More on Emmy Shortlists! (UPDATED!)

Hey, I just found this website that had a lot of the Emmy Shortlists (meaning the top 10 or 11 that will be narrowed down to 5).

I'll edit this post later with my opinions, but for now I just wanted to give you the link!!

UPDATED: I already reviewed the Shortlists for Drama and Comedy series, but you can find the rest of my opinons after the jump!


Best Drama Actor: I have to admit that I don't watch the majority of the TV shows that are nominated in the Drama categories, so the only one in this category I would really be rooting for in Patrick Dempsey (Grey's Anatomy). MIA (Missing in action): Bill Paxton (Big Love) and Christopher Meloni (SVU) (who never gets nominated).

Best Drama Actress: I would have to root for either Patricia Arquette (Medium) or Jeanne Tripplehorn (Big Love). While I do also like Mariska Hargitay (SVU), I definitely don't think she is necessarily any better that Christopher Meloni. MIA: The other actresses from Big Love: Ginnifer Goodwin and especially Chole Sevigny (who is just as good if not better than Jeanne).

Best Supporting Drama Actor: I would vote for either Bruce Dern (Big Love), T.R. Knight (Grey's Anatomy), or Jake Weber (Medium). I really hope Jake gets nominated just because he never does, but if I had to pick a favorite it would be T.R. MIA: Donald Sutherland (Dirty Sexy Money), Masi Oka and Milo Ventimiglia (Heroes).

Best Supporting Drama Actress: My choices for 4 of the nominees would be Jill Clayburgh (Dirty Sexy Money), S. Epatha Merkerson (Law and Order), Sandra Oh and Chandra Wilson (Grey's Anatomy). The fifth can be whoever. I definitely want Chandra Wilson to win because her character brings so much to the show and she is underappreciated as an actress. MIA: Michelle Trachtenberg (Gossip Girl), Hayden Panettiere (Heroes), Amanda Seyfried (Big Love), Sarah Ramirez (Grey's Anatomy), and Katherine Heigl (Grey's Anatomy) (I'm kidding).

Best Comedy Actor: So the list isn't complete, but from what's there, I would definitely pick Lee Pace (Pushing Daisies) for the win. Of the options Gold Derby gives for possible nominees, the only one I watch is Zach Braff (Scrubs), but I really don't think he'll be nominated.

Best Comedy Actress: Wow, there are 7 in this category that I would want to be nominated. (AHH!!!) Well, for the 5 nominated actresses I would pick Marcia Cross (Desperate Housewives), Anna Friel (Pushing Daisies), Felicity Huffman (Desperate Housewives), Mary-Louise Parker (Weeds), and Eva Longoria Parker (Desperate Housewives). My next choice for nomination would be Christina Applegate (Samantha Who?) and then America Ferrera (Ugly Betty). I really couldn't decide between Eva and Christina. I love Eva, which is why I picked her ultimately. I would definitely pick Mary-Louise Parker to win this category. MIA: Teri Hatcher (the only missing Desperate Housewives).

Best Supporting Comedy Actor: Again, no shows I really watch in this group, except for 1. So, I would have to say that Justin Kirk (Weeds) should definitely win. MIA: Chi McBride (Pushing Daisies), Michael Urie (Ugly Betty), and Doug Savant (Desperate Housewives).

Best Supporting Comedy Actress: In this category, I think that the 5 of the nominees should be Kristin Chenoweth (Pushing Daisies), Judith Light (Ugly Betty), Elizabeth Perkins (Weeds), Jean Smart (Samantha Who?), and Vanessa Williams (Ugly Betty). For me, it would be down between Kristin and Elizabeth, but I'll have to pick Elizabeth Perkins in the end. MIA: Dana Delany and Nicollette Sheridan (Desperate Housewives), Sarah Chalke (Scrubs), Becki Newton and Ashley Jensen (Ugly Betty), Swoosie Kurtz (Pushing Daisies), and Jennifer Esposito (Samantha Who?).

I'm not going to go into the Guests, but here are the direct links:
