Emmy Nominations Announced!

The 59th Annual Emmy nominations have been announced and boy am I pissed. The overrated Heroes stole a spot from the superior dramas like Friday Night Lights and Dexter, and Two and a Half Men somehow managed to yet again get a nod even though it’s one of the worst comedies on television.

The brilliant Michael C. Hall was snubbed as well, which I will be bitter about until next July, and Weeds was snubbed of a very well deserved nomination for Best Comedy Series to make room for the just okay Entourage and the embarrassing Two and a Half Men.

There are some things I’m very happy about, though. America Ferrera and Vanessa Williams got respective nods in the Lead Actress and Supporting Actress categories and I so hope they both win. Also, finally Kevin Dillon was given a nod for his comic portrayal of Johnny Drama on HBO’s Entourage. Sally Field received a nod for her powerful and poignant performance on Brothers and Sisters this year, and my favorite Grey’s Anatomy actress Katherine Heigl finally got her nomination for Supporting Actress in a Drama Series.

Kudos to Felicity Huffman for being the only actress from Desperate Housewives nominated this year–she gave a fantastic performance in that heart-racing episode called “Bang”, but honestly I’m hoping it finally goes to my girl Mary-Louise Parker who, though she already has an Emmy from Angels In America, has deserved another one for Weeds since day one.

Congrats to all!

SAG Award Nominations: Snubs and Surprises

The 13th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards were announced this morning by previous SAG Award winners Sandra Oh and Elijah Wood. There were a few surprises that snuck in as well as some major snubs.

The Brad Pitt/Cate Blanchett film Babel garnered the most nominations out of all the motion pictures, with three nods–one being for Best Ensemble.

HBO drama The Sopranos dominated the television categories with three nominations, more than any other series–including a Best Ensemble nod, as well as nods for both lead actors, Edie Falco and James Gandolfini.

There was a tie in the Female Actor In A Comedy Series category, so there are 6 nominees there instead of the normal five.

Screen Actors Guild Awards 43rd Annual Life Achievement Award
Julie Andrews

I’m extremely disappointed that yet again, Marcia Cross has been snubbed, but at the same time–the series has not really focused on her character this year, and seeing as how there was a tie in that category, it seems it was particularly competitive.

Also snubbed this year, is Golden Globe nominee Sacha Baron Cohen, who was hilarious in Borat. It may be that because the voting pool here is nothing but actors, that they simply just didn’t take him seriously enough. I mean, just look at the Male Actor In A Leading Role category. There are NO comedic performances.

Golden Globe Nominations! Leo vs. Leo

Woohoo! I’m so happy today because my Desperate Housewives ladies Marcia Cross and Felicity Huffman nabbed Golden Globe nominations! The show itself also got a nomination for Best Comedy Series.

But something interesting about this year’s nominations is…they nominated three people multiple times. Clint Eastwood got two Best Director nominations, Helen Mirren got two nominations for Best Actress in a Mini-Series as well as a Best Actress in a Drama nomination, and Leonardo DiCaprio received two nominations for Best Actor–one for Blood Diamond and one for The Departed.

It seems REALLY stupid to me, because obviously the person cannot win for both. It’s a waste of a nomination, especially when there are other deserving candidates who could be nominated. Luckily, there’s rules against this at the Oscars.

Some other nominations that made me happy:

Jeremy Piven - Entourage
Toni Collette - Little Miss Sunshine
Jennifer Hudson - Dreamgirls
Ben Affleck - Hollywoodland
Patricia Arquette- Medium
Kyra Sedgwick - The Closer
Michael C. Hall - Dexter
Katherine Heigl - Grey’s Anatomy
Ugly Betty
Thank You For Smoking

Snubs:

Vanessa Williams - Ugly Betty
Mariska Hargitay - Law & Order: SVU
Bill Condon - Dreamgirls (Best Director)
Ryan Gosling - Half Nelson (One of Leo’s noms would have gone to him)

Emmy Red Carpet 06: Best and Worst Dressed

Even though Sunday night's Emmy telecast proved to be a snorefest minus some very deserved wins, the fashion was as always, something to talk about.  There were a few hits, and of course quite a few misses.  Okay…a lot of misses. 

Worst Dressed

hewitt.jennifer-2.jpg
 
 Dear Jesus.  This debacle is almost as bad Reese Witherspoon's hopeless Oscar dress.  One of those ghosts should have whispered to Jennifer Love Hewitt that less is more.  Not even Cher would look twice at this shit.   This looks like something that at one point was actually a decent dress, and then they turned it over to a new employee at Michaels Arts and Crafts.  The hair's pretty decent though–kind of old-school Hollywood.  Reminds me of Katharine McPhee's Big Sexy campaign.

 

hargitay.mariska.jpg
 
Mariska, girl, I love you.  And I'm so glad you finally won that Emmy you've for so long deserved–even more glad you look so stunning after just giving birth.  But this dress looks like a pack of rosebushes attacked you and slit your dress right up the middle.  I know vertical lines are slimming, but next time go for stripes. 

 

Kyra.jpg

 

What's with all these talented women pulling off fashion no-nos this year (mind you, I'm not referring to Hewitt)?  Kyra Sedgwick (or as some know her, Mrs. Kevin Bacon) was the only other woman worthy of taking that Emmy trophy for Lead Actress in a Drama if it weren't Hargitay, but this sack of curtains savagely mauled with garden shears probably made the academy go back and change the name in that envelope.  The dress wouldn't have been so bad were it not for that huge circular thing right under her left hip.  It looks like a prop from "The Big Comfy Couch".

 

Paula Abdul.jpg

 

What..the hell?  I could swear I've seen that print on one of my aunt's walls.  It doesn't surprise me that loopy Paula Abdul would show up to the Emmys in true drunken and heavily medicated fashion with a horrid excuse for a gown, but lord woman, being 50 doesn't mean you have to dress like Betty White's bed sheets.

 

Sandra Oh.jpg

 

Let's not get started on how disgusting it is that Sandra Oh was passed over for the snoozer Blythe Danner.  But considering the "Grey's Anatomy" star's choice of outfit, I'm inclined to forgive.  The bottom half of the dress is actually half way decent–it's very haute couture.  But the top half is what does it in–it turns into some kind of Hallmark frill-fest.  And of course Sandra has to make it even worse with the overdone jewelry she bought from the street vendors in the East Village.  Side note: People who have big foreheads should not wear their hair back.  Just ask Toni Collette–she knows why nobody went to see "In Her Shoes".

 

Tyra.jpg

 

Once again, the forehead rule applies.  Tyra herself has even said she's got a "fivehead", yet she insists on wearing the hair up and back.  I think I might actually like this dress if it was a solid color like Sandra Oh's or Kyra Sedgwick's, but this weird mosh posh of lavendar, black and see-through just isn't doing it for me.  I know, I know–it's not really see through–it's that skin-colored crap.  But either way, it looks just as tacky (see Britney Spears–2000 VMAs). 

 

Vanessa Minnillo.jpg

 MTV VJ Vanessa Minnillo probably looked the worst out of every single woman on the red carpet.  I know your salary isn't that great working at TRL, but can't new boyfriend Nick Lachey lend you some change so you can have a decent Emmy gown?  Wait..why are you at the Emmys anyway?  Whatever the reason, it looks like some Bollywood dress meets 2nd grade art project gone very, very bad.

 

Ellen Pompeo.jpg

 

What is with the Grey's Anatomy women and horrid fashion?  You're already second to Desperate Housewives in ratings and award wins, why must you let them show you up on the red carpet too?  Maybe if this were a different material it could be a decent dress but this dress, those eyebrows, the Kellie Pickler hair–it just ain't working Ellen.  The material's too T.J. Maxx, and the design's too Lady of the Lake.

Best Dressed

Evangeline Lily.jpg

Does Evangeline Lilly ever look bad on the red carpet?  I swear, she's a goddess.  Very classic, simple, elegant.  Love it.  She looks great in blues, greens, and purples.

 

Heidi Klum.jpg

 

Not really feeling the hair do on Heidi Klum, but the dress is grade A fashion–even if it does look like it came off the maternity rack.

 

Jamie Lynn Sigler.jpg

 

Her show didn't win anything, but Jamie Lynn Sigler still looked nice, flowy, and delicate.  Kind of looks like something you could buy at J.C. Penney, but it's beautiful nonetheless.

 

Katharine Heigl.jpg

 

Damn, at least somebody's representing from Grey's Anatomy.  Ms. Katherine Heigl looked absolutely stunning in her cream-colored, sparkly gown.  This is how sparkles should be done, Ms. Hewitt!  Katharine looked like a 40s bombshell on the red carpet with her smoky eyeliner and classy finger wave.  Kudos to Izzie Stevens.

dreyfus.julia.louis.jpg

I have to give it to two-time Emmy winner Julia Louis Dreyfuss.  Even though I'm not a big fan of hers, of Seinfeld, or of her new show The New Adventures of Old Christine, I must admit she had the best dress on the red carpet this Sunday.  It was simple, crisp, chic, and the black trim around the bust was brilliant!  I need to find out who made that dress so I can worship them forever.

pressly.jaime.jpg

Nominee Jaime Pressley was an eye-catcher with this exquisite deep purple gown that almost looks as if it was chiseled by Jesus to fit her body.  Everything about it is fabulous, the train at the bottom, the cute little design above the knees, the print, the color–just everything.  Love it, love it, love it.

Debra Messing.jpg

Even though it's a little ridiculous that Debra Messing was nominated yet again this year for Will & Grace, a show that went down the toilet years ago and has been rotting there ever since, I will forgive her shutting out the brilliant Marcia Cross for wearing this dress.  The odd thing is that I feel like I would hate it were it on anyone else, but something about the way it hangs on her, the color of the dress perfectly matching with her gorgeous complexion, and of course her beautiful face and fiery red hair to top it all off.  Both of Grace's gays (Will and Jack) would approve.  Karen's a tough one to please though.

Denis Leary.jpg

We of course can't leave out the men.  Even though is wife's dress makes me both go blind and wanna puke, nominee Denis Leary looked ravishing in his sleek blacknsuit with the perfect red tie to finish off the look.  And of course someone as cool as Denis couldn't go without the shades.

Jeremy Piven.jpg

-sigh- Jeremy Piven.  Could this man get any more dreamy?  I was ecstatic that he was finally given the Emmy win that he deserved for playing Ari Gold on HBO's Entourage but I couldn't forget how great he looked.  He was by far the most fashionable man on the Emmy red carpet.  Of course…he could wear a trash bag and a handful of extension cords and still be the hottest thing in Tinseltown.

Emmy Awards 2006: Winners

So far the best dresses I’ve seen are Jaime Pressly’s and Debra Messing’s. Pictures to come later.

Winners:

Supporting Actress In A Comedy:

Megan Mullaly (Will & Grace)

Thoughts: Okay, I love Megan as much as the next homo. But seriously…she’s won enough awards. This should’ve gone to Elizabeth Perkins or at least Jaime Pressly. Way to go Emmys. You punked out and gave it to Megan just because it’s Will & Grace’s last year. Poo-poo on you.

Supporting Actor In A Drama:

Alan Alda (West Wing)

Thoughts: I’m not upset at this win. Alan did a great job and he didn’t have much tough competition.

Supporting Actress In A Drama:

Blythe Danner (Huff)

Thoughts: You’ve got to be fucking me in the ass. How in the hell can you snub Sandra Oh? And if you were going to snub her, how are you going to give it to Blythe Danner? Seriously? I need to go shove a cob of corn up my ass.

Supporting Actor In A Comedy:

Jeremy Piven (Entourage)

Thoughts: Oh. My. God. Thank you Emmy voters, you finally got it right. Jeremy Piven has deserved to win this award since the very second Entourage premiered and I’m so glad he got his due. If anyone deserved to win tonight it’s Jeremy.

Variety Music or Comedy Series:

The Daily Show With Jon Stewart

Thoughts: You can’t ever go wrong with Jon Stewart. This man is just pure brilliance. I know a lot of people were expecting Dave to win because he submitted the Oprah episode, but Jon is the shit.

Directing In A Comedy Series:

Mark Buckman (My Name Is Earl)

Thoughts: Makes up for the Pressly and Lee snub.

Writing For A Comedy Series:

Greg Garcia (My Name Is Earl)

Thoughts: Lmao! That was the most hilarious speech.

Supporting Actor In A Mini Series:

Jeremy Irons (Elizabeth I)

Thoughts: Well deserved win. You never go wrong with Jeremy Irons.

Lead Actor In A Mini Series:

Andre Braugher (Thief)

Thoughts: That was…a LOT of ums.

Lead Actor In A Comedy:

Tony Shalhoub (Monk)

Thoughts: I wanted it to be between Tony and Steve Carell. A lot of people are gonna be disappointed Steve didn’t take it–especially since Tony’s won twice before. But hey, there’s always next year, and Steve did win the Golden Globe.

TV Movie:

The Girl In The Cafe

Reality Competition Program:

The Amazing Race

Thoughts: Whyyyyyyy?? Again???? Jesus CHRIST. Runway should have won last year and the year before and it should have won this year. If not that–at least Idol. This is seriously ridiculous. I guess we have a new West Wing of the Emmys.

Directing In A Mini Series:

Tom Hooper (Elizabeth I)

Thoughts: Dude, was I just watching an episode of Futurama? ‘Cause that guy was a robot if I’ve ever seen one.

Outstanding Mini Series:

Elizabeth I

Thoughts: Definitely deserved it. Only real competition was Girl In The Cafe.

Lead Actress In A Drama:

Mariska Hargitay (Law & Order:SVU)

Thoughts: YESSSSSSSSSSSSS Finally she won!!!!!! Emmy AND Golden Globe winner Mariska Hargitay! I love the sound of that.

Lead Actress In A Comedy:

Julia Louis Dreyfuss (The New Adventures of Old Christine)

Thoughts: I’ve heard she was great in the episode she submitted–I’m disappointed it didn’t go to Lisa Kudrow though. However…anything’s better than Jane or Debra.

Lead Actor In A Drama:

Kiefer Sutherland (24)

Thoughts: Ew, fuck me in the ass. I know he’s never won, but Jesus. I really wanted either Chris Meloni or Denis Leary to win. There’s always next year.

Oustanding Comedy Series:

The Office

Thoughts: I would’ve given it to Scrubs, but without Housewives I don’t really care much about this category this year.

Oustanding Drama Series:

24

Thoughts: -sigh- 24, again. Grey’s should’ve won. The show’s over. I promise you this will be the lowest rated Emmys ever.
