True Blood Cast Nominated for Screen Actors Guild Award

Well, the SAG awards were announced and with a saddened heart, I have to report that we was robbed! The only category that True Blood was nominated in was for best cast. OK, that is a good category, but still – they think the overall cast is great but not one nomination for any specific actor? Who votes on this stuff anyway? Oh, that’s right, it’s the actors that vote…
The Screen Actor’s Guild awards will air live on January 23rd. See all nominations here.
Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series
The Closer
Dexter
The Good Wife
Mad Men
True Blood
I gotta agree Liv. How do they get nominated for best ensemble without at least one of them getting a nod for best anything? Are the powers to be suggesting that none of them can act unless their together? Is dependancy a good or bad thing? :)
I am in agreement with you Aemac, How is it possible that none of our fine actors have recieved a nod? Is this genre still a taboo? Would the powers that be feel as if they are demeaning the spirit of the award when a genre actor is chosen?
Well acting is acting whether the actor is portraying an immortal or a housewife. It is about quality and talent. It is a shame the “powers” have yet to rise above their small mindedness and give the proper consideration to those who deserve it.
Perhaps in the future, we the fans will make our voices loud enough to make a difference.
I am forever hopeful.
Thanks Lividity.
