Emmy Nominations (2013)

Recommended Posts



Tough to predict a drama winner this year.

 

I stopped watching Mad Men three seasons ago. I'd say it was the frontrunner, but alot of the buzz from this season cited it was a decline in quality from the one previous, and if that one didn't win....

 

Then again, as a huge Homeland fan, even I can admit this season was a dramatic drop off from season one. Season one was one of the most brilliant things I've ever seen on TV, but this season just felt like a good season of 24 (the second half of it at least).

 

I'm catching up on Breaking Bad, and I'm only through two seasons and change, but holy shit. This show is genius. I fully understand the hype. If this season was as good as season 2, it deserves the win. But still, it's a half season in a competitive year with the final season coming up. Might have to wait.

 

Dowton Abbey is a sensation that will get nominated always but won't ever win the big one, and rightfully so. Don't get the hype.

 

House of Cards is just happy to be here this year. As a political communication major going to school in D.C., I can't help but say that, against all odds, this show is a little overrated.

 

With all that said, maybe my favorite show, Game of Thrones, actually has a legit shot this year. I'd be more confident if NCW had rightfully picked up a nom, but my baby boo Clarke did to make up for it. It has the least going against it- it was an improvement over last season, it isn't close to the finale, and it has experience at this point. It also had the most talked about moment on scripted TV in years this seasons. It is the highest rated and most popular of the shows nominated. Any chance it does it?

I'd still like for BB or MM to win it. Homeland was meh aside from a few episodes (Q&A, which they submitted), GOT had the brilliance of the RW, but don't think it deserves it overall, Downton's good, but not worthy enough for a win. I love HOC, but I know it doesn't have a chance. I'd give the slight edge to MM simply because it's a whole season.

Now that I'm actually watching some of the TV comedy this year, holy hell the Emmys are shit. Parks and Rec doesn't get a Comedy nomination but some of that other crap does? I want to be excited for all the Louie nods but I know none of them will win. If Louis CK gets beat by that fuck Jim Parsons...

I don't have HBO so I have not seen any of their shows except maybe something on a free weekend.  Which would explain the Phil Spector choices.

Their comedy shit has always been awful. This year is something of an improvement. Louis CK was nominated something like 9 times this year, so I think he's bound to win a couple like he did last year.

It's too bad for all these great supporting characters in Breaking Bad. They give great, great performances in their farewell seasons and Aaron Paul is still somehow better. I thought Banks was wonderful in "Say My Name" (which I have to imagine will be his submission) but I can't honestly say it beats Jesse's breakdown in "Madrigal", which was an award winning performance if you ask me.

i'm even more happy to see emilia clarke nominated GO KHALEESI DAENERYS "STORMBORN" TARGARYEN WOOHOO

 

i'll be rooting for GOT to win best drama 

 

don't care about comedies category as the only one i've seen episodes from is girls on hbo and i'm still stuck on ep3 of s01

 

bryan cranston for best actor

 

the only really good thing about the emmys is the miniseries category, i love the miniseries format , they bring stories you wouldnt know about otherwise , hbo in the lead 

 

i see bobby cannavale has 2 noms for different performances congrats to him , i hated him in boardwalk empire which means he did a great job as his character was despicable 

 

congrats to zachary quinto also for his nom in sup actor category for miniseries

 

diana rigg for GOT , she did steal every scene she was in, too bad charles dance didnt get a nom maybe next season

Except for Giancarlo Esposito, he was robbed.

They introduced Dean Norris on stage as "From 'Under The Dome' Dean Norris". Seriously? I realize this is on CBS, but I really doubt if most of the viewers recognize him from "Under the Dome". Hell, show a picture of him and most people will automatically go Hank Schrader.
