Golden Globe Awards Nominations Announced

Golden Globe AwardsYesterday the Screen Actors Guild Award nominations were announced and today we have the Golden Globe Awards as this season of glitzy ceremonies and parties kicks off.

After yesterday's omission from the SAG awards Claire Danes has been nominated for Homeland; will she manage to repeat her previous wins for last year's Temple Grandin or her 1995 Golden Globe for My So-Called Life? Homeland also scored nods for Damien Lewis and for best drama. One obvious snub is Breaking Bad which has not been nominated in the drama series category and only picks up one nomination for Bryan Cranston.

    Choosing American Horror Story over Breaking Bad is unforgivable. Really. The two shows aren't anywhere close in terms of quality.
