| First of all, the Emmys (and the Oscars, for that matter) often make bewildering choices. The fact that Martin Sheen never won this particular award (when most of his co-stars won supporting Emmys) is absolutely astounding. That show was packed with superior actors, but he was easily the best of the bunch. That's when I stopped caring about these award shows, which don't seem to correspond in any way to the actual quality of the acting.
(Another case study is this year's Oscars, in which the actors in that goofy slumdog movie beat out Meryl Streep and Philip Seymour Hoffman, who gave the performances of the decade in Doubt)
Secondly, we seriously need to stop being so lazy with quizzes when it comes to putting in alternate spellings. Carol O'Connor is how 99.9% of people are gonna think it's spelled. It would have taken very little effort to put in that alt spelling. C'mon. |
