So disappointed Justin Lin didn't get a nomination for his episode ("Moderm Warfare) on Community. It was easily the best directed episode in Comedy last season. And disappointed Danny Pudi or Donald Glover didn't get Supporting Noms - would've definitely given one of them Jon Cryer's nod. Wished John Noble got a nod too.

So happy for Connie Britton and Kyle Chandler who FINALLY get nominations.

Love all the Glee, Modern Family, 30 Rock, Lost, Dexter, The Office, Breaking Bad, SNL, and Conan nominations.

SO GLAD Kyle and Connie finally got their well-deserved noms. I'm not sure yet if they show was robbed of an Outstanding Drama nom for this season, yet, though. I still can't forgive the Emmys for robbing it of one for the first season.

Zach Gilford should have been nominated as well. The writing for "The Son" was great, but his acting elevated it to an astronomic level.

The sad thing, though, is that the show won't win anything because these were merely "pressure noms." They felt the pressure to nominate them, but they're not going to actually consider them. They have their stable of Lost, Dexter, and Mad Men noms, and that's all they need/want.

Since I was part of the effort to pressure them, I'll take some credit. I'm not ready to say they won't win anything though. After all, clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose.

I'm beyond thrilled to see all the credit for The Good Wife. I tuned in for REG's guest spot but I fell head over heels in love with the show as a whole. The writing, the acting, its my appointment television. Julianna Margulies has become one of my top five girlcrushes and Archie Panjabi is made of golden awesome. I don't know how I'll choose between Julianna and Connie. Argh, Sophie's choice.

What's up with GOOD WIFE???

A huge amount of nominations for a network-drama series... I tried to watch because I love the actors but found it ULRA bland and boring. Did it become taht great after first 4 episodes that it warrants all these nomniations???

Speaking only for myself, I love the fact that it's subtle. It's not afraid to let the audience sit with questions for an episode or two or ten and it doesn't shy away from gray areas. Plus it just lets actors ACT. It has a very "theatre" feel to it. (Yes, I know how terribly pretentious this all sounds! :lol: ) Also, it gives me exactly what I've been bitching about not getting from soaps: strong women, diversity, it shows instead of tells, I just :wub::wub::wub: that show.

But it did start a little slow for me. I liked the first few eps then before I knew it I was on TGW board debating Peter's legal strategy. LOL!

:wub:

I support them no matter what, but I'm not getting my hopes up :( I don't want to be let down. And if/when Kyle and/or Connie win/wins (because I had to keep the slashes going), I'll run up and down the street like I got the Holy Ghost in me.

But, because I can't say it enough, Zach was robbed, robbed, robbed. I don't care if he was supporting or guest star, as long as he got in there somewhere. That boy's turned in some incredible work over the last four years, and he needs the credit. He needs it.

I love how you say it with a smile. What if Julianna's pulling a Fath? And responds to the hate?

That's true. ZG deserves it. But I'll take a Kyle Chandler win. I was listening to the director commentary for The Kingdom and Peter Berg called Kyle Chandler one of the finest actors of his generation. I'm inclined to agree. BTW, if you do run up and down the street, please have someone video it and post it to You Tube. I wanna see that.

*takes out earrings* That's my girlfriend you're talking about! *pulls razor blade out of hair*

But really...Glee? It's a fun little romp and they certainly have one of the hardest working casts in the business but Emmy worthy? Nope.

"SVU" and "Emmys" don't belong in the same sentence unless its under comedy. What on earth would Hargitay win for? The episode where she goes undercover as a madam? The one where she goes undercover as a Russian cleaning woman or (my personal favorite) the one where she pretends to be a hooker that Eliot ordered up? Which, frankly, only serves to make one question Eliot's taste in hookers.

    • Julie Benz (Darla, BTVS/Angel) auditioned with SMG for the role of Kendall Hart on All My Children
    • @soapfan770 1995/96 to 1999/2000 were not very good in primetime. CBS and ABC both had primetime mess eras, and that's how NBC got away with their Thursday garbage shows finishing in the Top 10. Remember too that ABC was sold to Disney in 1996.  As for ABC primetime mess era, it started with the Top 10 fallout of Roseanne and ended with the breakout success of Who Wants to be a Millionaire. Monday Night Football and Home Improvement pretty much kept ABC alive in that era.
    • This show is miles better under the new writers. It's really a condemnation of Carlivati, because he had the characters and history to write good soap. Instead, he turned it into a joke and a farce. I've heard some people says DAYS is now "too talky." Miss me with that stupid analysis.
    • I always wondered if Jackie wasn't going to be recast after being persumed dead... if Marland was going to pair Evie and Justin as a couple reunited in grief over Jackie's death. The one consistent thing I noticed about Evie during those months she was still on the show was that she was kind of a second mother to Phillip after Jackie's 'death' and Elizabeth no longer on the canvas.   But then one of the three interim writer teams decided to pair up Helena with Justin.. which left Evie even less to do than she had at the start of 1983. You're right that Evie was a unique character on the soap.  She was sweet and trusting, yet she had a quiet strength that made it difficult to push her around (at least when the Dobson's were writing her).  The Ben/Amanda/Eve triangle was an interesting triangle because neither of the women were evil... and Ben did have chemistry and a connection with both women.   It had a pretty decent run from 1978/9 to 1982 before Amanda was spun off into her mother's new marriage to Mark as the other woman.
    • Lots of fast-forwarding in today's episode. The best parts were the Lulu and Tracy scenes and Chase in the tank top. And once again, a horrible cliffhanger with Sonny.
    • A very very brief excerpt from a CBS special is up. That's it. @jam6242 Thank you for the lovely Susan article. I adore that photo of her with Denise - such strong yet different personalities on display.  I remember seeing that photo of Denise, Bill and Susan on soap magazines like Afternoon TV. I wonder if they took it or if DAYS did.
    • I think Joss does know the material and maybe just plagiarized some of Emma's data?   Despite all her actions I do think the show pretends Joss is smart and this class is sort of in her new wheelhouse as a degree. Gio playing Carmen was super high pitched to me.  He's a talented musician but that was screechy lol. TBH, we all know I love Sonny to a fault, but I would rather stare at Rebecca Herbst's opening picture for an hour than listen to Sonny and Jason blather on about giving up the mob.  You can't even try to fake me out at this point.
