I'd love to see a table with Omar from The Wire and Seth MacFarlane. Not the actor who played Omar, but Omar--I'd love to see how that plays out.

Ah! All of those women do (or have, or do in reruns (julia) or never do (weeds girl) make me laugh and smile so much.
I realize that was the least well-communicated sentence possible, but I think you understand. So much love.
Throw me some Tina and we're happy. Who needs men in comedy?

and I was totally right, too.
watched the "comedy actors" youtube (because the female comedians are just "women of comedy"?? ugh) and the men were terribly boring, only really liked John Krasinski. Shut up, Jon Cryer.

They posted that so fast they posted it a week before the nominations were announced.

I smells conspiracy.

sarah silverman is MUCH funnier when she's just being candid. no more rehearsing for you, sarah.
and all the other women in the room - i'm looking at YOU, mary louise parker - are playing to her... sarah silverman's the HBIC, if you didn't already know.
