Emmy Nominations 2011!

Hey everyone! It's been awhile! Due to a combination of factors (including the new Harry Potter movie, which was awesome, and not having computer access all weekend), it's been a little quiet on the blog.

This means that I didn't do my big post on the 2011 Emmy nominations that I was planning. But it's all good because I have come up with a better plan that will allow me to spread my coverage over the weeks as lead up to the Emmys.

What I'm planning is that I will do a post on all of the major categories discussing who's nominated and predictions in the categories. I'm going to do this over the next 9 Thursdays (with one Tuesday in the middle), starting with this Thursday.

The schedule is what follows:

Thursday July 21st: Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy
Thursday July 28th: Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy
Thursday August 4th: Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy
Thursday August 11th: Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy
Thursday August 18th: Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama
Thursday August 25th: Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama
Thursday September 1st: Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama
Thursday September 8th: Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama
Tuesday September 13th: Outstanding Drama Series
Thursday September 15th: Outstanding Comedy Series

After the jump I have a list in all of the major categories (and others that I will be keeping an eye on during the Emmys) from the nomination list.

Emmy Predictions 2011: Here's All My Choices in One Place

Over the past few weeks, I have done a series on the 2011 Emmy nominations. I went through the eight major acting categories and the two series categories. For each category I listed my predictions and who I would put on my Emmy Ballot. You can find that information for each category after the jump.

As a note, look for my thoughts on the Emmy nominations tomorrow around 4:30PM ET.

Programming Note: Twin Peaks Notice

I'm sorry to say that Twin Peaks will not be covered as a part of the Old TV Watch Project this summer. My schedule just can't handle three shows a week as a part of this project. However, Twin Peaks will be covered in the winter/spring slot starting in February.

Recap: No Twin Peaks this summer, will instead start in February.
