Golden Globes: Hollywood Foreign Press Big Fans Of "True Blood", "In Treatment"?

Bryan Christian — Thu, 11 Dec 2008 16:49:00 GMT

Not sure we fully understand what's going on with today's list of Golden Globe noms. Big props for the nods to Dexter and Mad Men, particularly the Best Actress slot for January Jones -- whose superlative and subtle work, like Tricia Helfer's on Battlestar Galactica, is probably underappreciated because she's so damn hot. And, you know, all hail 30 Rock. But take a look at the rest of TV noms and ask yourself -- is that a line up of TV that you'd actually watch? (We know, we saw every episode of True Blood, yes; that doesn't mean we're happy about it.)

BTW: most phallic award ever?

Assuming this pilot doesn't suck... as much as it sounds like it might.

Ah well, at least she's making an appearance in the Burn Notice Season Two premiere this summer!

Oh, also, she likes animals. Well, we do too!

Hey, wanna see her naked? It's Friday, right: everybody deserves nudity on Fridays!

"Battlestar Galactica": Number Six Has a Plan. Also, Webbed Feet.

We also heard you have webbed toes.
I do! I'd mentioned it before and then had all these doctors hounding my agents offering to fix them. But I don't want them fixed. I like my toes! It's just the second and third toe, not the whole foot.
