What's funny about that? I didn't watch GoT, but Boardwalk Empire was not very good at all. The production design was exemplary but everything else was, to my mind, mediocre.

Have you actually seen "Friday Night Lights"!? Because he absolutely should have won. Even if he was awarded for it's entire run. That statue was his.

I'm not a Mad Men hater. I don't hate anything that is subjective. But I watched the first 6 episodes of season 1, and it was 6 of the most boring hours of TV i ever watched. Apparently I just don't get it. Does it get better?

Yep, Empire's one of those shows that looks better than it actually is.

When it comes to FNL, it seems there are two camps: people who hate it and can't understand why it gets the awards and acclaim, and people who have seen the show.
Really good to see Jason Katims and Kyle Chandler win. Very well deserved. While I love Mad Men I was still hoping FNL would win for best drama. Although I thought Game of Thrones out shined them both. Modern Family was pretty flawless this season except for maybe some weaker episodes towards the end... but Parks and Rec was robbed. |

Increasingly, I tend to find a certain segment of one show's fan-base consistently wanting to hassle the other. A bit infantile, but you're of course free to assume anything you'd like. I'd say many of us enjoy both.

Now who's the one making assumptions, because I love Mad Men. I wasn't trying to "hassle" anyone.

Very realistic portrayal of small town life and how football brings the community together. It's also about a family (The Taylors) who are the central characters of the show. Some of the characters on the show are actually poor and struggling to survive.
Let me put it to you this way. The show is loosely based on the story of the 1988 Permian Panthers High School team from Texas, which was the story of the feature film. If that story or the feature film didn't interest you, then you probably won't care for the show. But, don't automatically write it off as some frivilous cheese ball fluff.

All of the snubbed actors with multiple nominations are in excellent company being losers.
