Jim Parsons is so adorable<3
If I’m recalling correctly, Cheadle’s reaction was also funny from last year
lol Don Cheadle
Vera is the only light on the trainwreck that “Bates Motel” has been. Her tantrums are priceless, and she really deserved that nom. Meanwhile, Connie… you didn’t deserve it! Hayden should’ve been nominated.
‘
Yes, I’d have picked Hayden over Connie
I’m puting this here because every other article has about 1000 comments already but its a damn shame that Lily Rabe had to be snubbed for AHS and had to watch every other cast member get recognized. Not that Paulson or Quinto or anyone were great but she was the standout and deserved this more than anyone
So happy about Connie Britton.
Vera’s reaction is so adorable. Well deserved as she was crazy!
If i was a actress possibility of being nominated i would watch the freakin’ nominations! I don’t get those… “Oh, i was sleeping and didn’t even know what day it is”. I think it sounds slightly fake.
LOL what more can Bryan Cranston say at this point. He wins these things in his sleep. Well deserved though, he and the rest of the cast are fantastic ;)
Yay for Merritt Weaver! Nurse Jackie would not be the same without Nurse Chloe!
That’s Molly Shannon in the first pic, not Dot-Marie Jones.
That’s what I was thinking
Yeah–Who’s proofreading this thing anyway. If you need a good one, I’m a card carrying member of the Grammar Police…
To be honest, I think I would tune in to an episode of just Jim Parsons standing there for 22 minutes. I’d probably only watch it the one time, but I would most likely watch it.
“I really am shocked that I was nominated over the amazingly talented Tatiana Maslany. Scandal had the most buzz of any show this year but no one on TV out-shown #TeamClone” — Kerry Washington
Why does it say Dot Marie Jones instead of Molly Shannon in the first one?
Don Cheadle :)
The first one is Molly Shannon, not Dot Marie Jones.
So glad Jim Parsons is nominated again! I hope he wins at least one more time! By the way, I’d definitely tune in to see him stand there for 22 minutes! He’s so adorable!
