The surprises in today's announced Emmy Award nominees are minimal (Mad Men, Downton Abbey, Modern Family, yadda yadda), but the exaltation of Lena Dunham's HBO hit Girls and the lack of loving for Parks & Recreation leaves plenty to discuss. Check out the full list of nominees after the jump!
While the Academy is guilty of a gross oversight by not tossing RuPaul or Parks & Rec a bone, it did, however, honor Amy Poehler yet again with a Best Actress nod.
Speaking of nods, young Lena Dunham received three for her work on Girls (actress, writer, director). Of other gaydored interests, Kathy Griffin's selflessly charitable work on the humanitarian documentary Tired Hooker is up for a Best Variety trophy. Also of note, Glee's Dot Marie Jones (Coach Beiste), openly gay Jim Parsons of The Big Bang Theory, and Melissa McCarthy's hilarious SNL hosting gig all received nominations.
Here's the full list of the nominations. Do you think the Emmy nomination committee committed any major snubs?
