Complete underappreciation of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Summer Glau for Best Supporting Actress was a GIVEN, and I'm with the readers in the best drama category as well. Again, I'm very disappointed. I am VERY disappointed with the editors’ choices! Complete underappreciation of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles.

I agree more with the editors one. And since when is Pushing Daisies a drama? It's a comedy. There are only some slight dramatic aspects in there, and even those are dealt with in a comedic way.

That is not only because the show wasnt as good then as in the last few eps but also viewers werent so excited about the whole cancel thing. At the moment people would do anything to save TSCC which means mass vote too. Still, I think some of the readers awards are well deserved and too bad that Terminator didnt get any editors awards.

However, I was very disappointed when I read through the Editors' list a bit closer. I only voted ONE category the same as you did and that is "Best Lead Actor in a Comedy Series: Jim Parsons" Glad to see, other readers felt the same way. Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles is such an amazing show and it really deserved to win! The difference between those lists is astonishing!
