[Heisenberg]

I'd like to see Game of Thrones pick up a Drama nomination, but I can imagine the 5 to be Dexter, Boardwalk, Mad Men, Good Wife and The Killing - all of which are very deserving. I don't know where Men Of A Certain Age falls, drama of comedy, but would be nice to see that get some recognition, specifically Andre Braugher + writing. Margo Martindale and Walton Goggins were both great on Justified, and Parks + Rec needs to win best comedy - but it won't.

 

[SuperBatman]

I hope that Peter Dinklage gets a nomination for best supporting actor for Game of Thrones.

 

[Heisenberg]

I hope that Peter Dinklage gets a nomination for best supporting actor for Game of Thrones.

He has to win.

 

[MadVillainy]

Waiting six years for Psych, James Roday, and/or Dule Hill to get a nom. Still waiting

and yah Dinklage for Supporting actor would be great

 

[Sawyer]

John Noble for Best Supporting Actor.

No arguments.

 

[Pink Ranger]

I hope that Peter Dinklage gets a nomination for best supporting actor for Game of Thrones.

Agree x A Billion.

I'm really not trying to be funny here, but he's head and shoulders above all the other supporting character actors in dramas I've seen all year.

USA is REALLY pushing their shows this year. I doubt it'll happen but hopefully this is their year.

I'd also like to see Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia (particularly Devito and Day) and The League get some love. They are probably too low brow for the academy. It is really sad, because they are two of the funniest shows on television and two of the most clever.

 

[Sawyer]

Archer better get nominated for Animated Program. If Archer isn't nominated, but The Simpsons or Family Guy are, I'll be disgusted.

 

[Sawyer]

Dammit, I want Peter Krause to get a lead actor nom.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

Don't lie. Of course you are


And yes, Dinklage HAS to win an Emmy for Tyrion Lannister. How can you not win after this line?

(on being asked how he wants to die) "In my bed, at the age of 80. With a belly full of whine and a woman's mouth around my cock."

 

[Sawyer]

Pales in compairison to some of the greatness Walter Bishop has spouted out over the last three years.

 

[lime]

Don't know about you but Jon Hamm needs to finally wins the Emmy! This season of Mad Men was he's best.

 

[O'Haire]

Don't know about you but Jon Hamm needs to finally wins the Emmy! This season of Mad Men was he's best.

Agree. The Suitcase alone should be reason enough for him to get the win. He was absolutely fantastic in that episode. So was Elisabeth Moss. Wouldn't be surprised to see her win something too.

 

[Prison Mike]

Hamm hasn't won an Emmy yet? They need to give it to him NOW.

 

[Sawyer]

**** the Emmys if Amy Pohler doesn't win Best Lead Actress in a Comedy.

She is head and shoulders above all the actresses nominated last year.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

**** the Emmys if Amy Pohler doesn't win Best Lead Actress in a Comedy.

This is the Emmies, not the Razzies. The talented and, in this case, funny actors are supposed to win.

 

[Sawyer]

Thanks for clearing that up. I was so confused before.

Captain Obvious.

Disgusting that shows like Sunny, and USA's shows continue to be snubbed due to their lighter nature while shows like Glee continue to get nominations despite total **** writing and inconsistent acting (from all but Lynch). The Emmys are becoming as political as the Oscars. I mean, seriously, how the **** do you snub Nick Offerman's role as the man who redefined television, Ron Swanson yet give Chris Colfer a nomination? Maybe if Ron Swanson sheds some tears or starts having very special episodes that address social issues he'll finally get some love. And don't even get me started on Jon Cryer getting yet another nomination while Charlie Day, Danny DeVito, Dule Hill, and Bruce Campbell continue to get the snub.

Oh well, at least Boardwalk Empire got some love.

 

[KALEL114]

Let's see, Glee gets nominated over Community and John Noble gets snubbed again? Yep, sucky Emmys are still sucky.

Edit: Kathy Bates? Really?

 

[Speedball]

Peter Dinklage better get that emmy win or I will lead an army of enraged fans to the President of The Academy of Television Arts & Sciences and take his head with Ned Starks sword, Ice!

 

[SuperSpideyGirl]

I'm very Changry about the Community snub.

Also, Katey Sagal, John Noble, and Nick Offerman should have been nominated.

 

[Crockett]

Community gets no love.

I'm crossing my fingers that Dinklage wins an Emmy.

 

[Soapy]

Community...
