Emmy Nominations Announced

It’s that time of year again- time to gear up for the Primetime Emmy Awards. And with this year’s list of nominees, it’s sure to be an amazing night.

Loved by critics and audiences alike, NBC’s “30 Rock” has a strong showing this year with a total of 17 nominations, including Outstanding Comedy Series, Outstanding Lead Actor (Alec Baldwin) and Outstanding Lead Actress (Tina Fey).

Next in line is AMC’s “Mad Men” with a rousing 16 nominations, while HBO’s “John Adams” is the overall leader with a staggering 23 nominations.

And with Katherine Heigl’s decision to pull herself from Emmy contention, “Grey’s Anatomy” has just 5 nominations, with both Sandra Oh and Chandra Wilson nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama.

In the Outstanding Reality-competition Program category, the competition is fierce with American Idol, Project Runway, The Amazing Race, Top Chef, and Dancing With the Stars all vying for the prize.
