QUICK EMMY OBSERVATIONS
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA (PART TWO) will be forthcoming.
This is the single best array of nominees in the Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series in a long damn time. FULL NOMINATIONS LIST HERE
As such, the pessimist view is that it guarantees disappointment. I want to see The Wire get it's due, but it'll be at the cost of Battlestar Galactica getting some love. And then Mad Men too. I confess, however, indifference to Damages.
And check that out, Mad Men writer's assistant (Veith) gets an Emmy nod out of the gate. Live up to that.
Drama series category ain't looking too shabby.
I need for House to get some recognition.
Lastly, the cruelty of pitting Pushing Daisies against 30 Rock in the comedy writing category.
Sorry, though, gotta go with the Fey.
Or do I?
