EMMY'S LOVE CONAN MORE THAN JAY?

Personally I think the whole Conan vs. Jay Leno thing is a mess. I do like Conan over Jay and I feel that once Jay said he was retiring then shrug stay retired. I think NBC was wrong from saying it was ok for Jay to say "Oh, my bad I don't want to retire" after plans had been made and Conan was to take over the Tonight Show. Then to tell Coco umm oops you can't have the show now. Conan will be ok and by the Emmy nods he received I'm not the only one who thinks he will come out on top.

NEW YORK (AP) - The Emmys are standing with Team Coco, snubbing Jay Leno.


O'Brien's short-lived reign at NBC's "Tonight" show earned him an Emmy nod for best variety, music or comedy series. Leno, who returned to "Tonight" following the failure of his prime-time show, was not nominated on Thursday.
But if it makes Leno feel any better, David Letterman was snubbed in the same category - for the first time in 17 years.
NBC submitted both versions of "Tonight" for Emmys consideration, letting the TV academy decide what to include in the category. They went with O'Brien, who was nominated alongside "Saturday Night Live" and shows hosted by Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert and Bill Maher. O'Brien's final "Tonight" show was also nominated for best writing in a variety, music or comedy series.

"We congratulate Conan and all of our nominees on their creative accomplishments and their deserved nominations," NBC said in a statement.

The rest of the story after the jump
Letterman's "Late Show" on CBS has been nominated every year since it began on the network in 1993. Not this time, when his eligibility period coincided with a well-publicized extortion attempt and Letterman's admission that he had had intimate relationships with some of his staff members.

Charlie Sheen, star of television's most popular comedy, "Two and a Half Men," was not among the six nominees for best actor in a comedy. Sheen has been involved in his own messy, personal incident, an alleged domestic violence case against his wife on Christmas Day. The CBS show was not among the nominees for best comedy.
After being an Emmy darling last year for scoring the first best comedy nomination for an animated series in nearly 50 years, Fox's "Family Guy" this year was only nominated for music included in one episode.

One Emmy snub may make for delicate moments on the set of ABC's freshman comedy "Modern Family." Five members of the show's ensemble - Julie Bowen, Sofia Vergara, Ty Burrell, Eric Stonestreet and Jesse Tyler Ferguson - earned supporting actor or actress nominations. The sixth member, and perhaps the best-known actor in the cast, Ed O'Neill, was not nominated.
