THE CREEPIES...TV SEASON AWARDS


This is my favorite time of the year. My annual TV awards. Since I used to go by the moniker TV CREEP, we'll call the awards the Creepies. Awards will be given out for best acting, best actressing (yeah, I said it), best show for the entire season, best finale, and best new show. Since all of the finales haven't landed yet I will hold off on that until the last episode of The Sopranos, The Shield, and One Tree Hill have aired.

But we can get on with the rest.

Best Actress on TV Show, comedy or drama.

5. Sandra Oh (Yang)- Grey's Anatomy
The high strung intern has always been an intriguing character, but the closing minutes
of this season sealed the deal for her making the list.

4. Jaime Pressly (Joy)- My Name Is Earl
She might not have Oscar-caliber acting chops, but she can bring you to tears in a heartbeat with her perfect timing and zesty zing.

3. Edie Falco (Carmela)- The Sopranos
The first lady of the family business; we ache with her as she deals with the loss of friends
and the constant threat of losing her family.

2. Elizabeth Mitchell (Juliete)- Lost
Has any character been more polarizing? I've loved her, hated her, and loved her again. She is truly a mystery among mysteries.

1. Sally Field (Nora)- Brothers and Sisters
She is absolutely wonderful. Both stern in her political views and so lovable when it
comes to protecting her family. She deserves an Emmy, no doubt.

Honorable Mentions: Kristen Bell (Veronica Mars) Calista Flockhart (Brothers and Sisters) Kyra Sedgwick (The Closer) and Katherine Heigl (Grey's Anatomy)

Best Actor on a TV Show Comedy or Drama

5. Steve Carell (Michael) - The Office
He isn't close to likable. He's not even the funniest character. But he manages to bring you back each week for more cringe-worthy scenes.

4. Michael Chiklis (Vic)- The Shield
He's sooooo bad, but you still find a way to root for him. That takes skill.

3. William Shatner (Denny) - Boston Legal
Yeah, THAT William Shatner. Makes me laugh every week...I think it's the mad cow.

2. Walton Goggins (Shane)- The Shield
He's the new face of evil and no one has given a more tortured performance this season.

1. Hugh Laurie (House)- House
Mr. Cranky Pants is the best character on television right now.

Honorable Mentions: James Spader (Boston Legal) James Gandolfini (The Sopranos) Zack Braff (Scrubs) and Michael Emerson (Lost)
