WOOHOOO for these nominations!

I'm especially happy for 30 Rock and The Office - the two best comedies in primetime! And for Lost and Dexter nods for Drama. Yay!!

I'm so happy for Lee Pace and Kristin Chenoweth

Edited July 17, 200817 yr by Laurie

I'm very happy for Dexter, Mad Men, Lost, 30 Rock, The Office, Pushing Daisies, House, the Grey's/Brothers and Sisters/Ugly Betty actors , Amy Poehler (excited that SNL actors can finally get acting noms), and Kyra Sedgwick..

Toups you should really check out Mad Men...Its such a well done show and very addicting..I got into the show during the writer's strike and i'm really looking forward to season 2...I have a feeling it will win best drama..

interesting fact. Tina Fey is nominated 4 times this year in different categories.

interesting fact. Tina Fey is nominated 4 times this year in different categories.

Woohoo! Imo, 30 Rock is the funniest show on TV so I hope she wins for writing and comedy series.

I want Mad Men and 30 Rock for the win.

Go 30 Rock, The Office, Lost, Dexter!!

I'm happy that 30 Rock already won for Guest Actor in a Comedy Series for Tim Conway. I remember one of the funniest lines came in the episodes he guest starred in - ".....and this used to be known as the Jew room [writer's room]."

http://nymag.com/daily/entertainment/2008/..._60_one_la.html

Tim Conway showed up on 30 Rock as a onetime NBC star who's given a tour of the studio by Kenneth the Page. The subplot was an eerie throwback to Eli Wallach's guest spot on Studio 60, in one of the first episodes that made us get that "Uh-oh, maybe this whole thing is gonna suck" feeling, where Wallach played a former TV writer who returns to the studio to teach everyone a Valuable Lesson about The Blacklist and The Way Things Used to Be. Because this is 30 Rock, though, Tim Conway taught Kenneth that back in his day, pages were called "sandwich girls" for totally obscene reasons, male NBC stars all slept with each other, the NBC peacock got eaten, and the writers' room used to be called "the Jew room."

I'm a Office fan and would like to see the show and actors win.

I'm picking Mad Men and 30 Rock for best shows..Best actor i'd be happy with John Hamm, Michael C. Hall or Hugh Laurie..And actress i like most of them, but have a feeling Glenn Close will win...For comedies i'd love to see Alec Baldwin and Tina Fey win..and i'm hoping Amy Poehler getting a supporting actress in a comedy win..

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler should host. They're awesome.

Is it just me or is this a train wreck?

And IA, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler should've hosted.

I liked the DH gals presenting

Happy Jean Smart won

And yeah Tina and Amy should have hosted(even though I love Tom and Heidi)

Edited September 22, 200817 yr by Laurie

Ricky Gervais and Steve Carell are awesome!!! That bit was hiliarious.
