2008 Emmy results

Well, I had made some predictions as to who and what would win in some selected categories of the 2008 Primetime Emmy Awards, but boy was I wrong! ;(
Here’s the actual results. Compare them to my prediction (but don’t make fun of me!
)
The Winners:
BEST DRAMA SERIES - Mad Men
BEST LEAD ACTOR - Bryan Cranston, Breaking Bad
BEST LEAD ACTRESS, DRAMA - Glenn Close, Damages
BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR, DRAMA - Zeljko Ivanek, Damages
BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS, DRAMA - Dianne Wiest, In Treatment
BEST COMEDY SERIES - 30 Rock
BEST LEAD ACTOR, COMEDY - Alec Baldwin, 30 Rock
BEST LEAD ACTRESS, COMEDY - Tina Fey, “30 Rock
BEST SUPPPORTING ACTOR, COMEDY - Jeremy Piven, Entourage
BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS, COMEDY - Jean Smart, Samantha Who?
BEST LEAD ACTOR, MINISERIES OR TV MOVIE - Paul Giamatti, John Adams
BEST LEAD ACTRESS, MINISERIES OR TV MOVIE - Laura Linney, John Adams
BEST VARIETY, MUSIC OR COMEDY SERIES - The Daily Show With Jon Stewart
BEST REALITY PROGRAM - Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List
BEST REALITY COMPETITION PROGRAM - The Amazing Race

The only gripe I had was the Best Comedy Series award, which I really believed The Office should have one - I have never really loved 30 Rock like I love The Office. Oh well, that’s Hollywood for ya.

That’s the very same thoughts I had. This was a disappointing year for the Emmys, methinks.
