Emmy Predictions for Tonight's Show at 8

The Creative Arts Emmy Awards have already been given out. For a list of wins, visit the official Emmy site list here. This includes the Best Guest Actor/Actresses and Best Choreography (a must for SYTYCD nuts like me) categories, in addition to the sound editing/lighting crap that no one cares about.

  1. The one thing that always has bugged me about the Emmys is that no matter how often you watch it, for about every 5 year spans 75% of the nominees are always the same.

    I'm boycotting the Emmys though until they give Craig Ferguson some late night emmy nominations.

    Good picks though, we'll see what happens tonight...

  2. Cat Deeley is ridiculously overdue for a hosting nomination. A silly category, but she's a really good hostess.
    I'm actually interested this year because they did nominate some new blood, like the Conchords, Jim Parsons, and Dexter.
