Our secret Emmy judge No. 3 predicts 'Family Guy,' '30 Rock,' 'Pushing Daisies,' 'Two and a Half Men' and 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' as comedy series nominees

June 29, 2008 |  8:06 pm

After attending one of the Emmy panels that weighed 10 sample episodes of best comedy series on Sunday, our secret judge No. 3 reports: "I'd say the slam-dunks to be nominated are 'Curb Your Enthusiasm,' 'Family Guy,' 'Pushing Daisies,' '30 Rock' and 'Two and a Half Men.'"

Like most other tattling judges, he contacted us via Blackberry after exiting the panel. I wrote back to inform him of what our secret judge No. 1 says — that "Curb" is "on the bubble" in his view, and has to hope for "Family Guy" or "The Office" to stumble if it hopes to land in the high five.

"Totally disagree about 'Enthusiasm,' " he replied. "Members were falling out of their chairs. It was my top choice. Definitely beats out 'Office.' While we never miss 'Entourage' episodes when telecast, the episode they chose to show (betting on getting laid) laid an egg with my group, including me."

Compare this report to the tattle of Emmy judge No. 1 (HERE) and No. 2 (HERE).

Tom O'Neil's diligence and hard work would be more enjoyable if the link for best supporting actor in the drama category ACTUALLY led to that information coming up! My diligence expired after three efforts in vain.
