The SAG Award Nominations just came out this morning. I'm not going to take the time to prep all them for posting (also I'm ticked at SAG right now), but you can see them here.


I have thoughts on the TV nominations, but I'm hoping to complete an end-of-the-year TV column, so I'll save my accolades for that. I haven't seen most of the movies, which isn't a surprise, since they often don't come out until late December or even January!

I was shocked THE DARK KNIGHT didn't get a Best Picture nod. I thought it would be a lock. I guess we'll see how Oscar thinks in a few weeks.

WHAT ABOUT YOU?

What have you seen, and do you agree with these nominations? Disagree? Why?
