    All the emmy's really do though is remind everyone how many terrible comedies there are out there. These are really the best of the best? The best comedy on cable tv is really a washed up over played (albeit still funny somehow) 7th season of the office ainec? welp

    I hope Dinklage wins because he is terrific on GoT, but I haven't seen any of the other shows so I can't say whether he's a lock.

    I think Boardwalk probably wins over Game of Thrones.

    Jim Parsons or Louis C.K. over Steve Carrell.

    Margo Martindale has to be the biggest slam dunk of all the nominees.

    The fact that Kristen Wiig is even nominated is kind of silly. I just don't find her funny and most of her bits are beyond annoying.

    30 Rock, Modern Family and The Office are all really good comedies. I think Community is better than Big Bang Theory, and havent watched much of Parks & Rec, but have heard it is pretty good and have liked what i have seen of it.

    Lauren Graham in Parenthood deserved a nominee.

    Community is awful. Parks & Rec is excellent.

    i dont watch Community regularly, i have enjoyed most of the shows i have seen. i wouldnt put Community on same level as Mod Fam and Office, but well ahead of shows like Big Bang/2.5 Men. i have to watch Park & Rec more.

    Parks and Rec used to be my least favorite of the NBC comedy block but slowly it has grown to be my favorite.

    He plays a tough guy womanizer. Problem is he's not intimidating and he sure as shit is not good looking or capable of getting any of those chicks, it's just not believable. Darmody would be a better lead. I like the show and like Buschemi in general just think he doesn't fit that role at all.

    Community deserves more, but it's the lolEmmy's so who cares.
    Mad Men will be raping again, because it is the best show on television.

    So men always have to be good looking to be womanizers? Money and power gets men ass regardless of how ugly they are.

    this came on espn the other day. I usually have sportscenter on as background noise and I was sitting on my couch on the laptop distracted and I would look up every few minutes to see wtf was on and every single scene was some corny highschool poorly acted drama. Not to mention it's highschool football, the single most unimportant thing known to man. I couldn't reach the remote but after 15 minutes of putting up with this I did the unthinkable and actually got up and turned the tv off, that show is fucking stupid and yes, 15 minutes is enough time to come to that conclusion.
