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. 😉

That’s the very same thoughts I had. This was a disappointing year for the Emmys, methinks.
…no Hugh Laurie?
WHY? :'(
