I have a feeling Boston Legal will be taking home some awards. They'll probably win it for Best Drama Ensemble (they definitely deserve it this season), and either James Spder or Shatner could win (I think Shatner has an especially good shot this year).

I hope Boston Legal fails hard. Carl Sack doesn't deserve it.

What do you know - 30 Rocks wins multiple awards . . . again!!!

This is starting to get really annoying. Give some other shows a chance . . .

Surprised Boston Legal didn't win anything. They usually do good with the SAG awards.
