My predictions: 2/5, picking only “Episodes” and “Louie”
The nominees: Episode 209 (Episodes), Daddy’s Girlfriend, Part 1 (Louie), Finale (The Office), Hogcock! (30 Rock), Last Lunch (30 Rock)
After last year marked an exceptionally creative year of this category that omitted both “Modern Family” and 30 Rock, I erroneously picked the former to return with dual nominations in this category rather than the latter. It doesn’t make sense to me that these two episodes were able to be nominated here individually while they constitute one episode in the directing race. The finale was fine, but I’m over the show. It makes sense that Louie, which won last year, is here for its one submitted episode, but I’m surprised that “Girls” didn’t make an appearance. I was going to take Episodes out of my predictions, but I’m so glad I didn’t. Seeing the series finale of The Office recognized here is heartwarming since it was a very well-written ode to what was always best about the show. On the negative side, so much for “Parks and Recreation,” which got two nominations in this category last year, and “Community,” which got one, showing up.
Who should win? “Finale”
Who will win? “Last Lunch”
