Wire Snubbed at the Emmys... only 1 nomination...

jaha127 · July 2008

ok... I am not sure how many people out there are fans of HBOs the Wire. But if you are a fan I am sure your shocked that yet again the Wire is snubbed and only received 1 nomination (the same about that Hannah Montana received) ... especially in there last season...

I mean Omar, not being nominated for best supporting actor?

award shows are assholes.

heck, if I can win an oscar pool because I'm the only one that votes bourne for all of the technical awards because I have a strange obsession with a singular scene in one movie (the morocco chase scene culminating in the bathroom fight scene), award shows are not based on taste.

I KNOW! Omar is my favorite bad/not so bad guy.

I never watched it, but am thinking it might make a good marathon in the winter

We watched the last season, then went back and started from the beginning with Netflix.

That's crazy - The Wire, IMHO, was the best show ever - period. The acting was amazing - the whole series just hooks you in. I'm very sorry to hear that this production and the actors involved in it are not being given the recognition they deserve. Makes you wonder how they determine which shows are nominated??

The Wire is the greatest show ever made, and possibly the greatest piece of work ever produced with a moving image medium (that includes you Citizen Kane and all your cronies), particularly season 4.

I'm disappointed, but not surprised it was snubbed again.

Consider yourself a pre-addict.

Damn, I already have enough problems! I wish they had it on Netflix instantly, because I'm digging my Roku box
