Emmy nominees 2008: Finalists revealed

[carriefox]

I always ended up catching the last two or three minutes of Grey's Anatomy before Lost. It felt like two or three hours. Just a bunch of annoying bastards forever whining about their lives and manufactured problems. Is it wrong for me to hope they do a storyline where the medical staff is taken over the characters are tied up and executed gangland style?

That's what I feel about BSG.

May as well revive this thread for the lastest Emmy news...

Alec Baldwin, 30 Rock
Steve Carell, The Office
Larry David, Curb Your Enthusiasm
David Duchovny, Californication

Still rooting for Pace to pull an upset.

Have these other categories been discussed? My votes go to: Chenoweth, McBrayer (no Chi McBride?!? that must be a misprint!!!), Carradine (haven't seen Dexter S2 but I have every confidence that he kicked ass) and Stritch.

Well, it's nice to see Dexter getting a fair number of nominations. The second season just started here last Sunday... and I really enjoyed the season premiere.

Chi McBride and "Weeds" wasn't nominated? I don't know if I should punch a wall or just cry. I am especially upset about Chi. His smart mouth and perfect comic delivery is one of things I absolutely love about "PD".

But since I am late to the party, I hope "Pushing Daisies" and "Dexter" wins for best shows. Then I hope Jake Weber (who turned in some fantastic work this season), Lee Pace, Kristin Chenoweth (or Elizabeth Perkins) and Neil Patrick Harris snag a win.

I am curious to see who is on the list for the other categories. I am hoping Mary McDonnell is at least given a node.
