If I had made a bet with a friend, I'd lost. He got most of the nominees right! Good for him. Spot on analysis.
Bummed for some categories. There's no Lost nor Pushing Daisies nomination for Golden Globes this year. Hmph!
The complete nominee list is on the official site, I took the ones only for Television.
The winners will be awarded January 2009.
