Yeah I saw this today. Congrats to the nominees, although of course I too was saddened to see no Foster's episodes made the list. I'm kind of surprised that Lazlo episode made the list. I like that show (and miss it, CN hasn't been airing it, either), but I didn't find it to be the best episode. I'm happy to see Chowder listed, though. Hmm, I hope Chowder wins that one.

Why is Spongebob still getting nominated? It absoulutely sucks now. Everything before the movie was awesome & the movie was pretty good too. But now it's just so unfunny.

Foster's could still nab one of the special juried Emmys. They're not part of the nomination process, but an Emmy is still an Emmy.

The reason I asked was that considering the Avatar finale airs on Saturday (US time), you'd think they would wait until that aired in case the Emmy guys change their minds and put them in for consideration. That's just me, though.
I'm happy that Robot Chicken got nominated again! I've yet to see the Star Wars special.

Hmmm... out of those shows listed, the only one that I've seen that would get my vote would be King of the Hill. That was a very touching episode but the ending left me grinding my teeth and asking "why?". The Blue Harvest Family Guy episode just didn't live up to the hype (to much homage, not enough parody) and the Robot Chicken Star Wars special reused several (though funny) related skits.

That is true, though granted one of those skits "The Emperor/Darth Vader phone call sketch" was the funniest thing they have done in the history of the series so I can forgive them for that.
