  1. @Justin. Sorry for my lack of knowledge. I was just so worked up that I didn’t do my research. I forgot that it had a bigger than usual break from seasons 3 to 4… I totally agree with what you said about these particular awards by the way. Cheers 😉

  4. I hope Fringe can win the Sci-Fi/Fantasy category. It’s a bummer there weren’t more nominations for the show and actors but I’m glad it at least got mentioned. I also wish Supernatural, The Vampire Diaries, Castle and their actors well. If it’s internet based voting then I won’t be surprised if Supernatural wins a few things. But I guess time will tell.

  5. @Sam, these awards are chosen by the public, the same public who have 2 and a half men as the most watched comedy and the cop procedurals dominate the drama category. It is good Breaking Bad is not on this list. Oh and how is BB not getting any love? Cranston has won the Emmy 3 years running, Paul won as well in 2010 and the show was nominated for best drama. The reason there were no Emmy nominations this year is because it aired too late in the year, the just finished 4th season will be considered for the 2012 Emmys.

  9. When did Breaking Bad suddenly fall off the critic’s and the public’s radar? There is no love for that show in any awards these days. It is simply spellbounding to watch.
