Desperate gets Golden

by Marilyn Porter

The Golden Globes nominations were announced at an ungodly hour this morning. No real surprises in the television arena (I was very pleased to see “Heroes” get nominated for Best Drama Series), just some very deserving nods. “Desperate Housewives” was nominated for:

  • Best Comedy Series
  • Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy: Felicity Huffman
  • Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy: Marcia Cross

No nods for Teri Hatcher or Eva Longoria, unfortunately, but it was unlikely that all four of the women would be nominated at the same time anyhow. I’m pleased with the nominations, mostly because I’m not sure who I’d like to see win Best Actress more; both are very deserving and have had some great storylines to work off of. I’m going to give the edge to Marcia Cross, however. I think she’s due.

The Golden Globes will air Monday, January 15th.

    [...] SAG nominees announced January 4th, 2007 by Marilyn Porter This must be Felicity’s year! Not only has she been nominated for a Golden Globe but she’s now also nominated for Best Actress in a Comedy Series at the 13th Annual Screen Actor’s Guild Awards, which will be airing January 28th. Notable is the lack of a nomination for Marcia Cross (who was also nominated for a Golden Globe this year), as well as the other ladies. The rest of the ‘wives need not fret, however, because the cast has been nominated for Best Comedy Series Cast as well, an honor the show won at last years awards show. They’re up against some stiff competition from “Ugly Betty” and “The Office”, among others. Check out the full listing of nominees over at Yahoo! News. This year seems like a great year, competition wise. There are so many wonderful shows and movies out right now that make for some truly deserving winners. I couldn’t begin to pick the best!

    [...] Wow, if the Mohammed can’t come to the mountain, the mountain will come to Mohammed! Best of luck to Marcia for the rest of her pregnancy, I hope she’s getting spoiled rotten. I wonder if this will impact her appearance at the Golden Globes this coming Sunday (she’s nominated). This might solve her evening wear dilemma after all!
