I don't think you should. The show must go on like they all say. Do what must be done. And in other news......MIDNIGHT IS NOT COMING FAST ENOUGH!!!!!!

I'm sort of waiting for midnight too.
Was planning on going with some cast members to see HP7.2, but I haven't heard any news about plans since monday. Sort of just illustrates how alienated I've been feeling from the rest of them. Someone supposedly already bought me a ticket online but now a closer theater has finally decided to offer a midnight show and I wish we could go there. I'm also thinking of bailing because I've always seen the movies with my husband and kind of feel like I should wait til we can both go. (he has to work early tomorrow). We can see a Saturday morning or Sunday evening show.

Lovely. Dr. Horrible opens on Sunday, and I have a sore throat... luckily, it's not as bad as yesterday.

SAME.
Although I am so so so so so so excited, I know that when it's over, I'm going to be crying like a baby. It just won't be the same when there isn't a new HP movie coming out every year.....

Agree with you on the bolded names (I don't watch Big Bang Theory or Fringe). CW (and formerly, the WB) shows (and most supernatural/science fiction shows) always get snubbed, so that's not surprising, but I was really disappointed Community got completely shut out. One of the most original and hilarious comedies on TV right now. I admit, I really did not really feel it when I saw the pilot when it first aired, but I gave it another chance after catching a rerun of Modern Warfare and have been hooked ever since. I was really hoping Joel McHale or Danny Pudi would get nominations as well.
Glee will always have a place in my heart, but season 2 is not Emmy-nomination worthy IMO. I think Jane Lynch's spot should have gone to either Heather Morris or Naya Rivera.


I felt Jane Lynch deserved her nomination on the strength of the funeral episode alone. Chris Colfer, not as much. I think Ed Westwick is one of the most underrated actors in television but the CW gets absolutely no respect. I also believe Mariska Hargitay's spot could've gone to either Anna Torv or Emilia Clarke. I was very surprised that John Noble didn't get a best supporting actor nom, considering he won the Critics Choice Award for that category a few weeks ago, and his performance is hands-down the best and most nuanced currently on TV. Out of the nominees in that category, I'm hoping Peter Dinklage walks away with it. I really enjoyed Game of Thrones this past year, and Dinklage was an absolute delight as Tyrion.
