Question: Well, well. I just heard the Emmy nominations. Those were interesting. I won't go on a complete rant and talk about how their whole system is flawed, but can I float a few nominations and omissions by you that go in the all-time "what was this awards show thinking about" category?
Six Feet Under and
The West Wing for best drama series. I mean come on.
Lost,
24 and
Deadwood were all great, but absolutely necessary, choices. Where was
House,
Rescue Me,
Nip/Tuck or
CSI? That was insane. And how about
Shohreh Aghdashloo being left off the ballot? What in the world were these people thinking about? And those are just the first three things that came to my mind. Matt, please. Can you account for any of this?
Answer: Not really. And I'm sick about Aghdashloo from
24, and
Anthony Anderson from
The Shield, being passed over. They were two of the most compelling guest adversaries I've ever seen, and to ignore them for the likes of
Stockard Channing,
Tyne Daly (both actresses I admire, but still) and
Huff's obnoxious
Oliver Platt, it's all very depressing.
