Ok, this is me spazzing out over the relevant categories (what I consider relevant, anyway...)
So, because of theridiculously crappy new voting system, Drama categories ended up with a whole lot of '6 noms'...people were predicting it and it's quite nice. Still don't like the new system though. But anyway, I don't want to continually mention all of the sixes, so...there it is.
Outstanding Comedy Series
Entourage • HBO
The Office • NBC
30 Rock • NBC
Two And A Half Men • CBS
Ugly Betty • ABC
Heh, no DH. Yet another snub to them. Sucky. But ENTOURAGE?? I must just take a second to w00t at a loud volume. W00T!!!!! Lastly, The Office was a complete lock, but that doesn't mean I'm not utterly overjoyed at seeing it there. So, yeah - The Office or Entourage must win. Now plz.
Outstanding Lead Actor In A Comedy Series
Ricky Gervais as Andy Millman • Extras • HBO
Tony Shalhoub as Adrian Monk • Monk • USA
Steve Carell as Michael Scott • The Office • NBC
Alec Baldwin as Jack Donaghy • 30 Rock • NBC
Charlie Sheen as Charlie Harper • Two And A Half Men • CBS
Wait, Ricky Gervais? ZOMG the pure awesomeness of that nom. Basically, either he orProduce Pete Steve have to win. Have to. Then again, what does SC not win?
Outstanding Lead Actress In A Comedy Series
Felicity Huffman as Lynette Scavo • Desperate Housewives • ABC
Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Christine Campbell • The New Adventures Of Old Christine • CBS
Tina Fey as Liz Lemon • 30 Rock • NBC
America Ferrera as Betty Suarez • Ugly Betty • ABC
Mary-Louise Parker as Nancy Botwin • Weeds • Showtime
There were so many people sure that there would be 3 housewives in the category and I told them it wasn't going to happen. Still, only one? I was kinda pulling for Marcia Cross this year. Teri Hatcher had a pretty good year too. Gah. Still, no real suprises, huh?
Outstanding Supporting Actor In A Comedy Series
Kevin Dillon as Johnny Drama • Entourage • HBO
Jeremy Piven as Ari Gold • Entourage • HBO
Neil Patrick Harris as Barney Stinson • How I Met Your Mother • CBS
Rainn Wilson as Dwight Schrute • The Office • NBC
Jon Cryer as Alan Harper • Two And A Half Men • CBS
Uhh...can you say BEST CATERGORY EVER???? KEVIN DILLON!!!!!!!! SERIOUSLY?!!?!?!?! I mean, it would have been awesome in J-Kras had gotten a nom, but there's always next year (it'll come). And how adorable was Jon Cryer at the announcements when he learnt about all the Two and a Half Men noms? I love him so much...Neil Patrick Harris was a pleasant suprise, dontcha think?
Outstanding Supporting Actress In A Comedy Series
Jaime Pressly as Joy Turner • My Name Is Earl • NBC
Jenna Fischer as Pam Beesly • The Office • NBC
Holland Taylor as Evelyn Harper • Two And A Half Men • CBS
Conchata Ferrell as Berta • Two And A Half Men • CBS
Vanessa Williams as Wilhelmina Slater • Ugly Betty • ABC
Elizabeth Perkins as Celia Hodes • Weeds • Showtime
Jenna Fischer pretty much rules all. Also, it's nice to know that despite Vanessa Williams godawful tape, she still got in. And the Emmys really love Two and a Half Men, don't they?
Outstanding Guest Actress In A Comedy Series
Dixie Carter as Gloria Hodge • Desperate Housewives • ABC
Laurie Metcalf as Carolyn Bigsby • Desperate Housewives • ABC
Elaine Stritch as Colleen Donaghy • 30 Rock • NBC
Judith Light as Claire Meade • Ugly Betty • ABC
Salma Hayek as Sofia Reyes • Ugly Betty • ABC
Ok, now Laurie Metcalf, CHANGE YOUR FREAKIN' TAPE TO 'BANG'!!!!!!' Good Lord...
Outstanding Casting For A Comedy Series
Desperate Housewives • ABC
Entourage • HBO
30 Rock • NBC
Ugly Betty • ABC
Weeds • Showtime
Entourage! Entourage! Entourage! Although an Ugly Betty win would be pretty damn awesome...they have a great cast.
Outstanding Drama Series
Boston Legal • ABC
Grey’s Anatomy • ABC
Heroes • NBC
House • Fox
The Sopranos • HBO
House, House, House, House, House - I never doubted you. GA was a lock. Heroes is a pleasant suprise. I mean, it's one of my favourite shows, but I never expected it to make it anywhere near the top 5, so w00t. But...WHERE THE FUCK IS LOST? You know, ATAS changed the voting system this year just to make sure that LOST wouldn't be snubbed again. That's irony for you. Now ATAS, go change the fucking system back to the way it was, so that 'popularity' plays absolutely no part!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Outstanding Lead Actor In A Drama Series
James Spader as Alan Shore • Boston Legal • ABC
Hugh Laurie as Dr. Gregory House • House • Fox
Denis Leary as Tommy Gavin • Rescue Me • FX
James Gandolfini as Tony Soprano • The Sopranos • HBO
Kiefer Sutherland as Jack Bauer • 24 • Fox
Pretty predictable, apart from one tiny, little, inconsequential thing: WHERE THE FUCK IS MICHAEL C. HALL? That's not even funny. Pretty ridiculous, actually.Also would have been awesome if Kyle Chandler had made it through, but that was a long shot.
Anyone want to even venture a guess as to who I'm pulling for? Do I really need to spazz out about it? No. Because I refused to accept that there was any chance Hugh Laurie would get snubbed again.
Really, to me, it seems like this race is between Gandolfini and HL. Considering this is Gandolfini's last year...ick.
Outstanding Lead Actress In A Drama Series
Sally Field as Nora Walker • Brothers & Sisters • ABC
Kyra Sedgwick as Dep. Chief Brenda Leigh Johnson • The Closer • Slippin’ • TNT
Mariska Hargitay as Detective Olivia Benson • Law & Order: Special Victims Unit • NBC
Patricia Arquette as Allison Dubois • Medium • NBC
Minnie Driver as Dahlia Malloy • The Riches • FX
Edie Falco as Carmela Soprano •The Sopranos • HBO
I was really kinda pulling for Calista Flockhart over Patricia Arquette. Ellen Pompeo also had a killer tape (suprisingly), so that would have been cool. But really - no suprises, again. I am therefore pulling for Sally Field, who is as awesome as ever.
Outstanding Supporting Actor In A Drama Series
William Shatner as Denny Crane • Boston Legal • ABC
T.R. Knight as George • Grey’s Anatomy • ABC
Masi Oka as Hiro Nakamura • Heroes • NBC
Michael Emerson as Ben • Lost • ABC
Terry O’Quinn as John Locke • Lost • ABC
Michael Imperioli as Christopher Moltisanti • The Sopranos • HBO
T. R. KINGHT! T. R. KNIGHT! T.R. KNIGHT! T.R. KNIGHT! T.R. KNIGHT! T.R. KNIGHT! Shouldn't be suprised, Six Days pt 1&2 left me in fucking tears, but still. Also: TERRY O' QUINN!!!!!! MICHAEL EMERSON!!!!! LOST BOYS RULE ALL! Lastly, as much as I love Masi Oka, Jack Coleman deserved that nom much more. Maybe next year...
Outstanding Supporting Actress In A Drama Series
Rachel Griffiths as Sarah Whedon • Brothers & Sisters • ABC
Katherine Heigl as Isobel “Izzie” Stevens • Grey’s Anatomy • ABC
Chandra Wilson as Dr. Bailey • Grey’s Anatomy • ABC
Sandra Oh as Cristina Yang • Grey’s Anatomy • ABC
Aida Turturro as Janice Soprano • The Sopranos • HBO
Lorraine Bracco as Dr. Jennifer Melfi • The Sopranos • HBO
Three GA ladies? Huh. Don't really get the Katherine Heigl love this year. Last year I loved her, but this year? Not so much. Still, congrats to her, I guess. I still adore CW, but she didn't have a whole lot to do this year - she got it because she's Chandra Wilson and thus by default, awesome. Not particularly fair, but that's the way it generally goes in the Emmys. I pretty much hero-worship Sandra Oh, but she's always nominated (deservedly). Rachel Griffiths was an extremely pleasant surprise :)
Outstanding Guest Actor In A Drama Series
Christian Clemenson as Jerry “Hands” Espenson • Boston Legal • ABC
Forest Whitaker as Curtis Ames • ER • NBC
David Morse as Michael Tritter • House • Fox
Tim Daly as J.T. Dolan • The Sopranos • HBO
John Goodman as Judge Robert Bebe • Studio 60 On The Sunset Strip • NBC
Eli Wallach as Eli Weintraub • Studio 60 On The Sunset Strip • NBC
I am possibly the only person in the world who loved the Tritter arc, but that doesn't mean that I didn't find Tritter utterly shitty. For this reason, I am over the moon at David Morse's nom - he was unbelievably awesome and so freakin' detestable as Tritter. FTW! Also: WHERE THE FUCK IS GEORGE DZUNDZA??? Pah. Dead to me, Emmys. Well, not quite, but whatever. Bring back Daddy O'Malley!

Kate Burton as Ellis Grey • Grey’s Anatomy • ABC
Elizabeth Reaser as Jane Doe • Grey’s Anatomy • ABC
Marcia Gay Harden as Star Morrison • Law & Order: Special Victims Unit • NBC
Leslie Caron as Lorraine Chalmers • Law & Order: Special Victims Unit • NBC
Jean Smart as Martha Logan • 24 • Fox
Hey, Crush is there. Whoo, Elizabeth Reaser. Does anyone else find it funny that even though she has a name, she's still called Jane Doe on the official Emmy's release? Heh. Also, KATE BURTON MUST WIN. The End.

Outstanding Lead Actress In A Miniseries Or A Movie
Just want to say - what about Sarah Chalke? She rocked Why I Wore Lipstick To My Vasectomy. Pah.
Now I know I didn't include any TDS or TCR mentions, but honestly, they were both nominated like, 10 times and I'm lazy. Basically you must always assume that when they are nominated, I don't give a shit about any of the other noms and am always behind them both 100%. Never will I choose between them (although it would be nice for TCR to win at least one. TDS have tonnes by now...)
So, because of the
