How the hell does crap like Joan of Arcadia and CSI get nominated over Deadwood in the Best Drama category? Also, where the fuck is Ian Mcshanes nomination for playing Al Swearingen?

Fuck the Emmys.

Deadwood got owned

I really hope arrested development picks up that outstanding comedy nod.

[Ned Flanders]

How appropriate that a thread about Deadwood had the word "fuck" in the title. Seems like every time I turned on the show thats all I saw...a bunch of cowboys swearing every 3rd word but not really saying much. The show never clicked with me..

[calder]

How appropriate that a thread about Deadwood had the word "fuck" in the title. Seems like every time I turned on the show thats all I saw...a bunch of cowboys swearing every 3rd word but not really saying much. The show never clicked with me..

It would be more appropriate if the title said "..how Deadwood got fucked over you fucking cunt, I'll kill every one of you droop eyed cocksuckers what fucked with me". Then there'd be a link to a movie clip of some really dirty fat cowboy dancing around with his pecker in his hand.

Awesome show, it really should have been nominated for best drama. And while the cast who got nominated deserve it (Dourif really is great as the doc) seige is right - Ian McShane DEFINITELY should be there. Al Swearengen is the best character on TV in years.

Stick to being the Sperminator or whatever. Criticing T.V. really isn't your field of expertise.

 

[skip]

predictably, a matt leblanc nomination and nothing for scrubs. to hell with TV.

 

[calder]

*Has never understood how grown men watch Buffy and or Buffy spin-offs*

How a presumably grown man with a cartoon character for a nickname and avatar can not understand that blows me away. You know how The Simpsons, despite being from a genre normally thought to be exclusively for children (animated comedies), has the capacity for social commentary, wit and sophisticated humour? Same thing with Buffy et al - just because you don't "understand" how it can be so a lot of actual grown up people find the shows well written, compelling and entertaining.

Shit, that's like saying that just because a book is about robots or the future it can't possibly appeal to anyone but teenagers.

...and Scrubs gets snubbed again.

 

[LinesInTheSand]

Oh wait. From another site:

It seems Scrubs always only receives a few token technical nominations (and usually loses them, damn you Sex and the City!), but this year I think we have a real shot.

It was announced this morning that Garrett Donovan and Neil Goldman were nominated in the category Outstanding Writing For A Comedy Series for the very deserving episode "My Screwup." John Michel was also nominated in the category Outstanding Single-Camera Picture Editing
For A Comedy Series for the same episode.

You can read about all nominees at the Emmy website: http://www.emmys.tv

The awards will be handed out September 12.

Was Deadwood even eligible?

[Brian Fellows]

Deadwood was the best show on TV IMO. Well that or Arrested Development. Yeah Scrubs got screwed too. Oh and GO SOUTHPARK!

 

[Memles]

Outstanding Reality-Competition Program
Nominees:
"Amazing Race 4, The" (2003)
"American Idol: The Search for a Superstar" (2002)
"Apprentice, The" (2004)
"Last Comic Standing" (2003)
"Survivor: All-Stars" (2004)

This, for me, may well be one of the most hotly contested categories.

While I really enjoyed All Stars, if Pearl Islands couldn't beat The Amazing Race Season Three, the inferior All Stars won't be able to beat Season 4, although it was weaker than season three (Flo made for great TV). American Idol lost to BOTH last year, and Last Comic Standing has no chance in hell.

It's really down to The Apprentice and The Amazing Race, for me. But, if I had to put money on it, Trump it is.

Arcadia should be in the running for Best Drama...I enjoy the show, but not THAT good, especially considering some of the snubs...hell, Law and Order is better on a regular basis. But, it's original, and the more original shows on TV the better. Tamblyn deserved her nomination though.

 

[karasu]

lol Buffy and Social Commentary. Whatever

Deadwood doesn't deserve a nomination IMO.

 

[calder]

Learn to read.

 

[karasu]

You know how The Simpsons, despite being from a genre normally thought to be exclusively for children (animated comedies), has the capacity for social commentary, wit and sophisticated humour? Same thing with Buffy et al

I reads.

 

[Guzim]

Go Tony Shalhoub and Peter Boyle!

 

[Saint Cornelius]

Today, on intense wreck week: we learn how opinions can somehow.... be wrong

 

[calder]

I reads.

Not terribly well, but your careful editing sure almost made it look like you had a point.

 

[karasu]

Oh yeah my "careful editing". It's so full of stealth. My attempt to pull the wool over the eyes of the world is a success, almost! Nobody can scroll up and see that I didn't quote two sentences, that don't change the point of what I quoted to begin with.

just because you don't "understand" how it can be so a lot of actual grown up people find the shows well written, compelling and entertaining.

jesus, this sentence doesn't erase the "Same thing with Buffy" remark that followed what you said about Social commentary and the like. I'm not trying to get into a big brouha over this muck.

 

[calder]

Seriously, if you don't see how that sentence works than whatever. Just imagine it said "in the same way ppl couldn't believe a cartoon had biting social commentary some people can't believe that Buffy.... ". I wouldn't necessarily say Buffy *doesn't* have obvious social commentary, but that's not what I was saying there.

 

[MrAngryFace]

I never watch the west wing, blech

 

[btrboyev]

I'm pretty positive curb your enthuisiasm premiered in 2002 not 2000..

 

[LinesInTheSand]

I'm pretty positive curb your enthuisiasm premiered in 2002 not 2000..

Then you'd be wrong.

 

[The Fronde]

Yay for Arrested Development's nod.

Boo for The Simpsons' just getting a nod thrown its way for being The Simpsons, despite the crappiness.

 

[calder]

I'd pick my favourites but I realized I usually only watch one show in each category. Who picks the emmy's? Industry types or media voters? I have trouble imagining even TV insiders watching all those different shows enough to really pick the 'best'.

 

[MrAngryFace]

Aqua Teen should get a nod for best animated damnit!

 

[Spectral Glider]

The Shield is better than almost anything mentioned in this thread and I don't see any nominations for it.

 

[MrAngryFace]

IF THERE ARENT SUITS AND/OR GLASSES IT ISNT GOOD TV!

 

[Drinky Crow]

Master Shake >>> Matthew Perry

 

[AssMan]

Where the fack is Michael Chiklis, and Benito Martinez? Fackin Jews screwing with Emmys (and other award shows) as usual.

 

[MASB]

Why does Will&Grace and The West Wing get nominated multiple times every year? As every year goes by, those show's quality gets lower and lower.

BTW first prediction (not really a prediction, more like almost certainty), any category that Angels In America is nominated for, it will win. Doesn't matter what the competition is. You can almost bet money on that.

No Tom Selleck for Ike: Countdown to D-Day? Boo! You know the Emmys have fallen when James Brolin can get a nomination.

 

[Ned Flanders]

I don't really care about the specifics..if you're a fucking grown man watching Buffy, a show about a teenage ("B-b-but she's older now!!") vampire slayer starring fucking Sarah Michelle Gellar, you should be castrated and deported to Madagascar.

The fucking Simpsons is funny (well, used to be) and allows me to maintain my dignity while watching it. I couldn't respect myself watching Alias (Garner is ugly, fuck you), Seventh Heaven, or Buffy. Thats just the way it is.

I mean I respect everyone's opinion and all. But if you're a man, and you watch Buffy, STOP. For the love of god..

 

[Dead]

whats deadwood

 

[teiresias]

I'd bet money "Angels In America" wins every category in which it's nominated - at least in the big awards (acting, best miniseries, etc.). I don't know what tech nominations it got though.

The film is absolutely fucking incredible though and it deserves everything it gets. I just think it's a shame that Emma Thompson is inevitably overlooked due to the presence of Meryl Streep. Both of them are amazing in the piece, I just think Thompason should get a bit more credit.

 

[jiggle]

With Friends and SatC gone next year, and W&G continuing its downward spiral, maybe they'll finally give Scrubs the props that it deserves, next year...one can hope.

 

[andthebeatgoeson]

whats deadwood

No clue. But then again, I haven't been intrigued by a new HBO series in awhile. Skipping Deadwood, 6 Feet Under, etc. But I've never given them a chance. Oh well, I guess it still isn't just HBO. It's regular ass TV. I don't give any other shows much of a chance.

Only TV shows I will watch religiously, Chappelle. Come on Chappelle.

 

[Dan]

No Scrubs? The Emmys officially do not exist to me. Oh wait, they never did.

I'm still trying to figure out exactly how ones dignitity is hurt by watching one of the most critically acclaimed shows in the last few years.

 

[Dan]

There's gotta be a better way to defend it than by saying it's "critically acclaimed". Everybody Loves Raymond is "critically acclaimed" and everybody knows it's shit.
