How are Breaking Bad, The Closer and Leverage Scifi, Fantasy or Horror? Not a complaint, just wondering.
WTF, Doctor Who completely left out? This show should've reaped a huge lot of nominations, for show, David Tennant, Catherine Tate, Lesley Sharp and Alex Kingston as guest actresses. Sharp, especially. Her work in "Midnight" was mind boggling, so good.
Okay, Lindsay, are you forgetting that I was a professional twice over— an analyst and a therapist. The world’s first analrapist.

NO AGAIN.
Damn these awards are a joke. And if someone wants to explain to me how The Closer of all things is classified as sci-fi/fantasy/horror I'd really appreciate it.
Realistically, Heroes should have only received 2 nods; clearly, Bell deserved hers (It's Coming, anyone? and to a lesser extent Eris Quod Sum and Villains), but Cristine Rose got jobbed deluxe. She and not Panettiere should have made the final cut. And no supporting actor noms for the men of BSG? THat's a joke.

Oh wow, Hayden Panettiere got nominated for a best acting award? Yikes.
The eligibility of a lot of these shows is ridiculous, but it is nice to see Kevin Durand's performance as Martin Keamy in Lost get an award nomination.
The lack of "Pushing Daises" and "Doctor Who" among the nominees is glaring, especially when they found room to lavish sloppy wet kisses on the miserable "Heroes." These awards can be worthwhile as an alternative to the mainstream, anti-genre-biased Emmy Awards, but by picking "Heroes" time after time after time, they prove themselves to be just as lazy
"A movie is not good because it arrives at conclusions you share, or bad because it does not. A movie is not about what it is about. It is about how it is about it: about the way it considers its subject matter, and about how its real subject may be quite different from the one it seems to provide." - Roger Ebert, from the introduction to "Awake in the Dark" (2006)
The excessive Heroes love is a bit curious especially since the two best things in the show - Jack Coleman and Christine Rose - were not even nominated.
All of the Lost nominations were great as it could have easily filled every single slot on the BSA list given that Naveen Andrews, Jeremy Davies and Terry O'Quinn were not included.
I'm surprised Battlestar Galactica received so few nominations. Michael Hogan and/or Allesandro Juliani should have been in the BSA list and Richard Hatch should have been in the Guest Performance list. I'm guessing the eligibility period prevented Kate Vernon from being included in the Guest Performance list as well.
FYC: "Up" for Best Picture and Kathryn Bigelow for Best Director
They remembered Jericho! Too bad about no actors though. Lennie James was great.
I wonder if Hewitt is going to win actress again.
Other Good nominees- Elizabeth Mitchell Katee Sackoff -finally Summer Glau Michael Emerson
WILLIAM PETERSEN: Well, this is a shock. The only explanation for this is that somehow in the last year, every one of you tried to act with rubber gloves and tweezers.

You are focusing too much on the science fiction and have too narrow a definition of horror and fantasy.

Sorry no they arent they are the only awards that honour sci/fantasy shows
Olmos, Sckhoff and McDonnell Headey, Dekker and Glau Kyra Sedgwick Paquin
Okay then, as someone else mentioned, why are The Closer, Breaking Bad, etc. nominated? That makes no sense.
Exactly, those shows shouldn't be nominated for this award show. It does make no sense, thus why these awards are silly. It should only be science fiction, fantasy, and horror shows.
We all know this is not an award based on talent or acting when Love Hewitt has one. That is just rediculous. Kyra Sedgwick and The Closer are Sci Fi/Horror???
Um...where the hell is "Medium", Patricia Arquette, Jake Weber, etc.?
Are you watching "Ghost Whisperer"? I don't think so because if you watched it you would have known that she's giving great performance week after week. I have never thought about her as a good actress, but she made me to change my mind. World doesn't end on Patricia Arquette...

Great to see Fox, Lilly, Holloway, Kim, and Mitchell recognized.
Heroes' noms are a joke, especially for Series and Panettiere.
Am I too assume that they considered 24: Redemption Sci-Fi, Fantasy or Horror and not the series?
