Well these are pretty ridiculous and off base (in my opinion).
No nominations for Take Shelter or Margin Call? There should AT LEAST be a Best Actor nod for Michael Shannon in Take Shelter because holy shit was he great.
The Help was just NOT that great and doesn’t deserve that many nominations.
Jon Cryer for Two and a Half Men? Give me a fucking break. How about ANYBODY from It’s Always Sunny, Community or Parks and Rec? They are all better than everyone on Two and a Half Men combined.
And nothing for Homeland? That’s insanity. Have they not seen Claire Danes in that show? Guess not.
I am happy about the Christopher Plummer for Beginners nomination as well Melissa McCarthy for Bridesmaids. And obviously if Kyle Chandler and Bryan Cranston hadn’t been nominated it would have been a joke, so thank fuck for that.
