So, there you have it. As far as surprises to me: True Blood getting a nomination for Outstanding Drama, Nurse Jackie picking up a Comedy nod, neither Chandra Wilson or Sandra Oh getting nominated, and so much love for Modern Family and Glee that Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Matthew Morrison and Chris Colfer received nominations. And Tony Shalhoub? Again?!?!
What do you think about the nominations? Who got snubbed? What do you think were surprises? Who are you rooting for? Please leave your comments below. A full list of all the nominees (yes, even Outstanding Hairstyling for a Multi-Camera Series or Special), please see the official Emmy website here. The Emmys will be broadcast live, August 29th at 8:00pm on NBC, hosted by Jimmy Fallon.
In the major categories, Outstanding Drama looks to be among the most competitive, with 'Lost' going head-to-head with fellow cult hit 'True Blood' in a field that also includes 'Breaking Bad,' 'Dexter,' 'Mad Men' and newcomer 'The Good Wife.'

I'm very disappointed that Stana Katic hasn't been nominated for her brilliant performance in "Castle" episodes such as "Sucker Punch" and "A Deadly Game"… I wonder whether anybody from Emmy Academy has been watching "Castle" at all? BTW, they should think about setting up "Dramedy" category next year…
How the heck did Nestor Carbonell (Richard Alpert, "Lost") not get a nom for "Ab Aeterno." Terry O'Quinn totally deserves his nom but Carbonell should have got one before Michael Emerson, and he should also win.Glad to see so much love for "Modern Family."
i am aghast that Stana Katic didn't get nominated!! How can it happen even after her outstanding performances in castle!! couldn't believe it man!! horrible:(
