Well as usual two or three of the nominations for drama series are history.
Mabye television producers have more on the ball than we give them credit
for, mediocrity tends to be more successful on television than excellence.

The only thing I would change on the drama series nominations would be to
replace "Law and Order" with either "Homocide" or "Tribeca".

    Roseanne didn't get nominated again this year?  The show itself I mean.
    Why Not!?!?!??   I can't believe it.  I mean not one year has it been
    even nominated?
    
    I have a question.... Shows like Melrose Place and Beverly Hills 90210
    are soooo hot.  How come they are not nominate?  I mean Melrose has
    been excellent especially since Heather Locklear has been on it. Would
    they not fit into any of those categories?
    
    Just wondering.

    good question ! why not Roseanne (the show)....there were a few good
    ones this year too !
    
    why not MP & 90210....I guess the people who do the nominating are not 
    that bad at their jobs ! :')
