Emmys 2010

[Abraham Smashington]

The Emmys are horseshit. Apparently they hate FX series and just put Damages in every year as a token so they don't have to acknowledge the others, because they way they ignored The Shield after the first season and the way they're ignoring Sons of Anarchy (seriously, no nom for Katey Segal?) and Justified (Why do you hate the Goggins so, Emmys?) gives them zero credibility in my eyes. Breaking Bad needs to sweep.

Totally true. Segal brought it fucking hard on the last season of Sons. And Justified should have gotten a nod for Goggins (love that they kept him on).

[Ed Hocken]

Shake's right, not one damn thing for Goggins for his work in the last season of The Shield.

[Martin]

wanna now why the Emmy blows harder than Paris Hilton wanting attention?

IGNORING THE WIRE. FOR 5 YEARS.

It's easy to say Cranston is putting on better performances because he is more over the top, emotive, and has more OH SHIT kind of moments. Hamm's performance/character is closed off, cold, and inside of himself. I can definitely see enjoying Cranston more, but I wouldn't try to compare their acting performance side by side at all.

[Ed Hocken]

I see Billy knows what I'm talking about.

And see, I like shit like that. It's why I like Cranston as an actor so much. Hell in the last episode of Season 3,

  Spoiler: Season finale spoilers 

he went from 'simpering coward' to 'magnificent bastard' in just under 2 sentences.

It takes skill to pull of a tonal shift like that.

Also, Giancarlo Esposito should have gotten Breaking Bad a second 'Supporting Actor' nod. His Gustavo Fring is one of the most menacing heavies I've seen on TV in awhile, and he plays him with an almost alien coolness.

[Abraham Smashington]

Yep. Hamm just leaves me cold. I was always a Sal man anyways.

Speaking with slight bit of inside knowledge, FX knows they get fucked at Awards Shows.

They can't explain, no one else can explain it. The only shows they've had to actually show place or win at the Emmy Awards or any major offering have been from the stuff they co-run with Sony.

Basically, if you're not Damages or Rescue Me...The Emmys doesn't want to have shit to do with you at FX.

So the Emmys aren't just run by tasteless fucks, now there's a conspiracy too?

It's all political. They view FX as being a step above Spike which is shit, but they do it.

I guess you've got to be a bunch of pricks to win anything. Out of all the TV networks/channels, FX are always the nicest people.

They also don't have the budgets alloted to pimp their shows. SONY puts up the cash for Rescue Me and Damages.

FX gets whatever money is left over from pimping FOX shows.

Hey, whatever keeps them pumping out the quality.

I am kinda glad 'Archer' is getting some acknowledgment of existence from the Emmys.

That was a fucking fluke. An impressive fluke, but one nonetheless.

On the animated subject, I'm just glad that they're realizing Adult Swim actually exists.

Robot Chicken pulling their first Emmy win was pretty impressive.

[Nathan]

Short was chilling on Damages.

[Howard]

I'm watching the pre-show. Why yes, I am gay.
