Emmy's burning questions

For the past 24 hours I’ve been reading the "Who got snubbed?" stories about the Emmys, and I can’t figure out why more people aren’t Read the full post.

    Mike: someone has to make those words come to life, hence, the brilliance that is Tracy Morgan.
    I will admit, I thought Morgan was just ‘cooning’ on that show, but now I “get it”. Unfortunately, the Emmys may jusy look at his performance as something that comes naturally and requires little skill.

    Sorry – I just do not get it. I think Tracy Morgan is one of the worst actors I have ever seen. I have never understood his success. I attribute it to a great agent and manager. He always does the same thing and I never find it funny. When I do watch “30 Rock” it is for Alec Baldwin (who is brilliant) and I skip all Tracy Morgan bits. I put him in the category of stupid guy/frat boy humor – which I am saddened to see has taken over the industry (see Ben Stiller, Adam Sandler, David Spade, Rob Schneider, Owen Wilson)and the country. All these people just do the same characters over and over again.

    I am glad Tracy Morgan did not get a nomination. He is so unlikeable. Any time he is on screen, I leave the room.

    First of all, Tracy Morgan submitted himself in the LEAD actor race, which was bound to leave him in the dust. Either way, I’ve never been a fan of Morgan. I wasn’t a fan of his SNL work, and though I love “30 Rock” to death, there are only fleeting instances where my opinion of him changes. I just don’t think he’s all that funny.

    i’m still wondering how the wire got ignored yet again. its like the emmy voters don’t watch anything with people of color as the leads. or bother to view anything that might be complicated and require thought.

    i do think tracy deserves a nomination in the supporting actor category but i the jack macbrayer/kenneth the page deserves one more – he is one of the most original characters on tv. re tracy though, i laughed so hard in that episode where tracy is off his meds and he has his back to liz and it looks like he’s talking on the phone (saying something about his cable not working) and then he turns around and liz sees that he’s talking on a big running shoe! classic.
