The one snub I have the most problem with is Mary McDonnell (Battlestar Galactica) for best supporting actress. She was just awesome this season (& in the 1st as well) and it's such a shame shows like BSG and their actors don't get recognized. The show took a dip in the 2nd half of the season (2.5) so I don't have a problem with it being left off the list. It should have won an emmy for it's 1st season though.
Regarding other shows, while I love 24 (have since Day 1 Hour 1), it can't come close to BSG and while this season was definitely one of the funnest, just isn't close in terms of quality. However I was really happy Jean Smart got nominated for 24 as she was just fantastic this season and if Mary can't win (or nominated for that matter) I really hope she does.
While I enjoy House, it shouldn't win either for best drama. They've all been stand alone eps, no season long story lines (that have really mattered IMO). And it's all the same formula: someone gets sick, they think they figure out what the problem is, oh my, they didn't get it right, comes down to the last minute and then they save him/her. However, I thought Hugh Laurie should have been nominated for best actor. He is great. I really hope though Dennis Leary wins for Rescue Me, that should have been nominated for best drama series as well.
I'm so glad The Office (it better win) got nominated and Steve Carell did as well. He and the show is just awesome. By far the best sitcom on TV hands down. I'm disappointed Jenna Fischer didn't get nominated, she should have for actress in a comedy series. I'm very disappointed Entourage didn't get nominated, as that's just as bit as good as The Office is. And Jeremy Piven is just awesome as Ari, he should have been nominated as well.
Stupid Emmy's. They never can get anything right can they? This is why I don't pay attention to award shows, they're all politics. Mary McDonnell is the biggest snub in the enteries, IMO.
