Golden Globe Nominees: Best Supporting Actress in a Television Series

The nominees:
RACHEL GRIFFITHS, BROTHERS & SISTERS
ANNA PAQUIN, BURY MY HEART AT WOUNDED KNEE

ROSE BYRNE, DAMAGES
KATHERINE HEIGL, GREY'S ANATOMY
SAMANTHA MORTON, LONGFORD
JAIME PRESSLY, MY NAME IS EARL

My predictions: A grand 0/6, figuring Morton would be promoted to lead and choosing instead Elizabeth Mitchell, Jenna Fischer, Kristin Chenoweth, Judy Davis, and Elizabeth Perkins. But I still think my list is better.

I cannot comment on Anna Paquin, having not seen that movie, and I have said more than enough about Pressly in the past. Griffiths is stuck in a bad role, Heigl is bad on her show and should have gotten nominated for "Knocked Up" on the film side of things instead. So happy for Morton. Rent "Longford" on DVD. I promise it is worth it. As for Rose Byrne, if she is not a lead, I do not know who is on any show. And also, she is awful on her show. How people can like the show I can comprehend a bit, but Byrne is terrible.

Who will win? They like to give it to mini-series or TV movie actresses, so I will guess Morton. It could just as easily be Paquin or recent Emmy winners Pressly or Heigl.
