Emmy Award Nominations Announced; 24, Grey's Anatomy Lead the Way

How did we do in our predictions for the 58th Primetime Emmy Awards? Not too shabby … ignoring the fact that our pick for Best Drama, Lost, wasn't even nominated. Putting aside that utter inanity, the list of nominees on major categories was announced this morning:
