My predictions: 5/6, picking “Arrested Development” over “Louie”
Two things I was fairly certain would happen didn’t this year. I had presumed that Louie wouldn’t ever make the top race because it didn’t appeal to everyone, but I guess that’s not the case. Even more surprising, the impossibly-anticipated “Arrested Development” failed to make the cut, earning one measly acting nomination for star Jason Bateman. After that, the list is exactly the same as it was last year. 30 Rock is nominated for the last time, while Modern Family and The Big Bang Theory are back again. “30 Rock” earned thirteen nominations, the same tally as the last two years, while “Modern Family” is down to twelve from fourteen, “The Big Bang Theory” is up to eight from a three-year run of five, and “Louie” is up to six from three last year. Rounding out the category are last year’s two breakthroughs, Girls and Veep. The former stayed steady at five nominations, while the latter netted two additional acting nominations to increase its tally from three to five. I wish that “Parks and Recreation” were here since it’s easily the best comedy on TV, but I suppose it’s not a bad list. “Episodes” and “Enlightened” were awarded small victories in other categories, while the still-fun “New Girl” was shut out entirely.
Who should win? I don’t watch “Louie” or “The Big Bang Theory,” so I’ll say “Veep,” no contest, for the moment
Who will win? “30 Rock” or “Modern Family” – take your pick
