It's Emmy Time.

Recommended Posts

Last year Without a Trace submitted "Wannabe", the best episode well ever, and didn't get any big nominations.

 

The people at the Emmy's can be clueless

Which episode was this? What was it about(I suck with names)?

 

I also hope Without A Trace gets some recognition but I'm fairly certain it won't outside of a sympathy nod for Lapaglia.

Wannabe was the one

where the kid goes missing from the school and they think it's a kidnapping at first, but ends up he ran away and was going to hang himself because he was humiliated by some girls from his class.

Have any UPN/WB shows ever received Emmy recognition?

 

Well, in 2001 UPN was in this valued category.

 

OUTSTANDING CHILDREN'S PROGRAM

(Area Award)

"King Gimp." HBO.

"Nick News with Linda Ellerbee." Nickelodeon.

"Peter Pan Starring Cathy Rigby." A&E.

"Rugrats." Nickelodeon.

"The Teen Files: Surviving High School." UPN.

 

Other than that, no to both.

Malone v. Malone was submitted probably to get LaPaglia a nod.

The other episode (the one with Dylan Baker) was probably to help Eric Close.

 

I don't know why they submitted the abortion episode.

Piven rules on Entourage, but the rest of the cast is kind of eh.

 

 

Best show on TV (at least IMO) that is not gonna get any consideration is The Wire. Such great writing and acting, yet goes unnoticed by the Academy. For shame because it's so damn good. Sad that only Tim Cooke is the only guy here who's seen the damn show.

Watch all the comedy nods get taken by Desperate Housewives. It's bullshit, just like when Ally McBeal was nominated as a comedy and won.

This year:

 

What's with the Huff nominations? That's some of the worst garbage I've ever seen. Hank Azaria must have paid them off.

 

Conan O'Brien is going to lose (again) in a category he deserves to win (again) to the only mildly funny and captivating Daily Show.

 

Extreme Makeover: Home Edition deserves to win the Reality Show category (again). Why it lost last year to "Queer Eye", I have no goddamn clue.

 

While The OC sucked this year, Rachel Bilson surely deserves a nod over Blythe Danner. I can think of several episodes they could have sent showcasing her acting abilities.

 

Boo Emmys.

Glenn Close gets the only Shield nod...give me a break

Congrats to CCH Pounder on finally getting nominated. Seriously, she's been criminally overlooked by the voters despite putting in stellar performances every year on the Shield. Glenn Close also deserves some kudos for her nod. Damn shame that Anthony Anderson got overlooked. Also, major props for Terry O'Quinn's nod, as he brilliantly portrays one of the best characters on television.

At least The Wire got a writing nod, which is the show's top strength of many strengths.

 

It's too bad The Wire is overlooked because Idris Elba as Stringer Bell 0wns HBO Drama.

Man, they nominated Tambor for and Emmy, but not Arnett, Cross or Cera? Tambor didn't even DO anything this season (though I think he's a funny guy)

I'm hoping the three Slutty Housewives actresses will split the vote for the show 3 ways, enough for someone else to win.

its not a bad show, its just that i'm sick to fucking death of hearing about it. Everywhere. i couldnt even watch the fucking nba finals without them going on abut the hot slutty hispanic housewife.
