Who in the nine hells… which lord of Kobol do we have to sacrifice a goat to in order to get John Noble his well-deserved (and mightily overdue) nomination?!
Its just sad. So very sad. Maybe they’re just confused because John Noble plays at least 3 vastly different versions of the same character – all with amazing skill – and they just don’t know which one to nominate.
And I’d sacrifice Zeus right now to make this happen…
Hehehe! And I completely agreed! John Noble should have been nominated eons ago!
Sad that they keep overlooking him…his performance is outstanding…one of the best actors in the business.
I don’t know who will win, but I know who I think should win.
Game of Thrones (because the rest I’ve either not heard of, or are just plain bad)
and
The Big Bang Theory (I haven’t even so much as heard of any of the others, plus, The Big Bang Theory is really good and is in my top ten best comedies)
I doubt Thrones will win it this year…..honestly Breaking Bad was better.
Now, I like Mad Men as much as the next person, but ‘Breaking Bad’ & “Game of Thrones’ and ‘Boardwalk Empire’ are by far superior.
And while we are on the subject, where is ‘Sons of Anarchy’ and Katey Segal’s nomination?
At least the Emmy academy were intelligent enough to include Game of Thrones & The Big Bang Theory. However, Fringe definitely deserves a spot in the nomination.
