So if could have my way LOST would win for drama (I’d also be happy if Mad Men won) then Modern Family for comedy and GLEE for best new show. Or GLEE could just win everything. It is just that good.
I AGREE WITH THIS COMMENT 100%
Wow, my favorite shows being recognized. Love it!
SOO happy for MODERN FAMILY and GLEE!!
Dexter wins! If only for the outstanding work of John Lithgow. He made this season brilliant.
Wow, that’s a pretty fantastic list of TV series. Though I’m not a huge fan of Glee or The Good Wife, they are still solid shows.
My picks would be Lost for drama, Curb Your Enthusiasm for comedy, and Modern Family for best new show.
Dexter and Glee all the way. Dexter deserve as many awards as it can garner. As for Glee, the time I spend watching that show is always a happy time during the week.
Yay Friday Night Lights! Glad to see that organizations other than the Emmys haven’t forgotten about my favorite show.
Awesome. I hope Dexter or Lost wins!!
Lost for drama – no contest there.
Yipee!!! Glad to see LOST getting another chance to win an award…come on, voters, show the love and give LOST a Writers Guild Award. The show is so super well written!
Friday Night Lights for drama, Modern Family for comedy, and Nurse Jackie for new.
Is this based on the entire season, or one particular episode I(similar to the emmys)? Would be hard to beat the season finales of Made Men or Dexter. And i say this as a Lost fanatic. Glee and Modern family should be a lock for best comedy AND best new show…they can split the categories.
Dexter for best drama, Modern Family for best comedy and best new show. I hear good things about the Good Wife and Nurse Jackie, though.
Glee has atrocious writing.
The fact that every TV awards show ignores It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia is a travesty. That is far and away the funniest show on television. In a side note: very happy for Glee.
