Many thanks to Access Hollywood for the list. For the complete list, go here.
Desperate Housewives is glaringly missing from the winner’s list. As Charlie McCollum of The Mercury News aptly put it two years ago,
My suspicion is that “Housewives’’ was just too much of a hybrid for the traditionalists within the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, who see hour-long shows as dramas and half-hour series as comedies.
Unlike “Ally McBeal,’’ the last hour show to win the comedy Emmy, “Housewives’’ is as much drama (or melodrama) as it is comedy. Which really makes it neither fish nor fowl when it comes to the Emmys. (“Gilmore Girls,’’ which wasn’t nominated but should have been, has the same problem.)
I guess after two years, Desperate Housewives is still having the same problem. They’re not even nominated this year (only Felicity Huffman was nominated as Best Actress in a comedy series).
Oh, and America Ferrera definitely deserves her Best Actress win.
