I get it probablyROB ;) and I, for one, find it amusing as well.
We found love in a hopeless place... and now we shine like a diamond.

Although, come to think of it, I did have a problem at the time how neither Chris nor Matt instantly corrected him or corrected him at all until the commenters brought it up. And it is weird that Tom never realized that it contradicted what was widely published on this site. |

Chris did say it though that reps sometimes change their episodes without informing GoldDerby of the change. Seeing that the episodes were included in the official DVD, I would assume also that the episode in the DVD was the correct one. I don't see why they must vehemently ask Tom to check whether what he said is true since, as long as I know, that there have no reports of a mix up of episodes before this part. And Tom, if I'm not mistaken, said that he only received the official DVDs only the week before after the voting was closed. So not that Tom had this information for ages and only shared it now. We are only knowing this because the rep saw the video and contacted ATAS. I don't think I'm ideolizing Tom cos I do feel that he can be a little off at times, like how Smash would get nominations or how Chris Colfer would win last year. But in this case, I don't think he appears condescending. He's just saying that's not the case because it was on the official DVD. |

Yes, BUT, in jjjmoss's defense, and I guess mine, since I was the one who wrote the apparently confusing comment about basic probability, there's still the Candance Bergen win in lead. Isn't that a category where they were submitting full episode and not just a version edited down to that actor's scenes? How many times have there even been three or more actors from one show nominated in the lead category? If you only count races where the judges would have watched the entire episodes, the odds might still not be terrible. RE-HIRE CHRISTIE CLARK! |

Also, I get where people are coming from with asking for a new judging panel to make things fair in the Deschanel/Greenfield goof, but them getting an extra episode each doesn't seem to me like it should necessarily warrant such extreme action. It seems no more or less fair than how an actor is helped or harmed by additional episodes from co-stars being nominated in the same category. It's not fair for Greenfield to get two episodes but it is fair for Ty Burrell, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, etc. to get four? Greenfield and Deschanel aren't in the same category, but they're getting the effect as if they were. To me, it seems we can't possibly make a to-do about this without demanding reform so no actor gets more than his or her one allotted episode somehow, no matter how many co-stars are nominated with them. And I agree, Deschanel is more hindered than helped by having the judges see Control. RE-HIRE CHRISTIE CLARK! |

But it is not about the judges seeing however many number of episodes. For me, it is about Deschenal having no chance because people already have preconceived notions about what their final ballots are. |
