All the cool kids are doing it, so I'm back for another year. And for those who want to bitch about your favorite show being completely shutout(I'm looking at you DH and Grey's fanboys), I don't watch either show anymore and even if I did, I doubt anyone would make my list. So with that, we'll get started. Any feedback, positive or negative, is fine. I'm a big boy, I can take it and it's not my fault if you have crap taste in tv and don't agree with me. Winners will be announced sometime in the next few weeks.

Where are "The L Word" and its ladies? Okey, I can forgive you that. Oh, and Amy Pietz went to supprting category, so if you are following Emmy rules, yo ushould put her there (just like you put Connie Britton). Oh, and I just saw that you're a fan of "Doctor Who". I have a question. Do you give your wins to Eccleston, Tennat or wonderful Piper? I'm thinking about giving wins to Eccleston and Tennant (for his first season ont he show) and I gave two Emmys Billie Piper for Best Leading Actress (she was mindblowing in "Doomsday" episode). She was the best assistant that Doctor could ever had.

Quite a few of my favorite shows didn't make the cut. The L Word was one of them. So was Big Love. I had to draw the line somewhere otherwise these lists would have 10-15 nominees each. I already felt bad about extending some to 7.
Pietz went supporting, but I had her lead before the official list came out and I just didn't feel like changing it.
Well, Tennant is the only one eligible for Doctor Who out of those 3, cause Eccleston hasn't been on since season 1(this is season 4) and Piper left after season 2(though she had a brief cameo in season 4). I miss Piper, though Catherine Tate(who I've nominated this year) has been doing a terrific job as the new assistant. Tennant has been Emmy worthy since he started and this is the 2nd year in a row he's made my list.

As always, great list dude! This is one set of awards I wanna check out each year 'cos nobody watches as much TV as you do. And I see some Brits here but no "Life on Mars", don't hold it off for the David E.Kelley version 'cos the original series is awesome. Otherwise, great nominations all around especially those for the CW newbies.

Life on Mars made it last year but was not eligible this year because I watched the final season when it aired overseas, which was February-April 07. I don't know when it aired over here, but I included season 2 with last years nominations.

Excellent set of nominees. I especially love the inclusion of "Aliens in America", by far one of the best and most underrated shows of the year.
Also love the Catherine Tate mention. I was somewhat skeptical when it was announced she was joining the show cause I found Donna to be a bit annoying in the christmas special, but I'm glad to say she's proving me wrong.
