Two more Emmy snubs (and a liveblog reminder)


I'm thinking we should add Hunter Parrish and Justin Kirk to the list of people the Emmys have consistently snubbed. Was just watching the show's most recent episode, "Une Mere Que J'aimerais Baiser" (I know, I know), and had to go back to the beginning roughly three times just to catch every single one of their small moments and (forgive me for this one) choices. I'm just so consistently impressed by these guys.

And how fitting that Silas has finally become Nancy's competition? It's a brilliantly "big" moment, and big moments are not something Weeds usually recognizes -- so the shot of Andy and Doug's shocked faces as Silas packs up is as emotional as it is surprising. Weeds has always been something of a hot mess, but it's never been predictable. The show is worth watching because of that -- and because of these two.

And on a somewhat related note, a quick reminder -- will be liveblogging the Emmys as usual this Sunday, starting with the E! pre-show at 6. Seacrest, it's been too long...
