I'm preparing the thread, and when I begin the official thread, I'll be accepting ballots. Should be in an hour or two.

[font=Arial Black] ALIAS FYC
Part Three: Recap.[/font]
So thats
Alias for Best Drama
(Other Choices: Don't be stupid)
Jennifer Garner for Lead Actress in a Drama
(Other Choices: Heh. Ellen Pompeo. No im totally kidding don't be stupid.)
Victor Garber for Supporting Actor
(Other Choices: Ron Rifkin, Kevin Weisman, Carl Lumbly and Balthazar Getty)
Rachel Nichols for Supporting Actress
(Other Choices: Amy Acker)

(Other Choies: Gina Torres, Brad Cooper, David Anders, Mia Maestro, Merrin Dungey and Greg Grunberg)
All The Time in the World for Best Special Episode
(Other Choices: S.O.S, Prophet Five)
Maternal Instinct for Best Single Episode
(Other Choies: 30 Seconds, I See Dead People, Horizon, Theres Only One Sydney Bristow Im only saying Maternal Instinct because it was the best episode aside from the finale, im not sure if you're allowed to nominate the finale for single episode too.)
Alias has provided us five years of amazing entertainment, Wether you were a fan back then, or you were a die hard all along, or maybe you watched the show every now and then, Now is the time to say thank you to Alias by awarding it in its eligible categories. Not only did the show pick up creatively after what many argued was a dissapointing slump in season 3 and 4, but Alias finally came full circle in classic style. With incredible acting from its leads, especially so from the fantastic Jennifer Garner who made this show her own the minute she walked on screen back in 2001, Alias deserves your recognition more than anything else this season. There will be many more seasons of shows like 24, Greys Anatomy and Lost. But Alias is over.
Do not let its memory be squandered because of poor ratings thanks to a dumb move by ABC. Give Alias the dignity it deserves and help it sweep the board.
Heres two clips that might help you decide.

Although the show was a bit of a stinker, nominate Lisa Kudrow who was nonetheless often brilliant in The Comeback:
Lead actress in a comedy.

Ah, the joys of YouTube.
House does have a pretty cool intro. Vote for that, people. And Weeds, too, which was posted earlier.
Big Love's intro is kind of ridiculous. But I like it:
<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/UpCQx2q72FY" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed>
Rome has a pretty cool intro:
<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/zIAJTFpdaW4" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed>
The coolest intro on TV, though, has got to be Huff's, which won the Emmy for main title sequence last year. I couldn't find it in fantastic YouTube form (I can't imagine why, the show is so popular and all) but did find in old school Quicktime:
http://www.boardsmag.com/screeningroom/animation/1952/
The most beautiful, appropriate, most artistic credits ever (EVAR), I think, though, are Six Feet Under's. Again, no YouTube glory, but Quicktime, yes:
http://www.hbo.com/sixfeetunder/credits/index.shtml# (should be on the bottom right; the sequence doesn't actually have the actor credits, but it is the same sequence)
So vote for some of those!

Huff and House I think have the two best main title sequences. And Huff has the oddest, off-beat main title theme.

Yeah, Huff's a little wacky. The intro itself, though, if you guys aren't familiar with the show, revolves around a psychiatrist, hence the frames of events and people and weird stuff and such.
And if you guys watch the Six Feet Under one and haven't seen it before, it's the journey of a dead body, pretty much. I think it's the best one.

Whenever I hear the "You are so beautiful" line towards the end of the sequence, I get the chills.
That's how I like Huff so much.

Warning: The following ad may contain spoilers from the 5th season of Alias.
Irina:
You like it to be simple... it's never simple.
Irina:
You should know something Sydney...
I never wanted to have a child. The KGB demanded it. They knew it would ensure your father's allegiance to me. You were simply a means to an end. And then when the doctor put you in my arms and I looked at you... so fragile All I could think was 'How could I have made such a terrinly mistake?' And at that moment I was sure of one thing: I couldn't be an agent and a mother. I'd either fail at one or both. I chose to fail as a mother.
In time you'll see you can't do both.
Sydney:
WATCH ME!
BEST SINGLE EPISODE: MATERNAL INSTINCT, ALIAS

Oh, yeah! Please nominate Lisa Kudrow for The Comeback.
Still probably the best performance in a mediocre program ever.

Television Critics laud "Office," "24"
Wednesday May 31 4:01 PM ET
The critics love "The Office," "My Name is Earl," "The Sopranos" and "24."
The shows earned three nominations apiece Wednesday for the 22nd annual Television Critics Association Awards.
The TCA Awards, determined by the 200-plus members of the Television Critics Association, will be handed out July 23 in Los Angeles.
NBC's "The Office" earned TCA Award bids for program of the year, comedy series and an individual achievement in comedy for star Steve Carell. The network's "My Name is Earl" snared nominations for comedy series, new program of the year and for individual achievement in comedy for star Jason Lee.
HBO's "Sopranos" and Fox's "24" earned program of the year and comedy series bids. "Sopranos" star James Gandolfini was recognized for individual achievement in drama, as was "24's" Kiefer Sutherland

I don't know if that's necessarily indicative of anything, but I'd love to see The Office, which hasn't been pegged to score a best comedy nomination, finagle one over My Name is Earl, which has.
