I'm gonna have to watch Dinklage's episode again. I don't remember him being particularly great in that one.

Are these a joke?  Is Peter Dinklage and the show really not submitting "Blackwater"?  Those will surely rank at the very top of the list for worst submissions of the year, along with whatever Sofia Vergara accidentally submits.

Dinklage messed up with his submission, right now it's between the BB's guys and Harris.

Dreyfus, Danes, Lewis e David submited wisely. Falco, Cheadle and Dunham I don't know, but they won't win.

Dunham submitted terribly. The season finale doesn't focus too much on her and there aren't really that many "funny" moments in it. It's mostly dramatic stuff. Ugh, well I don't think Dunham has any shot to win now. I guess Dunham is the next Sofia Vegara when it comes to picking bad episode submissions. *shakes head*

Falco picked a great episode, much better than her submission last year.

I'm still pushing myself throuhg Girls' first season, but based on RyanEarle's reaction, I'm assuming this race now comes down to what Poehler and/or Deschanel submit.

Dunham should've gone with Pilot or The Return. There really isn't any need to submit anything else. It's not like she just wrote one of these episodes and it's her favorite like you know Poehler will do. She wrote it all, almost directed it all, everything is hers, be smart and pick The Pilot. I would even go with that instead of The Return.

Dreyfus did great, she really had an easy task as she had tons to choose from. Surprised the show didn't go with Chung, but whatever, five of those are great. Funny that in this particular case, a Pilot is the worst tape of the bunch. Never seen that before with a new show.

Some thoughts:

-Larry David just might win this year. Isn't "Palenstine Chicken" one of the best episodes of the series?

-Falco screwed up her submission. She won't win this year, but "Disneyland Sucks" is too dramatic. I understand why she picked it because she is great in it (she deals with going to rehab). But she needs to submit "Handle Your Scandal." It's the explosive season finale where she gets fired.

-Dunham and her people really want her to win this. "She Did" is an EXCELLENT submission. It's really funny and has a ton of range and impact. When Dunham and her boyfriend argue over her weight ("I am 13 pounds overweight and it has been AWFUL for me!"), that's one of the standout moments of the season. I think, no matter what, Poehler is winning this year finally. Especially after her well received stunt last year. But if not Poehler, Dreyfus wins. Competitive category but Dunham will win soon if she maintains the quality of her show.

-These guest categories are pretty competitive. Jimmy Fallon is red hot right now so I think he'll win Guest Actor, though don't be surprised if Fox wins again. Hamm is most definitely out. Kinnear was actually really strong in his episode so he's in this race, too. Cannavale and Arnett are solid, but their episodes lack impact.

-Watch out for Elizabeth Banks. She has a thriving film career and her submitted episode is her best performance to date on "30 Rock." Cho so didn't deserve her nomination. What a joke. Does her character even speak? Does she even have one minute of screentime in her episode?

My Grammy credentials!

Wow, so Dinklage in my opinion is out. HBO really wanted to stay away from 'Blackwater' it wasn't in series, didn't get into writing or directing, now Dinklage doesn't submit it.

SAG voters get your s**t together!

Dinklage doesn't submit Blackwater?!! Change it now before it's too late!!!! Also, tape B should be eps 6-7, not 5-6, and tape C should be 9-10, not 7-8. Blackwater was their best episode. Boomer or Tom, can you ask HBO why are they not submitting Blackwater for both series and Dinklage, please?

G'Day,

Just bumped Dinklage down from #1 to #4. His episode has some nice scenes and if they really love his character than maybe it's enough, but yeah he's pretty much knocked himself out. Isn't it crazy, Harris from outsider to get nominated to top 3 contender in a handful of days. Here's a quick look at Dinklage's episode if people wanted a memory jog:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SNCv-nNsr5k


Also Game of Thrones did an awful job with series submissions:

One of the best moments of the series is at the begining of "The Ghost of Harrenhal" but that will make no sense and have little impact without voters seeing "Garden of Bones" first, seems like a real obvios tape pairing.
Then "Blackwater" was one of the best episodes of televison all year and they don't even include it on the list. The season final was also one of their best episodes and it's no where to be seen.
The Dany cliffhanger in "A Man without Honor" isn't followed up on in the next episode "Prince of Winterfell" which spends a lot of it's time leading up to "Blackwater"
