yay LOST got nominated but damn Evangeline got nominated too. I guess all the crying worked . I think Mathew Fox should have been nominated too if all they were going on was crying lol

Don’t get me wrong I love evangeline but i mean damn only her? There are so many other great actors on that show I think um michael emerson the guy who plays ben should have been nominated

I-w-o Jima.

I’m glad Evangeline was nominated, along with Lost, but I too agree that Matthew Fox, Michael Emerson, and Terry O’Quinn were completely snubbed. I don’t think Evi will win, but I’m glad she’s getting recognition.

What about Jaime Pressley and the guy that plays Randy on My Name is Earl? They are both absolutely hilarious!!! And God bless Peter Boyle’s soul. He was wonderful!

When it comes to the integrity and devotion of actors and actresses, I’m really sad to see prestigous award shows like the Globes and Oscars overshadow much better and deserving actors and actresses. Either being bribed or threatened, it’s a farce to award overly hyped individuals just because of thier previous stardom. I believe we the public choose the REAL winners and should suffice to rule out certain people. Unfortunately, I think there are much more better actors and actresses out there, but again who will listen to me…I’m just another viewer watching the tube like you!
