 It’s Emmy nomination day! Will “24,” which won the top drama Emmy last year, find itself shut out? What about “Desperate Housewives”? Have Emmy voters wised up the idea that it’s not a comedy? Or good? I have some confidence that “The Sopranos” and “Lost” and “House” and “The Office” and “30 Rock” and “Ugly Betty” and “Two and a Half Men” will do just fine this go-round. “Heroes” might make out OK. So might “Friday Night Lights.” But what of “Battlestar Galactica” and “Veronica Mars” and “Rome” and “The Wire”? Can we assume that Emmy will treat these amazing series rather less well? The nominations get announced Thursday morning at 5:40 a.m. Pacific Time. If I fall asleep before then, I encourage the talkbackers to post the nominations and/or tinyurls linking to those nominations. Eventually I will wake and paste them into the main article. i think if anyone from the show should get nominated it should be Michael Hogan. UPDATED!! Nothing for "The Wire." Nothing for "Veronica Mars." Nothing for "Brotherhood." "Rescue Me" got an actor nom for Denis Leary. "The Riches" got an actress nom for Minnie Driver. Tina Fey, who already owns an Emmy statue and three previous Emmy nominations for writing "SNL," got new noms for acting AND writing for "30 Rock." "24" picked up noms for Kiefer Sutherland, Jean Smart, score, sound editing, sound mixing and stunts. "Dexter" picked up noms for main title design, title theme music, and editing. "Friday Night Lights" picked up noms for directing and casting. "Rome" picked up noms for music, visual effects, art direction, cinematography, costumes, makeup and hair. "Battlestar Galactica" picked up noms for writing, directing, visual effects and sound editing. Some key categories: OUTSTANDING DRAMA Boston Legal Grey's Anatomy Heroes House The Sopranos OUTSTANDING COMEDY Entourage The Office 30 Rock 2 1/2 Men Ugly Betty WRITING - DRAMA Battlestar Galactica • Occupation/Precipice Lost • Through The Looking Glass The Sopranos • Kennedy And Heidi The Sopranos • The Second Coming The Sopranos • Made In America WRITING - COMEDY 30 Rock • Jack-Tor 30 Rock • Tracy Does Conan Extras • Daniel Radcliffe The Office • Gay Witch Hunt The Office • The Negotiation WRITING - VARIETY, MUSIC OR COMEDY Late Night With Conan O'Brien Late Show With David Letterman Real Time With Bill Maher The Colbert Report The Daily Show With John Stewart ACTOR - DRAMA James Gandolfini Hugh Laurie Denis Leary James Spader Kiefer Sutherland ACTRESS - DRAMA Patricia Arquette Minnie Driver Edie Falco Sally Field Mariska Hartigay Kyra Sedgwick SUPPORTING ACTOR - DRAMA Michael Emerson Michael Imperioli T.R.

The answer is 'no.' Sorry to dash hopes, but according to reports, the show was not a finalist for consideration in either Best Drama, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, or Best Supporting Actress. I believe at this time the only hope we have is for Mary McDonnell.
One would hope it will at least get nominations in the visual effects category. They do have one of those, don't they? |

Directing and Writing are nice. If the show doesn't win for Visual Effects for Exodus II, something's wrong.

Very interesting, when did a scifi show get four EMMY nominations the last time(if ever)?
I've heard statements that the one Peabody award was worth more than any Emmy they would ever get. But it's clearly an event with penetration directly into sales. I mean, when did you last see a DVD add with a 'won one Peabody' on the front? |

Well, it'd be nice to see Ron pick up an emmy. Good to see Exodus II getting some recognition.
Regardless, across the third season, some truly award winning moments. Good luck Sci-fi people ! |

However he is directly nominated for Outstanding Writing. Things are definitely leaning towards The Sopranos on that one since they have 3 of the 5 nominations...

A couple years ago, SciFi Channel had 4 out of the 5 nominations for Special Effects, but lost to, errr.... LOST. -Nuttzy -------------------- SpellingCow - spell check as you type on any web page!

Darn, Heroes got 8 nominations ... not fair.
But cool though that quite scifi heavy shows seem to be picking up pace in this arena. Lets restate the question, when did a space opera get four nominations the last time?  |

Writing and Directing Emmy nominations are awesome. Has BSG gotten any before?
