WE 愛 TV: Strange Emmy news for local shows "One 木, ツリー 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 木, ツリー 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 または agents または networks) to 提出する their names.
Also, while some guidelines are in place about eligibility, it's ultimately up to an actor whether he または she is entered, say, as a lead または supporting player. Interestingly, Sarah Chalke of "Scrubs" is listed as a supporting actress this year, while her ensemble co-star Judy Reyes is 提出されました in the lead category. Sometimes this has to do with the storylines actors felt best showed their talents. Supporting candidates 提出する multiple episodes for consideration but lead candidates usually just 提出する one.
最近 rule changes let actors in variety shows (like "Saturday Night Live") 提出する 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 提出されました in the comedy supporting actress category. "Little Britain USA" co-star David Walliams also is 提出されました in the supporting actor category, though his screen time clearly makes him もっと見る of a lead, along with co-star Matt Lucas. Lucas didn't 提出する himself of "Little Britain" at all, choosing instead to 提出する 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 プロフィール with voters, if only because it aired on HBO.
As for "One 木, ツリー Hill," none of the main five (Chad Michael Murray, Hilarie Burton, Bethany Joy Galeotti, James Lafferty または Sophia Bush) were submitted, but singer Kate Voegele was. Her name shows up on the supporting actress ballot.
The only other "One 木, ツリー Hill" name on the ballot is James バン Der Beek, who is 提出されました for his guest appearance on "Hill". He's not the only former "Dawson's Creek" 星, つ星 on the ballot. Katie Holmes is there for her 歌う and dancing guest turn on "Eli Stone," and Joshua Jackson is on the 一覧 as a lead actor in a drama series candidate for "Fringe."
The locally made 表示する 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 書く categories, "One 木, ツリー Hill" 提出されました the episode "Letting Go," which aired March 30 (Peyton secretly prepares her フレンズ for life without her, while Lucas tries to console his troubled nephew によって sharing his own childhood refuge...). "Eastbound & Down" 提出されました 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" 提出されました itself for Outstanding 書く For A Variety, 音楽 または Comedy Series.
For directing, "One 木, ツリー Hill" 提出されました its 1940s episode and "Eastbound" 提出されました episodes one, four and five. "Little Britain USA" is in the Outstanding Directing For A Variety, 音楽 または Comedy Series category.
The Emmy nominations will be announced July 16
