Hmmm. Interesting. I would have thought that George Eads would have gone in for supporting, but it's cool to see him take a step up to Lead. I can picture PG going in for supporting before RDH. But maybe it's just me.
 
I really hope Emily wins something, she's been doing such a great work on CSI:Miami and this season was one of the best for her to show how talented she is!!!

Gooooo Emily :thumbsup:

And all the others too :D
 
You know? These sumbissions always crack me up.
IDK, they always seem to me like strange submissions made in order to make everyone happy ;)

As for the submission, I agree with csifann1, hopefully they'll take her into consideration, at least :p

I have to agree with you there. I mean I love AJ and all and think he's fantastic, but Eddie so deserves to be put up.

I'm happy Melina's been put up. And I agree with csifann that Emily should win something :)

I'm pretty sure the actors submit themselves for consideration.

So you're telling me that, probably, Eva La Rue, who has been on CSI:Miami for possibely 5 seconds in this season (oh yeah she had an episode), submitted herself for consideration? "Pfff", sorry, but I'll say that it's even weirder than I could have imagined :rolleyes:
 
Faylinn's right. It's the actors and their management/agency that decide whether to submit or which category to submit for. It's interesting to see how actors and their "people" play the game. lol.
 
i think they mostly do it cuz everybody does it, but we all know nobody from CSI ever gets a nod, not to mention an Emmy (except when the original show was new.) i'm still kind of surprised they continue doing it knowing it's for nothing. it's probably the agents' job to a certain degree, though.
 
Thanks for the explantion, though it still leaves me :wtf:.

Maybe they think it can't hurt anything.It is strange that the actors just submit themselves (and their agency/management). Perhaps for some it's for publicity even if it's limited.
 
I'm sure the actors know (at times) that it's pointless as far as actually getting nominated, but the work is likely done by the actors' publicists/management,& they're probably just doing thier job by pushing the actor/actress towards being recognized by the academy.

Well to me, when you keep submitting people knowing that, no matter what, the Academy is going to ignore you...well it's just useless and it's going to hurt someone. I mean if the Academy keeps ignoring the three CSIs, what can people think of these shows which keep submitting with no results? Surely, they're stubborn, but then again, what else?
IDK, this isn't that kind of publicity I'd look for my client, if I were an Agency :p
