[Black Dagger]

I recently got into Modern Family, was shocked at how well it does in the ratings over there tbh.

[Roy Mars III]

especially because it's terrible

[Locke.]

Watched an episode of it about a year ago, didn't find it funny really but the young girl that looks like Mila Kunis is really fit so it's all good.

[arista]

Boardwalk Empire


I hope this wins

[Locke.]

That has the least chance of winning out of the six

[michael21]

Dexter will win :hmph:

[Roy Mars III]

Boardwalk Empire


I hope this wins

Season 2 has been much better than the first, but it's probably the second least deserving show nommed for best series

[Shaun]

Homeland'll probably have a pretty clean sweep since it's the hot new thing.

[Iceman]

Hope Claire Danes gets hers. Homeland should do well like Shaun said.

[Petershaw1984]

Our shows are doing well

[Marsh.]

This sudden obsession with Downton Abbey baffles me. Is period dramas a novelty in America? Because it really is nothing special.

Even if it has a few good actors in it, 16 nominations is a joke. As is Modern Family taking 4 of 6 spots in one category.

As soon as they have favourites they stick to them no matter what.

I like The Big Bang Theory but if Jim Parsons wins that Emmy yet again then the rules need changing.
