THE SECOND MOST IMPORTANT AWARDS NOMINATIONS ANNOUNCED TODAY: The Golden Satellite Awards are a spinoff of the Golden Globes, and they're even more bizarre than the Globes. Not only do they have robust new media/video game categories, they tend to go bizarre in the nominations, and this year is no exception:
  • Best Actress/Comedy features nominees Sandra Bullock for The Proposal and Katherine Heigl for The Ugly Truth.
  • Emily Blunt is a double nominee--Lead Actress/Drama for Young Victoria and Supporting Actress for Sunshine Cleaning.
  • Zach Galifinakis is snubbed, but Bradley Cooper is in for The Hangover.
  • Big love for The Stoning of Soraya M.
  • Nary a nomination for House (not even Laurie!), but The Good Wife gets into the Best Drama race, and both Nathan Fillion and Stana Katic are nominated for acting on Castle.
  • Glee gets 4 acting nominations--Morrison and Michele as leads, Colfer and Lynch as supporting preformers, plus a best comedy series nomination. Modern Family? Sole nomination goes to Julie Bowen as leading actress.
They do announce a few winners in advance--best ensemble motion picture cast goes to Nine (which leads all nominees), best TV ensemble goes to True Blood, and Kristin Chenoweth receives a special honor for her work as a guest star on Glee.
