Television
Emmy nominations
20 July 2009
Last week, the following shows were nominated for the major award Outstanding Drama Series: Big Love, Breaking Bad, Damages, Dexter, House, Lost, Mad Men. These are all good shows, but nobody is pointing out that there were no nominations in the second half of the alphabet. Conspiracy! Zedists!
Okay, seriously. Damages, House and Mad Men shouldn’t win because of the simple fact that for all of them, the previous season was better. Dropping a notch rules you out in my book, even if still very good. Lost? Please.
That leaves Big Love, Breaking Bad and Dexter. All so good! I can’t choose! Better go do some more “research.” Where’s the remote?
