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
BEST REALITY COMPETITION HOST - Jeff Probst, Survivor

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.

As you may or may not already know, the 60th Primetime Emmy Awards are tomorrow at 8pm ET/5pm PT on ABC.

There are a lot of great shows and actors nominated for the many categories, but here are a few selections that I think should be made. Feel free to agree/disagree in the comments!

The Emmys are another prestigious award that TV shows and series can earn - and often the winners are well deserving of the award. After watching the awards every year, I end up seeing shows that were winners just to see if I liked them.

Enough jabber, on to the predictions!

Outstanding Comedy Series

Out of all five shows, I would have to pick The Office as the best comedy series for the Emmy. Just two years ago, the series picked up the same award (2006 Outstanding Comedy Series) and I think that it deserves an encore this year.

Outstanding Drama Series

I am liking House, M.D. as the winner, but it faces stiff competition, especially from LOST, which would also be a good pick for this award.
