Edna: Margie, that sure was a dull awards show Sunday night. That's 3 hours of my life I'd like back, why did we watch the whole thing?
Margie: It surely was dull. If you hadn't misplaced the remote and if we both hadn't been so full of cake we couldn't move, then we could have changed the channel.
Edna: Margie, you were sitting on the remote, I didn't lose it. I should have hauled myself off the couch and changed the channel to something more interesting. We're old women and we can't afford to waste the time we have left on such idiocy.
And we barely got any of our predictions right, which just burns my biscuits! What's wrong with these Emmy voters?
Margie: I'll tell you what's wrong, Edna. The voters couldn't pour urine out of a boot if the instructions were on the heel. They just vote for who they like. They surely didn't vote for the best shows or the best people.
Edna: Now Margie, that seems a little harsh. But maybe you're just sulking because you didn't get any of your guesses right? Cousin T and I each got 2 of ours right, I guess we're just more observant than you are.
Margie: Edna, I guess you can just hush. The only reason I'm sulking is because Supernatural is the very best drama on TV and my Jensen is certainly the best actor.
Besides, why would I trust you? You always cheat at Jeopardy too.
Edna: I'm sure that I don't know what you're suggesting. If anyone wants to look at the correct predictions we made, they can just look at our posts from last week. And a full list of the Emmy winners can be found here. So you can just kiss my tushie, Margie.
Margie: Edna thinks all a body's got to do is watch TV. Emmy winners my eye. Well, I can pick them better than she can.
You may wonder why I haven't listed sitcoms. Well, you live around Edna and Cousin T and see if you need to see comedy on TV.
Here are my picks:
Outstanding Lead Actor In A Drama Series
James Spader as Alan Shore
Boston Legal • ABC
Bryan Cranston as Walt White
Breaking Bad • AMC
Michael C. Hall as Dexter Morgan
Dexter • Showtime
Hugh Laurie as Dr. Gregory House
House • FOX
Gabriel Byrne as Paul
In Treatment • HBO
Jon Hamm as Don Draper
Mad Men • AMC
** I pick James Spader because I think he's cute.
Outstanding Lead Actress In A Drama Series
Sally Field as Nora Holden-Walker
Brothers & Sisters • ABC
Kyra Sedgwick as Deputy Chief Brenda Johnson
The Closer • TNT
Glenn Close as Patty Hewes
Damages • FX Networks
Mariska Hargitay as Olivia Benson
Law & Order: Special Victims Unit • NBC
Holly Hunter as Grace Hanadarko
Saving Grace • TNT
** This is a tough choice but I pick Sally Field because she has really turned her life around. First, she thought she wanted to be a Flying Nun then she got mixed up with Smokey and the Bandit. She's a respectable mother in "Brothers and Sisters" now so she should win.
Outstanding Supporting Actor In A Drama Series
William Shatner as Denny Crane
Boston Legal • ABC
Ted Danson as Arthur Frobisher
Damages • FX Networks
Zeljko Ivanek as Ray Fiske
Damages • FX Networks
Michael Emerson as Ben
Lost • ABC
John Slattery as Roger Sterling
Mad Men • AMC
** I pick Michael Emerson because he's a strange looking little man. I think winning an Emmy might help him get some more parts.
Outstanding Supporting Actress In A Drama Series
Candice Bergen as Shirley Schmidt
Boston Legal • ABC
Rachel Griffiths as Sarah Walker-Whedon
Brothers & Sisters • ABC
Chandra Wilson as Dr. Miranda Bailey
Grey’s Anatomy • ABC
Sandra Oh as Cristina Yang
Grey’s Anatomy • ABC
Dianne Wiest as Dr. Gina Toll
In Treatment • HBO
** I pick Rachel Griffiths. She's such a pretty young lady and very talented. She reminds me of myself when I was her age.
Outstanding Drama Series
Boston Legal • ABC
Damages • FX Networks
Dexter • Showtime
House • FOX
Lost • ABC
Mad Men • AMC
** I predict the winner will be Supernatural. Wait a minute. What dummy forgot to list my show here?
I guess I'll have to pick Lost but it's just not right.
Outstanding Special Visual Effects for a Series
SciFi Channel's "Battlestar Galactica"
"Stargate Atlantis,"
NBC's " Heroes,"
CBS "Jericho"
Discovery Channel documentary "Human Body: Pushing the Limits.
** The clear winner here is Jericho. What a show! Fantastic. Oh, here's an unannounced award:
The Emmy for Dumbest Decision by a Network goes to CBS for their cancellation of Jericho. Special mention to Leslie Moonves. Need I say more?
Outstanding Sound Editing For A Series
Supernatural • Jus In Bello • CW • Supernatural Films, Inc., and Warner Bros. Television Productions, Inc.
** No need to list more nominees. This is the clear winner. Why? All you have to do is listen to the sound of Jensen Ackles voice and you'll see why. There is no sweeter sound in all the world. Lawsy me, let him whisper in my ear.
Oops! I hear Edna calling me. Gotta run. Bye now.
