The Constant was definitely the best episode lost could have submitted. Not only was it one of the best of the season, but it's fairly complete, as in it's one of the few episodes you could watch without much back story. Great choice.

Conchords RULE!! I hope they make the cut - their series is the best thing on TV. But no Big Bang Theory? C'mon!!

Well, again I will not be watching the Emmy show. They seem determine to snub CSI:Crime Scene Investigation.

Yes, the GA episode is just part 1 of "Freedom" (according to our secret judge reports).

Were the judges' reports wrong about Freedom, Part 1 being all they saw then?
