I guess it is really a tossup between Grey's & Lost. Hopefully it'll be Lost.

Mad Men, House, Damages and ugh, Boston Legal are in. I think Grey's and LOST both get shut out and The Wire sneaks in.


Okay, Lindsay, are you forgetting that I was a professional twice over— an analyst and a therapist. The world’s first analrapist.

that would be my dream but since the dirty old men of the ATAS (I know its not all of them but it is most of them) wasn't feeling it I think its out, but if that is the case Lost should be nominated in its place.

Those picks look right. I do believe the final slot is between Grey's Anatomy and Lost.

I highly highly doubt it...

I think you are all underestimating Grey's and I agree with Tom on that fact I think it is a shoe in either way.

Hey you!
Posted Hide Post
Even though it seems Grey's Anatomy's episode submission didn't go over very well with the panel, I still think the popular vote will help tremendously. I still think it was ranked high on that ballot regardless whether or not it had less buzz this year.

I'm praying Lost gets nominated in its place, but I won't be shocked if Grey's still ends up getting in. It hasn't been snubbed yet, and Lost has already been snubbed twice.

I'm still predicting Lost, though. I'm probably going to keep it that way until the noms are announced.

I hope Lost is snubbed again. That'd be cool.

Hopefully there will be a suprise come next Thursday morning! If not, then the nominees will seem to be:

House
Boston Legal
Mad Men
Damages
Lost (or Grey's Anatomy)

I think Lost will get in over Grey's b/c the Emmys know when a series is having an off year and tend to have that reflect in their nominations most of the time (ask Heroes who is missing from the Top 10 this year and 24 who didn't make the cut last year)


Emmy FYC:

THE WIRE
Dominic West as "Jimmy" in The Wire
Andre Royo as "Bubbles" in The Wire
Michael K. Williams as "Omar" in The Wire
LOST
Yunjin Kim as "Sun" on LOST
Henry Ian Cusick as "Desmond" in LOST
FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS
Connie Britton as "Tami" in Friday Night Lights
MAD MEN
Jon Hamm as "Don" in Mad Men
Christina Hendricks as "Joan" in Mad Men
Vincent Kartheiser as "Pete" in Mad Men

Locks: Mad Men, Damages, Boston Legal
Almost lock: House

It all comes down to Lost vs Grey's Anatomy.

I think it's pure wishful thinking not to predict Grey's for a nomination.

I bet it finished #1 in the popular vote. Grey's isn't like Desperate Housewives. It is still a water cooler show and it's been nominated for Drama Series the past two years. Grey's is also still getting Globe and SAG nods. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Grey's Anatomy win this year. You guys have to keep in mind that there is still a huge bias against cable shows in the top categories. Only Sex and the City and The Sopranos have managed to win. I think Mad Men and Damages will surely get the nomination, but I'm betting one of the network shows (Boston Legal, Grey's Anatomy) will probably take the Emmy.

Both top tens look similar and is so helpful for those of us way behind in our viewing.
I'm happy to see The Tudors making the list, although, it doesnt look like it'll make top five. The agreement on episode 205, is interesting.

I wouldn't be surprised if Grey's Anatomy placed a little lower than first. Still top five, but not number one. This was just a different season. A lot of people were still buzzing about the show, but not in the most positive light aside from a few good performances.

Iff a network show were to take it this year, I'd bet on House.

I think the nominee's will be:

"Grey's Anatomy"
"Mad Men"
"Boston Legal"
"Damages"
"Lost"

Somehow I just have a feeling that House is going to just barely miss the boat on this one.

Regardless of how good people think Lost's submission is, "Grey's" is still more accessible to a first time viewer.



Emmy FYC:
Julia Louis-Dreyfus, The New Adventures Of Old Christine

Choose QUALITY over buzz.

House has the procedural going for it I think your losing it a little if you think they will go for Lost over this.
