a lie's still a lie, even when it's white

Once again the Golden Globes nominations suck and are boring but we're used to it (talking about TV here).



COMEDY
Glee got 4 (!!!) nominations. As much as I love the show, I'm very aware of its flaws so I'm surprised. But Jane Lynch FTFW!!! YES WE CANE.

What's most annoying is that it feels like they're using the same noms as last year, and the year before, and... regardless of the present quality of the show. Sorry The Office, I used to love you like crazy but you don't deserve your spot in the 5 best comedies of the year! I can easily pick 10 shows funnier than you this season. Same goes for 30 Rock. And wtf Entourage? are there still ppl watching that? But yeah I know, TV shows that focus on... the TV/movie industry just have to be there as a self-pat in the back.

So GO MODERN FAMILY (OR GLEE)!!!

actors now...
Baldwin & Carell, again? Really? WHAT ABOUT JIM PARSONS?

actresses...
I'd rather see Amy Poehler & Portia de Rossi than Courteney Cox (and I do love her and like her show!) or Lea Michele

DRAMA

*YAWN*

isn't that the exact same actor list as last year's?

I love True Blood but come on... the acting is not their strongest suit. I can totally find a bunch of actresses better than Anna Paquin. *cough*Connie Britton*cough*

MIXED CATEGORIES
the supporting actor list is a fight to the death between Benry, Barney Stinson, the Trinity killer & that douche from Entourage! How can that guy be on that list again and we can't have, idk... ENVER GJOKAJ?



movies: (I haven't seen most of them)
- yay Marion Cotillard! (haven't seen the movie though)
- lol Meryl Streep vs Meryl Streep
- (500) days of summer + Joseph Gordon-Levitt!!! ♥
- lol RDJ is nominated for Sherlock Holmes? but this isn't even out yet! not that I'm complaining :D
- I wish Michael Giacchino (Up) was nominated against himself for Star Trek

***

In not ranty news, how awesome was Lie to Me? (I'm speaking of the part with Brendan Hines & Felicia Day hehe). Who wants the song? I've ripped it from the episode (click!).


I say I'm 10 when
I'm 9 and a half
my uncle tells a joke
and I try to laugh
in gym I fake a headache
when I want to quit
I say I love the sweater
that my grandma knit

but that's a white lie
white lie
that's the kind you want
to tell, a white lie
white lie!
so your mom won't have
to yell, a white lie
white lie!
everybody does it 'cause
it feels all right
and it's more polite
but a lie's still a lie,
even when it's white

I pretend I'm asleep
when my dad walks in
I said I ate my chicken
but I just ate the skin
your face can say
you're lyin' when your
mouth says you're not
your pants are on fire
but they're not too hot

when it's a white lie
white lie!
it's the kind you want
to tell, a white lie
white lie!
so your dad won't have
to yell, a white lie
white lie!
everybody does it 'cause
it feels all right
and it's more polite,
but a lie's still a lie
even when it's white

while it might be hard
to say what's true
would you want a white
lie told to you?

but that's a white lie
white lie!
that's the kind you want
to tell, a white lie
white lie!
so your mom won't have
to yell, a white lie
white lie!
everybody does it 'cause
it feels all right
and it's more polite
but a lie's still a lie
even when it's white

TAKING THE SONG! Thank you! :D I was hoping someone would rip it. :D

Modern Family had a few rather boring and unfunny episodes while even the 'worst' Glee episodes have been more than just average (at least in my eyes) so I definitely want Glee to win.I wouldn't be sad though if Modern Family wins ^^

Jane Lynch + Michael Emerson are my other MUST WIN's.The rest is more "Yay,nomination,but I won't be heartbroken if they don't win"...

[hopelessfangirl.livejournal.com]

GLEE! ♥ I really hope the show wins, cause you're right, some of the other shows certainly aren't as funny anymore. And I think Glee deserves to win on this line alone: "I have to go, they'll think I'm pooping." XD

Meanwhile, DEF NEEDS MOAR CONNIE BRITTON AND/OR ZACH GILFORD.

"WHERE THE HELL IS MY BB, JIM PARSONS?"

Fail Golden Globes. Fail. Jim mocks you with his tongue.

I'm always annoyed by the inclusion of "True Blood" and Anna Paquin, because seriously, that is SUCH A CRACK SHOW and the acting is not stellar. You really can't find a better actress in all of TV drama? Oy.

Yay for Modern Family!

WTF WITH ENTOURAGE? Enough already.

[vinyamar.livejournal.com]

I'm fairly annoyed by all of Glee's noms, because I really think the only one it should have gotten was supporting for Jane Lynch. I hate Matthew Morrison or w/e his name is AND Lea Michelle. haha.

Jim Parsons NEEDED a nom, and so did the dude who plays Cam on MF. And I didn't even know Entourage was still on - wtf Jeremy Piven?

IDK, I'm fairly annoyed by them haha. But excited that Modern Family is getting recognition! (but TBBT is being SNUBBED)

[evilblacksheep.livejournal.com]

Baldwin AGAIN ?! Oh god *facepalm*

For actresses, I'll go for Toni Collette. And of course Michael Emerson *squee*

Ce qui m'étonne le plus avec les nominations de Modern Family et Glee c'est que je ne savais pas que les shows pouvaient être nommés sans avoir eu une saison complète! Mais tant mieux! :)

Damn, Connie Britton mérite tous les prix du monde (et je n'ai rien contre Anna Paquin ^^).

[demonickiwi.livejournal.com]

I am so pissed Jim Parsons and BBT got snubbed. That show cheers me up every Monday. And Entourage and the Office feel like their beating a dead horse and should just be classy and end after this season. But go Glee!

[http://users.livejournal.com/_cereza/]

I hadn't even checked the noms yet because I knew they'd make me mad.
I hate when the same show is nominated in EVERYTHING even if I do like the show. And snubbing Jim Parsons again is just scandalous, it's becoming more and more obvious that the jurors don't even watch any new shows anymore. Just nominate the usual suspects and hit the free all-you-can-eat buffet.

Oh and THANK YOU for the song. That so makes up for GG idiocy.

[zombie_boogie.livejournal.com]

As much as I still love The Office, it doesn't deserve a nomination more than Community or The Big Bang Theory. But I'd still keep in TO over Entourage, ew.

I was pleasantly surprised by (500) Days of Summer's nominations!

ENVER GJOKAJ, SERIOUSLY.
