The Yays:
- 24 getting 12 nominations (the most). It's about time they noticed how great this show is.
- Grey's Anatomy getting 11. I'm a believer now.
- Arrested Development getting nominated for Best Comedy Series giving it a chance to pull a Ben Stiller 1
- Desperate Housewives getting shut out of the Best Comedy Series nomination because this season really did suck
- The Girl in the Cafe getting a nominated for TV movie because I really liked it even though it was a little preachy
- Gregory Itzin (President Logan) & Jean Smart (Martha Logan) getting supporting nods for 24.
- Will Arnett (G.O.B.) getting a supporting nod for Arrested Development
- The Office and Scrubs getting best comedy series nominations
- Dennis Leary getting a best acting nomination. Never thought I'd see that day come.
- Patrick Stewart getting nominated for his guest stint on Extras. "Make it so!"
- Chandra Wilson (Dr. Bailey) getting a supporting nomination for Grey's Anatomy
- Jaime Pressley getting nominated for My Name Is Earl. Never thought she would get nominated for anything in her life except maybe a Cinemax Lifetime Achievement Award but she deserved it.
- The Two And A Half Men Enigma continues. Best Comedy Series? Really? So out of all the shows on television, Two and A Half Men is funnier than Entourage, How I Met Your Mother, Extras, Everybody Hates Chris and My Name Is Earl? Who votes for these things?
- The supposed "Lauren Graham Rule" didn't nab Lauren Graham a nomination. That's just ironic.
- Now I think Kevin James (The King of Queens) is a funny guy. But is he one of the five funniest actors in television?
- No acting nominations for Scrubs. C'mon, at least Donald Faison (Turk) deserved some Emmy love.
- I really wanted T.R. Knight (Dr. George O'Malley) from Grey's Anatomy to be nominated
- Aside from Steve Carell, no other actors were nominated from The Office.
- How does House get nominated but the actor the show pretty much revolves around and depends on, Hugh Laurie, doesn't?
- Michael Hall (David Fisher) deserved a nomination more than Peter Krause (Nate Fisher) for Six Feet Under
- Still no love for Mary Lynn Rajskub (Chloe) from 24.
- Double ditto for Veronica Mars or Kristin Bell.
- Triple Ditto for Battlestar Galactica and Mary McDonnell and Edward James Olmos. You'd think Lost would have opened up the possibility of a sci-fi show getting some love. Speaking of Lost...
- No major nominations for Lost?!?! This must be a joke. Please let this be a joke.
- How does Edie Falco NOT get nominated for Best Actress in a Drama? Episodes 2 and 3 should have not only made her a lock to get nominated, I thought her name was already engraved on the statue. I wasn't the only one.
- The Shield? NOTHING?!? At LEAST Forest Whitaker should have been a shoo-in.
- I love that the only major acting nomination for Desperate Housewives was for Alfre Woodard who was forgotten about on a number of occasions this season and then chased off at the end of this crap season. She gets the last laugh.
- Still waiting for this Lost joke to be over.
