Yes, awards season is gearing up again. And right on queue, the Screen Actors Guild Awards have joined the mosh pit with their annual list of nominations for their awards show, which will be held on January 23rd. Awards shows have their good and (all-too-often) bad aspects, but what I’ve always loved about the SAG Awards is the Ensemble categories, for both film and TV, where even actors who are complete schlubs can still walk away with a statue based on the work of the entire group. It’s very inclusive in a “yes, Dear, everybody’s special” kind of way.

How the fuck does A Serious Man not get a nom for best ensemble?

Where's The Informant? And House, are you serious? Fuck these awards shows, the just nominate the same shit over and over.
No Katey Sagal for Sons Of Anarchy???
i watched worlds greatest dad, let sleeping dogs lie, and, shakes the clown. after the 30 minute mark of all of them i get rather bored and unimpressed. williams did a good job but, imo, no nomination is needed.
Hamm or Cranston for Best Actor, but where the fuck is Breaking Bad for Best Drama? Renner for Best Actor (Film)!
