Emmy Nominations Announced
NBC’s 30 Rock and AMC’s Mad Men led all series at the 60th annual Primetime Emmy nominations, announced this morning by Pushing Daisies‘ Kristin Chenoweth and How I Met Your Mother‘s Neil Patrick Harris (both Emmy nominees themselves this year). Men‘s 16 nominations led all drama series and included nods for outstanding drama series and a best actor nod for John Hamm, while 30 Rock led all comedies with 17 nominations, including outstanding comedy series and actor nods for Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin. Meanwhile, HBO’s historical miniseries John Adams led all nominees with a total of 23 nods, including a best actor nomination for Paul Giamatti (pictured). My biggest gripe? That “The Wire,” which has been the best drama on television for the past five years, once again was overlooked.
