Emmy

News of the men and women in final contention for the upcoming Emmy awards leaked overnight, and we’ve got the full rundown below.

There are a few glaring omissions, like Henry Ian Cusick, Terry O’Quinn (who may or may not asked for his name to be removed), and Matthew Fox for Lost. And there are more than a few “really?” names on there…Patrick Dempsey? Best actor? I enjoy Grey’s, but I don’t think he’s in his league on that list.

But, there are several names that I love there…John Hamm for ‘Mad Men’, Michael Emerson for ‘Lost’ (I’ve only called this a couple of times), Ted Danson, Zeljko Ivanek and Glenn Close for Damages, and Jack McBrayer for 30 Rock. Could be a good year.
