Also, Mythic Quest and Little America got seriously snubbed. Not cool. Chris Evans should've gotten a nom for Defending Jacob as well, in the limited series category.
Despite the show's shortcomings, the cast WAS really good. Tough beat for Reese Witherspoon to get left out of the nom party, but she was definitely the weakest link in the cast. Not totally her fault. Miscast as the young up and comer. If anyone else deserved a nomination, it was Gugu Mbatha-Raw.
Also, the titles were also nice.
