Hi GMMR, long-time lurker first time poster. I have to say that was like having to choose between my children (that is, if I had children)!
Welcome Sarah!!! I know. Everytime I voted against faves like “The Office” and “Veronica Mars” it broke my heart.
no joke. i had a hard time choosing between The Office, VM and Prison Break
Gahhhh! Why must they make me choose! It’s not fair!
😉
In the end I just ended up voting for the underdog, which was usually Veronica Mars. 😉
I voted for anything Office (b/c i’ve never seen some of the other shows), especially for anything Jim/Pam related. For “Future Husband Kristin Should Just Go Ahead and Marry” I voted for John Krasinski, b/c i want him to get as many as possible…but for someone reason voting him in that certain category…just made me sad. I was real tempted to vote someone else ^_^
Nooooo…that was the only category you were NOT supposed to vote for John in. I claimed him LONG before Kristin even knew who he was 🙂 ha ha
Gotta go with Katherine Heigl as my breakout female favorite. That girl is just so fine. Jenna Fischer from The Office is not too far behind though.

GMMR, don’t worry, I’m still trying to hatch “Operation Marry Krasinski”… but I think I’m too nice to be an evil genius. Does it help if I’m a nice genius?
Who did you pick for drama mama? None of them were bold…at least not on my computer.
That was really tough, but I voted for who I thought should win and not necessarily who I want to win. Like I would love for Jenna Fischer to win the comedy category, but c’mon Lauren Graham is funnier. And while I love the Jam relationship, we barely see Roy enough to even consider it a triangle. So I went with the Lost people on that one.
Ya’ll watch too much TV. Read a book or take a walk, just turn the dam TV off. Katherine Heigl sucks in everything, wtf hired her? Kristin form E! is so phony. Can’t stand that dumb twit.

All of the selections were in bold for me so I couldn’t tell what GMMR’s favorites are! I hope VM wins all of their catergories. I can’t believe Reunion wasn’t listed in the biggest disappointment catergory. And Anna-Seth-Summer love triangle on the OC? Its not 2004 anymore!
Wonderful and informative web site.I used information from that site its great.
