2011 Emmy Award Nominations

The Academy of Television Arts & Sciences has just announced the nominees for the 63rd Primetime Emmy Awards!

There’s definitely going to be some tough ones in those nominations, and I wish that The Walking Dead was on there somewhere, anywhere! Even though the last episode and a half weren’t nearly as good as the beginning, it was still pretty awesome.

Alot of the usual faces are in the nominations again as well, Tina Fey, Alec Baldwin, The entire cast of Modern Family (and they all totally deserve it).

The 63rd Primetime Emmys will air live on Sunday, Sept. 18 (8pm ET / 5pm PT) on Fox. Glee star Jane Lynch will host.
