Well, there's good news and bad news regarding the Emmy nominations for '24' this year. There were a total of 11 nominations. 6 for the series and 5 for the TV movie, '24: Redemption'.
However, I was stunned and quite frankly angry that '24' was not nominated for best drama and Kiefer Sutherland was not nominated for his phenomenal work in Season 7 in the category of best lead actor in a drama series.
I also thought Annie Wersching and Jon Voight deserved nominations as well.
As soon as I get the detailed list of the 11 nominations for '24' I will post them.
Here's what I know so far:
Actor, Miniseries or Movie:
Kevin Kline, "Cyrano de Bergerac," PBS; Brendan Gleeson, "Into the Storm," HBO; Ian McKellen, "King Lear," PBS; Kevin Bacon, "Taking Chance," HBO; Kiefer Sutherland, "24: Redemption," Fox; Kenneth Branagh, "Wallander: One Step Behind," PBS.
Supporting Actress, Drama Series:
Rose Byrne, "Damages," FX Networks; Sandra Oh, "Grey's Anatomy," ABC; Chandra Wilson, "Grey's Anatomy," ABC; Dianne Wiest, "In Treatment," HBO; Hope Davis, "In Treatment," HBO; Cherry Jones, "24," Fox.
It was good to see these nominations for '24', however I think the show was severely shortchanged. The '24' cast and crew worked so hard to make Season 7 one of their best and I thought they deserved to at least be nominated for best television drama. Very disappointing. :(
