I would be happy with either Damages or Boston Legal winning. THough for BL I personally liked the episode where Allen represented Shirley whens he wanted to end her father's life

Based on two voters' opinions (at Goldderby), the crowd most definitively loved Boston Legal, House, Damages and Mad Men (all with a high likelihood of being nominated). The fifth slot is less clear - it's between Lost, Grey's and The Wire (with this one being the least likely). The Wire suffered from being the last show to air (it was alphabetical but today is reverse alphabetical so it may be different today) - goes to show how arbitrary it all is.

I guess that was crowd of tasteless morons - not unlike the emmy voters. Why the fuckity fuck would they have to even think to give Lost a nomination. Seriously, best of all of the dramas this year (House being a very close second).

There's a popular vote and a panel vote.

Ugly Betty had some rough patches this season, so hopefully they'll submit good episodes--it was still such a wonderful show.

Meanwhile, that hag, Patricia Heaton, from Raymond won it several times during the same era. Ugh!!! It irks me even more that DH lost out Best Comedy Series to Raymond back in 2005 too! UGH!!!

Mother Fuck that's why Zoobilee Zoo was robbed big time at the Daytime Emmys in the mid 80's.

I remember the British Office either missing five or only airing five episodes on BBC America during a given period so they were ineligible for the Emmys.

Would the Emmys suddenly implode on themselves?

No HIMYM again, though -- are any of them in the supporting category. I guess it'd be kind of hard to call any of that ensemble a leading actor. Alsyon Hannigan should be a lock.
