Today the nominations for the 70th Golden Globe Awards were announced! As you might expect, we care most about the TV comedy categories, so here are the nominations for each of those categories, and our picks for who we think should win!
- The Big Bang Theory
- Episodes
- Girls
- Modern Family
- Smash
Sadly, many of our favorites like 30 Rock, The Office, Parks & Recreation, Community, and Louie weren't nominated this year. Out of the 5 that were, the only one we actually watch is Modern Family, so we'll have to vote for that one. Modern Family is a truly hilarious show with an amazing ensemble made up of both adults and kids. Modern Family won last year, so hopefully it wins again! Here's a great clip from a recent episode with guest star Matthew Broderick, who gets mixed signals from Phil:
Best Actor in a Television Series - Musical or Comedy
- Alec Baldwin - 30 Rock
- Don Cheadle - House of Lies
- Louis C.K. - Louie
- Matt LeBlanc - Episodes
- Jim Parsons - The Big Bang Theory
As much as we love Alec Baldwin on 30 Rock, we're rooting for Louis C.K. Alec Baldwin has already won the award 3 times now (Matt LeBlanc and Jim Parsons have also each won) so it would really be nice to see Louis C.K. get some recognition. While I'll readily admit that when it comes to acting, Louis doesn't have much of a range, he is really great at playing the fictionalized version of himself that he wrote for himself on Louie, as evidenced in this clip:
