In All Things TV Kathy Griffin Special Events
Five things to be happy about in respect to this year’s Emmy nominations.
- Everybody Loves Raymond isn’t on television anymore, so it can’t win anything. Hooray!
- Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List got nominated.
- Lots of fun surprises in the supporting categories including Jenna Fisher, Michael Emerson (Ben from Lost), Rainn Wilson and Masi Oka.
- Battlestar did get some directing and writing nominations.
- Guest star nominations for Laurie Metcalf and Sir Ian McKellan.
Five things to not be happy about in respect to this year’s Emmy nominations.
- There’s at least one entry in pretty much every category that is going to fill me with dread. That is, there are four nominees I wouldn’t mind winning and then one stinker. I’m looking at you, Boston Legal.
- Two and a Half Men continues to fill up the comedy categories.
- I swear to God that Patricia Arquette has sold her soul to the devil for all these Emmy nominations.
- No Veronica Mars.
- No Dexter.
Mary McDonnell could beat the crap out of Patricia Arquette. I kind of wish she would. Katee Sackhoff could hold her coat.
Hee. I prefer to think that Mary would cunningly manipulate Katee into beating the crap out of Patricia. And then stand back and watch with a grim smile on her face.
