    As much as I love the theme music for "Stargate: Atlantis", I gotta go with that delightful "Foster's Home" theme.

    And yay for "Family Guy". Here's hoping it wins.

    I hope Jack and Star Wars make Genndy proud again. As for the title theme music, I have to say: GO FOSTER'S!

    Future-Drama doesn't deserve to win, but probably will, just because it's the Simpsons. But North By North Quahog deserves it.

    For hour-long, Clone Wars. Obviously.

    Samurai Jack has the only worthy mention for an Emmy out of all of those choices. Atleast they could've picked The Death of Eric Cartman over Best Friends Forever for South Park.

    Yet if SJ wins, you think they'll put it back on the air for another week like CN did last time they hid it from the fans?

    If it wins again this year, hopefully we'll finally get an ending. The rest have no real reason to win; just to pad on to their reputations. After all, the rest of those series are still running.

    As for the music, either one could win, and should win.

    My picks for the winners (out of the things mentioned by Javeman)...

    Animated Program (30 mins or less)

    Inconclusive.

    It's between The Simpsons and Samurai Jack.

    Animated Program (1 hour or more)

    Star Wars Clone Wars Vol. 2

    Best Title Theme Music

    Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends

    That's my opinions.

    My opinions reside in SimpsonGuy100's post.

    EDIT - Except for the part about The Simpsons, that is.

    Okay, Seth MacFarlane wins an Emmy for "North by North Quahog" as best half-hour cartoon and tells Reverand Donald Wildman to kiss his backside.

    Clone Wars takes the 30-minutes of more toon and Gennedy Tartikosvky thans George Lucas.

    James Venable wins the best theme for Foster's and thanks everybody.

    I select The Simpsons or Samurai Jack for the first category, Clone Wars for the second, and my favorite animated series of today's times, Foster's, will win the musical category.

    JLU as best title theme? Hmm. . yeah, I can see that. I can go along with it.

    What I wouldn't give to see Teen Titans win that award. Would Puffy give an acceptance speech?

    I bet you they'd give the award to Sturmer instead. After all, he'd probably be able to make the ceremony, not to add his ability to speak English.

    Yes. They recieved nominations for "Big Gay Al's Big Gay Boat Ride", "Chinpokomon", "Osama Bin Laden Has Farty Pants", and "Christmas in Canada". So far, they didn't win any.

    As for Simpsons, they get nominated EVERY year! Since 1990.

    Not quite true. They weren't nominted in 1993 or 1994, because they had successfully rallied to get the emmys to consider animated shows as comedies, and thus were trying to compete there, but then didn't even get nominated (which is absurd; other then Seinfeld, does anyone even remember any other good comedies from that time?). They went back to the animated category in 1995 since they could actually get nominated there. But yeah, every year other then 93 and 94 has had a nomination at least.

    Anyway, I think I'll have to root for The Simpsons here, though the South Park episode was very good.

    SpongeBob SquarePants "Fear Of A Krabby Patty/Shell Of A Man"
    Who will win: Probably "The Simpsons", the academy's favorite (no matter how much it's slid off quality-wise).

    Who should win: Given the likeliest, erm, "winners" (current-day Simpsons vs. "Family Guy") I'm going with SpongeBob, even though I've never seen those two episodes before ("Shell of a man"... guess someone decided to use that stupid "ersatz-swearing with the use of the word 'shell'" bit that the current TMNT cartoon's promos have beaten into the ground :-) ). Though wonder why "King of the Hill" wasn't even nominated (guess nobody pays it any attention anymore....granted, I haven't either since the second season or so, but still :-) ).

    Outstanding Animated Program (for Programming One Hour Or More)

    "Dragons: A Fantasy Made Real"
    "Star Wars Clone Wars Vol. 2 (Chapters 21-25)"
    Who will win: Probably "Clone Wars."
    Who *should* win: "Clone Wars." Haven't seen (or heard of) "Dragons" though.

    The Simpsons also got a nomination for Music score (for episode "Treehouse of Horror XV") and for best song ("Always my Dad" for episode "A Star is Torn")

    "Fosters Home for Imaginary Friends" and "Justice League Unlimited" were nominated for best title theme music.
    [/quote]

    Guessing the Simpsons will win for best song (but not "Best musical score"), and that some live-action show will win for best title theme music (like the academy's *really* going to give that award to a non-"Simpsons" animated series...).

    -B.
