NPH!! Thank God. In such a broad category, I was worried he would be left off. I too would have loved to see Pushing Dasies and Galacatica get some attention, as well as Friday Night Lights.

I agree with Crystal. Why isn't Kenneth from 30 Rock nominated for supporting actor in a comedy? Or the guy who plays Andy in Weeds? Mary Louise Parker may be great, but that show has a ton of awesome characters as well that seem deserving of some award goodness.

Anna Paquin is so bad on True Blood I can't even articulate it. The show is fair, but I am astounded anyone would nominate her for an award. If anyone on the show does deserve a nomination, it's Nelsan Ellis (Lafayette).

That is so true, my mouth dropped after reading she got nominated. I love the show but I extremely dislike her as Sookie and as an actress. I think she was nominated b/c of her Oscar (100 years ago) for "The Piano." And I agree, if anyone deserves to be singled out it's Nelsan Ellis as Lafayette

I was disappointed that Phylicia Rashad wasn't nominated for "A Rasin in the Sun".

I am glad that The Offie, Mad Men and True Blood were all nominated. However, I so agree about Anna Paquin. Nelsan Ellis (Lafayette) is, hands down, the best actor on that show. I so wish he would've gotten a nom, but with such a messed up category, I can see how he was left out.

Yeah for Jon Hamm, January Jones and of course, Neil Patrick Harris. That man can do no wrong in my book.

My main gripe is with all the cable shows getting noms over the network shows. Really discourages the networks from giving a scripted show a chance and why we'll get Jay Leno in prime time five days a week.

I'm sure the cable shows are fine shows, but since I don't pay for HBO at $22.00 a month, I don't watch these shows.

I was just coming back here to say: Generation Kill should've been on there somewhere!

Alexander Skarsgård was amazing as Brad Colbert. This is just another reason why the Globes should have seperate Supporting actor/actress categories for TV movies/mini-series, comedies and dramas.

I realize why people feel like network TV gets shafted, but I still wish a brilliant mini-series like GK got recognition.

Do FX shows even considered anymore?? Michael Chiklis, Walton Goggins and CCH Pounder all did a phenominal job in the final season. Like another poster said, same old shtuff.

Kevin Connolly ? ? ? Seriously ? I;m happy for True blood tho

Sounds like someone is a BIG Tony Shaloub fan.

I know that until there's a "teenage drama" category there will never be any nods for Gossip Girl or shows of its ilk, but dayum, Meester/Westwick have been blowing it up of late. The last episode was bananas.

I admit I don't watch Entourage anymore, but since when is Kevin Connolly in a lead part?

I tried to like Battlestar Galactica, but I find it gloomy, one-note, and the characters uninteresting. And they wear their tank tops backwards. Sorry!! Just can't get with that show.

These award shows are pretty lame. They are very conservative, in that they just repeat and repeat the same noms (Monk, Entourage). What do Jeremy Piven and Tony Shalhoub have on everybody in Hollywood? I've NEVER liked Piven in anything, but he is always getting noms and awards. Shalhoub was good years ago in "Wings" but the Monk character is so one-note and trivializes mental illness, IMO.

Tooo much love for Entourage. Ugh. Not very exciting nominations. But it's still my favourite awards show to watch because everybody seems drunk.

Rooting for 30 Rock to sweep! Alec deserves the globe after last night's Christmas Special episode.

Why no nom for Generation Kill? It was amazing (and Jacob's recaps were awesome to boot). Alex Skarsgard's eyes alone should have been nominated for Best Supporting.

What a yawn-inducing list. Basically the same one from last year or the year before that. Some nominations just seem to be going through the motion of getting nominated.

Oh, and did I mention the shame the HFPA should feel for leaving out Leighton Meester?
No?

Well, consider it mentioned now.

So once again the Golden Globes refuse to acknowledge that Jensen Ackles, who's amazing normally but has had a stellar year on Supernatural, exists? I'll not be watching again.

I can't believe that Michael Chiklis and Walter Goggins and CCH Pounder weren't nominated for The Shield. They were both amazing during the final episodes. The Shield itself should have been nominated as well.

Wait....they want to consider Melissa George, but no Kristin Chenowith?? WTF?

No love for Breaking Bad or Bryan Cranston (who is brilliant in the role of Walter White)?

Seconding the f-up omission of The Shield, The Wire, and Generation Kill and not nominating Mia Wasikowska over Melissa George. For shame.

I hate to say this because I adored her in Will & Grace, but I can't STAND Debra Messing in The Starter Wife. Never has a person SHRIEKED so much. What is with all the SHRIEKING??? Is it supposed to be girlish and attractive? PLEASE stop the shrieking. Even the advertisements for the show are just a montage of Messing screaming and shrieking. STOP!!! Please?

When i first saw True Blood, I was thrown by Anna Paquin's performance. Her Sookie is definitely different from the character in the book, but they have taken liberties with many things from the books. Dramatically it may work better to alter Sookie's character for television. I don't think that means that Paquin's not very good, but that the script and direction may require a different type of Sookie than the readers have grown used to. The book's Sookie is a cooler customer, yes, but that gives TV-Sookie space to grow over the seasons. Perhaps this will make for a more satisfying character arc than if they had made no alterations. Television is a different medium.

I've been liking Laura's episodes fine on "In Treatment", though I will admit that the girl who plays Sophie is incredible for her age. I don't remember seeing Melissa George in anything prior to this series, so I have no previous bias. I'd rather either of those two win out over Diane Wiest though, I don't enjoy most of Gina's sessions with Paul and I don't think she's been getting particularly meaty material to sink her teeth into. I'm a couple weeks away from being done with the repeats of this series and I'm loving it a lot. I still love Dexter and a few other cable shows, but I think In Treatment was my favorite this year (I haven't seen The Shield since Season 4 and I've never seen The Wire, The Tudors, or Mad Men, so I'm not up on ALL cable dramas. Also not sure if I'll ever get around to watching beyond the first seasons of Rescue Me and Nip/Tuck, which I watched back when their first seasons came out on DVD).

I'm glad True Blood got nominated. It was consistently funny, well-acted, and compelling. The pilot wasn't all that great, but it grew into something pretty amazing, IMO. It's not a Buffy rip-off like someone said previously, it's completely different in tone, overall structure, and what it seems to be going for. That doesn't diminish that Joss Whedon series unfortunately never getting nominated beyond I think a writing category one year (maybe make-up too?), but True Blood is definitely deserving. True that someone else should've been nominated in the acting category though. For female, Rutina Wesley, who plays Tara. Male ? I'd give it to Ryan Kwanten as Jason Stackhouse or the dude playing Lafayette, easy. I have a feeling Sam and Bill's big moments/season are yet to come.

Entourage enjoyed its best year in a while. It IS a little tiresome to see it nominated all the time, but Season 5 was worthy, IMO. I'm glad Kevin Connely's getting some recognition. For all the laughs Turtle, Drama, and Ari bring to the table, Eric is the unsung hero of the series and arguably the most compelling character at times. Sure, it's a pretty shallow comedy at times about spoiled adolescent-types, but it's not ALWAYS that.

Generation Kill--ugly snub.

So's Brotherhood, IMO.

Lost's best season (IMO) could've used some recognition, rather than all the heaps of undeserved praise it got in its initial season when it was still largely unproven, IMO, aside from the talents of a few of its cast members.

Hugh Laurie has never won! I thinks its high time.

I, too, was extremely disappointed not to see Phylicia Rashad's name on the list for Best Actress in a Mini-Series or Television Movie. She was superlative in "A Raisin in the Sun." It is almost sacrilege she isn't on the list. I also think it is a crying shame that Kristin Chenoweth wasn't noticed for her wonderful work on the underappreciated (and unjustly un-nominated) "Pushing Daisies." (in fact, any actor on that show should have been up for consideration). Pitiful!

I think NCIS should be nominated for something. I mean, if people were to sit down and watch it, they would see that it is completly different from other crime/forensic shows like CSI. NCIS actually takes the time to develop the characters personalities and they are able to actually make dialouge that can actually be funny and not e a corny one-liner.

where the hell is DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES?????? HOW CAN IT NOT BE NOMINATTED ITS THE BEST SHOW ON TV??!!! WTF I CNT BELIEVE IT AND HOW CAN THEY NOT HAVE NOMINATED and DANA DELANY??? how can she not have been nominated as the devious Katherine Mayfair ?????
