NBC's "30 Rock" had a leading 22 nominations, including best TV comedy and best actress for Fey, who took the acting Emmy in 2007. "Mad Men" on cable channel AMC had 16 nominations, including best drama. Both shows won the Emmy in those categories last year. Among the networks, cable channel HBO lead the field with 99 primetime Emmy nominations, while Showtime had 29 and AMC pulled in 23. Broadcast network NBC earned 67 nominations, followed by ABC with 55, CBSwith 49 and Fox with 42. More nominees were added to the leading categories for the first time this year in a bow to growth of strong dramas and comedies on U.S. television, particularly on cable TV. "There is so much good work, we have really recognized the diversity on television today," said John Shaffner, chairman and CEO of the Television Academy. The Academy said 41 of the 83 nominations for comedy and drama programs were different from last year. They included drama newcomer "Big Love," HBO's controversial polygamy series, animated comedy "Family Guy" on Fox and HBO comedy "Flight of the Conchords." Actor Simon Baker of the new CBS crime show "The Mentalist" got a best actor nomination, while Jim Parsons of "The Big Bang Theory" and Toni Collette of Showtime's "United States of Tara" were among the fresh faces in the comedy category. Sketch comedy series "Saturday Night Live," which drew record audiences for NBC during last year's U.S. presidential election campaign, had 13 nominations, including a best guest actress nod for Fey's skits as Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin. Singer Justin Timberlake also received a guest actor nomination for "Saturday Night Live." Alan Baldwin was nominated best comedy actor for his role in the network TV spoof series "30 Rock," which dominated the Emmy nominations for a second year. Baldwin won the award last year. "MAD MEN" HOPES FOR REPEAT "Mad Men", which won the best drama Emmy last year marking an award breakthrough for basic cable shows, will compete against legal program "Damages" on FX, "Breaking Bad" on AMC, serial killer drama "Dexter" of Showtime, Fox medical series "House" and ABC's "Lost." Along with "30 Rock," comedy series nominations included HBO's "Entourage," NBC's "The Office," "Weeds" from Showtime and "How I Met Your Mother" on CBS. In the race for best actor in a drama, Bryan Cranston will hope to repeat his surprise win last year for his role as a chemistry teacher turned drug dealer in "Breaking Bad." Jon Hamm of "Mad Men," cranky doctor Hugh Laurie of "House," Michael C. Hall for "Dexter" and Gabriel Byrne from "In Treatment" also are in the running. Glenn Close, who plays a hard-bitten lawyer in "Damages," detective Kyra Sedgwick in "The Closer," Mariska Hargitay ("Law & Order: Special Victims Unit"), Sally Field ("Brothers and Sisters"), Holly Hunter ("Saving Grace") and Elisabeth Moss ("Mad Men") will compete in the best drama actress category. The 61st Primetime Emmys will be handed out in Los Angeles on September 20 in a live broadcast ceremony. Continued... View article on single page Share: Del.icio.us Digg Mixx Yahoo!
