WE cinta TV: Strange Emmy news for local shows "One pohon Hill," "Eastbound & Down," "Little Britain USA"
A peek at this year's Emmy ballot revealed some surprises about TV series filmed in the Wilmington area, including "One pohon Hill," "Little Britain USA" and "Eastbound & Down."
Now, every actor on TV isn't automatically put on the ballot. It costs a little money, and it's up to the actors (or their publicists atau agents atau networks) to menyerahkan their names.
Also, while some guidelines are in place about eligibility, it's ultimately up to an actor whether he atau she is entered, say, as a lead atau supporting player. Interestingly, Sarah Chalke of "Scrubs" is listed as a supporting actress this year, while her ensemble co-star Judy Reyes is diserahkan in the lead category. Sometimes this has to do with the storylines actors felt best showed their talents. Supporting candidates menyerahkan multiple episodes for consideration but lead candidates usually just menyerahkan one.
baru saja rule changes let actors in variety shows (like "Saturday Night Live") menyerahkan themselves as a series supporting player (instead of individual achievement in a music/variety show). But that has led to some strange submissions. Tracey Ullman, who is pretty much the only person on screen in her "State of the Union" Showtime series, is diserahkan in the comedy supporting actress category. "Little Britain USA" co-star David Walliams also is diserahkan in the supporting actor category, though his screen time clearly makes him lebih of a lead, along with co-star Matt Lucas. Lucas didn't menyerahkan himself of "Little Britain" at all, choosing instead to menyerahkan himself for his supporting role in Comedy Central's "Krod Mandoon and the Flaming Sword of Fire." It's an odd choice, especially because "Little Britain" probably has a slightly higher profil with voters, if only because it aired on HBO.
As for "One pohon Hill," none of the main five (Chad Michael Murray, Hilarie Burton, Bethany Joy Galeotti, James Lafferty atau Sophia Bush) were submitted, but singer Kate Voegele was. Her name shows up on the supporting actress ballot.
The only other "One pohon Hill" name on the ballot is James mobil van, van Der Beek, who is diserahkan for his guest appearance on "Hill". He's not the only former "Dawson's Creek" bintang on the ballot. Katie Holmes is there for her bernyanyi and dancing guest turn on "Eli Stone," and Joshua Jackson is on the daftar as a lead actor in a drama series candidate for "Fringe."
The locally made tampil with the most actors on the ballot is "Eastbound & Down." Every regular cast member, including lead actor Danny McBride and supporting players Katy Mixon, Ben Best and Andrew Daly, are on the ballot, as are guest stars Will Ferrell, Craig Robinson and Gina Gershon.
Of all these actors, Ferrell is probably a lock for a nomination for playing slick car dealer Ashley Schaeffer on "Eastbound." Depending on how well-received "Eastbound" was in Hollywood, McBride is a possibility, too. "Little Britain USA" might never have gotten the buzz it needed to stand out from the pack. And, it's doubtful any of the former "Dawson's Creek" kids will be nominated, though my money would be on Holmes, who was her old charming self as a mystery woman connected to Eli. And that dance number wasn't bad, either.
In the menulis categories, "One pohon Hill" diserahkan the episode "Letting Go," which aired March 30 (Peyton secretly prepares her friends for life without her, while Lucas tries to console his troubled nephew oleh sharing his own childhood refuge...). "Eastbound & Down" diserahkan its first and fourth episodes (though there is so much ad-libbing on that show, I'm not sure how you'd judge the writing). And "Little Britain USA" diserahkan itself for Outstanding menulis For A Variety, musik atau Comedy Series.
For directing, "One pohon Hill" diserahkan its 1940s episode and "Eastbound" diserahkan episodes one, four and five. "Little Britain USA" is in the Outstanding Directing For A Variety, musik atau Comedy Series category.
The Emmy nominations will be announced July 16
