Those horny, high schoolers from
Glee have a lot to be singing about this morning. The FOX megahit led the nominations for the 62nd Annual Emmy Awards.
Glee grabbed 19 nominations in all, including Outstanding Comedy Series, Oustanding Actress in a Comedy Series (
Lea Michele), Outstanding Actor in a Comedy Series (
Matthew Morrison), Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series (
Jane Lynch) and Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series (
Chris Colfer).
Glee will face off against ABC's
Modern Family, HBO's
Curb Your Enthusiasm, Showtime's
Nurse Jackie and NBC's
30 Rock and
The Office for Outstanding Comedy Series this August. Yeah, you read that right, the final, stellar season of
Ugly Betty wasn't nominated for Outstanding Comedy Series, nor was the underrated-yet-awesome
Cougar Town.
AMC's Mad Men also scored big, netting nods for Outstanding Drama Series, Outstanding Actress in a Drama Series (January Jones), Outstanding Actor in a Drama Series (Jon Hamm), Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series (John Stattery) and in the Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series category, two nods, one for Christina Hendricks and a second for Elisabeth Moss.
Mad Men will compete with ABC's Lost, AMC's Breaking Bad, Showtime's Dexter, HBO's True Blood and the CBS primetime legal sudser The Good Wife. I've already ordered a case of V to celebrate the primetime drama I hope sinks its fangs into a golden lady on Emmy night. Speaking of that bloody, good show, WTF is up with all of the True Blood actors being snubbed? Obviously voters like the show, since they nominated it for Oustanding Drama, yet I guess they think True Blood managed to be so amazing without the help of the show's phenomenal cast? The 62nd Annual Primetime Emmys will be telecast on NBC on August 29. Check out a list of the major nominees below. READ MORE
