A Shorter Post About SAG

The Screen Actor's Guild Awards nominations were announced, and unlike the Golden Globes, they will not be picketed by the Writer's Guild. Basically, for the movie noms, I haven't seen a lot of them, so I'm not really pulling for anyone with a few exceptions. ELLEN PAGE ("Juno") FOR LEADING ACTRESS!!! Now that I got that out of the way, I also think "Hairspray" should win for cast ensemble in a movie.



Television: Again, I'm a little sad that none of the "Heroes" actors got any. Same with "Pushing Daisies", "24", and "Desperate Housewives". I'm def rooting for Ricky Gervais ("Extras") for leading male in a comedy (PS. why hasn't Ashley Jensen been getting any nominations for "Extras"??). Female in a comedy is again difficult. I think I can say that I'd be fine if either America Ferrera or Christina Applegate lost, but I can't decide between Mary-Louise Parker ("Weeds") and Vanessa Williams ("Ugly Betty"). I probably want Parker to win a little more, but they both def deserve to win. "Grey's Anatomy"'s only nomination is for Drama series ensemble (I hope they win). Comedy ensemble pits "Desperate Housewives" and "Ugly Betty" against eachother, and I think the latter deserves it a little more (sorry Eva).

Finally, for stunt ensemble for a movie, it's either "300", "Bourne Ultimatum", or "Pirates 3". I definitely have soft spot for "Bourne" though. And lastly, stunt ensemble for a TV show, "24" or "Heroes" ("HEROES"!!!!).

It wasn't that short, was it?
