			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Oh hi there! Nice to see you. <a href="http://www.goldenglobes.org/blog/2011/12/the-69th-annual-golden-globe-awards-nominations/">The 2012 Golden Globe nominations</a> came out this morning, which means I’m back as your resident Awards enthusiast to give the deets on what was nominated and how I feel about that.</p>
<p>After glancing over the full list of nominees, my first thought was &#8211; well, this is much better than yesterday’s <span style="color: #000099;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://ca.eonline.com/news/complete_list_of_sag_award_nominations/280586">SAG</a> <a href="http://ca.eonline.com/news/complete_list_of_sag_award_nominations/280586">nominations</a></span></span>. Second thought was &#8211; <em>Mildred Pierce</em> is STILL around and kicking? I thought that was over and done with. Third (Fourth and Fifth) thought was -I’m sorry, what? Huh? Excuse me?</p>
<p>The thing to remember about the Golden Globes is that you can’t really take them seriously. I mean, come on. Last year <em>The Tourist</em> was nominated, just so Angelina Jolie had a reason to show up. And remember when Piper Perabo and Jennifer Love Hewitt got nominated in the same year? That alone should tell you all you need to know about the importance of these golden statues.</p>
<p align="LEFT">But regardless of its reputation for star power and pretty girls over quality, the Golden Globes are still a very fun show to watch. Film and television stars get photographed together and everyone gets drunk. Speaking of film, this year’s film nominations are actually pretty good, but since this is The Televixen, emphasis on the <em>Tele, </em>all my focus is going towards the television nominees.</p>
<p>What’s especially interesting about the timing of the Golden Globes is that rookie Fall shows can creep into the nominations. And they did in the form of <em>Boss</em> (Starz), <em>Enlightened</em> (HBO), <em>Homeland</em> (Showtime) and <em>New Girl</em> (FOX), which all picked up Best Series and Leading Actor/Actress nominations.</p>
<p>In the drama department, I can deem <em>Homeland</em> a worthy nominee, but I can’t vouch for <em>Boss</em>. I guess something had to take <em>Mad Men</em>’s place. But maybe it should have been, I don’t know, <em>Breaking Bad</em> over, I’m sorry, what? <em>American Horror Story</em>? Don’t get me wrong, I’m enjoying the FX series just fine, and think Jessica Lange is worthy of her Supporting nod, but the show itself is quite the stretch. Rounding out the Best Drama category is <em>Boardwalk Empire</em>, and <em>Game of Thrones</em> (Woo!).</p>
<p>The acting nominations are a mix of &#8211; good call (the men), and huh? Excuse me? (the women). Bryan Cranston (<em>Breaking Bad</em>) is back in the game after being ineligible for the Emmys, and joining him is Steve Buscemi (<em>Boardwalk Empire</em>), Damian Lewis (<em>Homeland</em>), Jeremy Irons (<em>The Borgias</em>) and Kelsey Grammer (<em>Boss</em>).</p>
<p>Over to the ladies, I’m not surprised to see Mireille Enos (<em>The Killing</em>) or Julianna Margulies (<em>The Good Wife</em>), and am quite happy to see Claire Danes (<em>Homeland</em>), who was, for some reason, left off the SAG list. But let’s throw a big HUH to Madeleine Stowe for <em>Revenge</em> and excuse me to Callie Thorne for <em>Necessary Roughness</em>. Okay, I’ll confess. I’m not watching <em>Revenge</em>. I gave up after one episode. I know it’s popular, and my friends are quite enjoying it, but it is my understanding that this is a primetime soap, that actually, I thought aired on The CW. And my excuse me to Callie Thorne has more to do with the fact that it’s for USA Network’s <em>Necessary Roughness</em>. But I suppose, going back to my earlier point about not taking the Golden Globes seriously, I shouldn’t be surprised.</p>
<p>Moving onto comedy, <em>Glee</em> and <em>Modern Family</em> enjoy another year of being nominated, and are joined by the previously mentioned <em>Enlightened</em>, <em>Episodes</em>, and <em>New Girl</em>.</p>
<p><em>Glee</em> is such a lazy nomination, as I don’t think it has been intentionally funny once this year, but hey, at least none of the actors got nominated, right? You know who did get nominated? Alec Baldwin (<em>30 Rock</em>), David Duchovny (<em>Californication</em>), Johnny Galecki (<em>The Big Bang Theory</em>), Thomas Jane (<em>Hung</em>) and Matt LeBlanc (<em>Episodes</em>). No strong emotions from me on any of these.</p>
<p align="LEFT">I’m really happy with the comedic actress nominations as once again Laura Linney is nominated for her superb work on <em>The Big C</em>. Amy Poehler continues to represent the NBC show that could, <em>Parks and Recreation, </em>and as long as <em>30 Rock</em> is on the air, Tina Fey should always be present in this category. Newbies include the adorkable (sooooorry) Zooey Deschanel and Laura Dern for <em>New Girl</em> and <em>Enlightened </em>respectively.</p>
<p align="LEFT">Perhaps the most fun category to watch is the Supporting categories. Here the Hollywood Foreign Press Association lump all supporting players from drama, comedy and made-for-TV movie/miniseries in one category to duke it out.</p>
<p align="LEFT">It means I get to legitimately mention the names Peter Dinklage (<em>Game of Thrones)</em>, Paul Giamatti (<em>Too Big To Fail</em>), Guy Pierce (<em>Mildred Pierce</em>), Tim Robbins (<em>Cinema Verite</em>) and Eric Stonestreet (<em>Modern Family</em>) in one sentence.</p>
<p align="LEFT">The fun continues with the ladies as Jessica Lange (<em>American Horror Story</em>), Kelly Macdonald (<em>Boardwalk Empire</em>), Maggie Smith (<em>Downton Abbey</em>), Sofia Vergara (<em>Modern Family</em>) and Evan Rachel Wood (<em>Mildred Pierce</em>) get to go head-to-head.</p>
<p align="LEFT">These categories are actually way too random to call.</p>
<p align="LEFT">And speaking of made-for-TV movies and miniseries, let’s not forget those nominees: <span style="color: #222222;"><em>Cinema Verite, Downton Abbey, The Hour, Mildred Pierce, </em></span><span style="color: #222222;">and</span><span style="color: #222222;"><em> Too Big To Fail. </em></span><span style="color: #222222;">Hugh Bonneville (</span><span style="color: #222222;"><em>Downton Abbey</em></span><span style="color: #222222;">), Idris Elba (</span><span style="color: #222222;"><em>Luther</em></span><span style="color: #222222;">), William Hurt (</span><span style="color: #222222;"><em>Too Big To Fail</em></span><span style="color: #222222;">), Bill Nighy (</span><span style="color: #222222;"><em>Page Eight</em></span><span style="color: #222222;">), and Dominic West (</span><span style="color: #222222;"><em>The Hour</em></span><span style="color: #222222;">). Romola Garai (</span><span style="color: #222222;"><em>The Hour</em></span><span style="color: #222222;">), Diane Lane (</span><span style="color: #222222;"><em>Cinema Verite</em></span><span style="color: #222222;">), Elizabeth McGovern (</span><span style="color: #222222;"><em>Downton Abbey</em></span><span style="color: #222222;">), Emily Watson (</span><span style="color: #222222;"><em>Appropriate Adult</em></span><span style="color: #222222;">), and Kate Winslet (</span><span style="color: #222222;"><em>Mildred </em></span><span style="color: #222222;"><em>Pierce</em></span><span style="color: #222222;">). Look for Downton Abbey to dominate.</span></p>
<p>And there you have them! Watch the Golden Globes one month from today to see who wins and who falls victim to Ricky Gervais’s opening monologue.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Happy Sunday! This is slightly stunning, so brace yourselves: Netflix is so desperate for some good publicity that they&#8217;re bringing back <em>Arrested Development.</em> <a href="http://www.avclub.com/articles/yes-there-will-be-more-arrested-development-thanks,65439/">Yes, really.</a> I know this sounds like a joke, but I swear it isn&#8217;t, as far as I can tell.</p>
<p>When you&#8217;ve recovered from the shock, let&#8217;s move on to a roundup of the midseason scheduling news the networks announced this week . . .</p>
<p>At ABC: <a href="http://www.deadline.com/2011/11/abc-announces-midseason-premiere-dates-gcb-gets-post-desperate-slot/">Midseason premiere dates:</a> January 3: <em>Work It,</em> February 7: <em>The River,</em> March 4: <em>GCB,</em> March 15: <em>Missing.</em> <em>Body of Proof</em> is getting <a href="http://www.deadline.com/2011/11/abcs-body-of-proof-gets-order-for-3-more-episodes/">three more episodes,</a> for a total of 21, while <em>Pan Am</em> may be getting one more and <em>Man Up</em> will be done at 13. <em>Cougar Town</em> is not on the schedule yet (though ABC swears it will be, probably in March), and has had its order cut from <a href="http://www.tvguide.com/News/ABC-Cuts-Cougar-Town-1039935.aspx">22 episodes to 15.</a> Also not yet scheduled: <a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/cougar-town-scandal-apartment-23-abc-263693"><em>Don&#8217;t Trust the B&#8212;- in Apt. 23</em> and <em>Scandal.</em></a></p>
<p>At NBC: <a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/nbc-sets-midseason-schedule-moves-261209">More midseason premiere dates!</a> <em>The Firm</em> is set for January 8, <em>Are You There, Chelsea?</em> for January 11, and <em>Smash</em> for February 6. <em>Up All Night</em> and <em>Whitney</em> are switching timeslots, <em>Harry&#8217;s Law</em> is moving to Sundays. Speaking of <em>Harry&#8217;s Law,</em> it&#8217;s getting <a href="http://www.deadline.com/2011/11/nbc-to-give-harrys-law-full-season-order-prime-suspect-gone/">a full season,</a> and <em>Grimm</em> is getting more episodes, while <em>Prime Suspect</em> is <a href="http://www.avclub.com/articles/nbc-shuts-down-production-on-prime-suspect,65186/">more or less gone.</a> <em>Community</em> is <a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/prime-suspect-community-nbc-261221">not on the midseason schedule,</a> but NBC promises it will return eventually.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, over at CBS, the order for <em>Rules of Engagement</em> has been <a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/rules-engagement-episode-order-cut-261162">cut to 13 episodes</a> so they can fit in the new Rob Schneider show. That show is now called <em>¡Rob!,</em> and I would like to register my objection to any character not on a standard keyboard being used in a show&#8217;s title. Anyway, it&#8217;s premiering <a href="http://www.deadline.com/2011/11/cbs-slots-new-rob-schneider-comedy-undercover-boss-for-midseason/">January 12 at 8:30.</a> <em>A Gifted Man</em> got a <a href="http://www.deadline.com/2011/11/cbs-gives-a-gifted-man-3-episode-order/">three-episode back order.</a></p>
<p>Showtime has <a href="http://www.hitfix.com/blogs/whats-alan-watching/posts/showtime-renews-dexter-for-2-more-seasons">renewed <em>Dexter</em></a> for two more seasons.</p>
<p>FX has <a href="http://www.deadline.com/2011/11/fx-passes-on-outlaw-country-will-redevelop-powers/">given up on <em>Outlaw Country</em></a> but is still working on <em>Powers.</em></p>
<p>Finale news: If you&#8217;d like to see the title of the <em>Chuck</em> series finale, <a href="http://www.tvline.com/2011/11/chuck-season-5-episode-13-series-finale-title/">click here.</a> The <em>American Horror Story</em> finale will be <a href="http://www.deadline.com/2011/11/american-horror-story-two-hour-finale-will-be-trimmed-to-90-minutes/">90 minutes</a> rather than the previously-advertised two hours.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t always talk about miniseries here, but this is so exciting that I have to mention it: <a href="http://www.deadline.com/2011/11/hbo-and-bbc-developing-wolf-hall-mini-with-tinker-tailor-soldier-spy-writer/"><em>Wolf Hall!</em></a> From the writers of <em>Tinker Tailor!</em> Sometimes I think Deadline writes its headlines just for me.</p>
<p>And in other miniseries-too-good-not-to-cover news, the new series of <em>Downtown Abbey</em> and <em>Sherlock</em> will be <a href="http://insidetv.ew.com/2011/11/17/pbs-releases-details-on-downton-abbey-sherlock-returns-and-announces-clinton-special/">premiering on PBS</a> on January 8 and May 6, respectively.</p>
<p><em>The Munsters</em> is <a href="http://www.deadline.com/2011/11/its-official-nbc-picks-up-bryan-fullers-reboot-of-the-munsters-to-pilot/">still on track</a> at NBC.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Happy Sunday! We&#8217;re getting to that point in the development cycle when most of the casting we see is for new pilots, so you&#8217;ll be seeing a lot of unfamiliar show names in the casting section starting this week and going forward. But even though you don&#8217;t care about these <em>shows</em> yet, I figure you may care about some of the <em>people</em> involved, so scan through for familiar names! And if you&#8217;d like to know more about a certain show, if you click through to the articles I link, they usually give you a little summary. If there&#8217;s a particular show in development that intrigues you, let me know and I&#8217;ll be sure to follow that one closely!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Happy Sunday! And we&#8217;re off to the races: The first of the new fall shows to be picked up for a full season was, unsurprisingly, <a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/fox-gives-full-season-pickup-241684"><em>New Girl</em></a>. But Starz has such faith in <em>Boss</em> that they&#8217;re <a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/starz-renews-kelsey-grammer-boss-240741">giving it a second season</a> even though it hasn&#8217;t premiered yet. (None of the new shows have been cancelled. Yet.)</p>
<p>The <em>Chuck</em> and <em>Grimm</em> premiere dates have been <a href="http://www.hitfix.com/blogs/whats-alan-watching/posts/nbc-moves-chuck-grimm-premiere-dates-back-a-week">pushed back a week</a>, to October 28. Doesn&#8217;t sound like this is a reason for alarm &#8211; they wanted to be able to market <em>Grimm</em> with a Halloween connection.</p>
<p>NBC has ordered <a href="http://www.tvguide.com/News/Parenthood-Episodes-Ordered-1038302.aspx?rss=breakingnews">two more episodes of <em>Parenthood</em></a>, bringing the season up to 18.</p>
<p>If you can&#8217;t wait for Season Two of <em>The Walking Dead</em>, check out the new <a href="http://www.tvguide.com/News/AMC-Walking-Dead-Webisodes-1038189.aspx">webisodes</a>.</p>
<p>Fans of various flavors of supernatural dramas, get excited: <a href="http://www.deadline.com/2011/09/jj-abramseric-kripke-thriller-revolution-gets-production-commitment-at-nbc/">Eric Kripke</a>, <a href="http://www.avclub.com/articles/xfiles-creator-chris-carter-figures-he-may-as-well,62583/?utm_medium=RSS">Chris Carter</a>, <a href="http://www.deadline.com/2011/09/serial-killer-drama-from-kevin-williamson-lands-at-fox-with-put-pilot-commitment/">Kevin Williamson</a>, and <a href="http://www.tvguide.com/News/ABC-Carlton-Cuse-Stronger-1038292.aspx">Carlton Cuse</a> all have new shows in the works.</p>
<p>Terry O&#8217;Quinn will be on <a href="http://www.tvguide.com/News/Kecks-Exclusives-Terry-1038165.aspx">even more <em>Hawaii Five-0</em></a>.</p>
<p>Rob Schneider&#8217;s family comedy will be <a href="http://www.deadline.com/2011/09/cbs-gives-rob-schneiders-family-comedy-midseason-series-order/">coming to CBS at midseason</a>, which is good news for me since I love Diana Maria Riva.</p>
<p>Dillon Casey has <a href="http://www.deadline.com/2011/09/tv-castings-dillon-casey-upped-on-nikita-sutton-foster-to-star-in-bunheads-more/">become a regular</a> on <em>Nikita</em>.</p>
<p>ESPN is <a href="http://www.deadline.com/2011/09/espn-sells-first-project-as-scripted-series-producer-sports-fan-comedy-to-abc/">trying to get into the scripted TV business again</a>.</p>
<p>Pilot-buying season is still going strong, so let&#8217;s get an update there:</p>
