2009 SAG Nominations: Who Got Snubbed?

Source: EW.com

L. to the no! The Screen Actors Guild announced its 2009 nominees this morning, and although the major TV categories look remarkably similar to last year's nominees list, there are a few notable snubs -- namely Vanessa "L. Yeah" Williams for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Comedy Series. I can faintly hear Slezak's cringe-y auditory melee of sobs and chokes from a few doors down. The Ugly Betty cast didn't receive an ensemble nomination, either, which to me is the biggest snub because seriously? Entourage again? REALLY?! Even the two-dimensional kids from South Park would make more sense. One snub I definitely agree with this year: The increasingly infuriating cast of Grey's Anatomy. While they were busy sleeping with ghosts and performing unnecessary appendectomies on each other, a different gaggle of hot docs (from House) usurped them. We've posted the complete list of 2009 SAG nominees after the jump. Be sure to catch Dave Karger's reaction to the nominees for the five film categories over at EW.com's Oscar Watch blog, and let us know in the comments section which film and TV actors you think got the prickliest shoulder this year.
