 and 2 but it is still heads and shoulders above of the other comedies. The Office wasn't as great but it still got tons of nominations.

Tony Shalhoub
needs to take a page out of Katherine Heigl's book.

Flight of the Conchords deserved many more nominations. Hopefully they will at least perform at the Emmy telecast. My vote is for "Bowie in Space."

My favorite blondes - Kristin Chenoweth and Amy Poehler.

LOVE all the nominations for the Extras: The Extra Special Series Finale. A great capstone to a great series. Hopefully the wankers at the Emmy's will give it some gold instead of doing the easy thing and giving ALL the awards to Recount (which they will).

30 Rock still ROCKS!!!! Give them every Emmy especially one to Tim Conway in his turn as a racist, anti-semitic (calls the Writer's Room the "Jew" Room), and kinda gay former employee of NBC.

"I'm Fucking Matt Damon" is nominated for an Emmy. Maybe they do have a sense of humor.
