"GLEE," the spunky TV musical comedy about high school misfits and the teachers who shepherd them, was a top Emmy nominee yesterday with 19 bids, including for best comedy series and stars Matthew Morrison and Lea Michele.
The leading nominee was the gritty, unsparing World War II drama, "The Pacific," with 24 nominations.
Conan O'Brien is gone from "The Tonight Show" but his short tenure as host is not forgotten: The late-night show with him at the helm nabbed a nomination as best variety, music or comedy series, while resurrected Jay Leno was snubbed in the category. David Letterman's "Late Show" also was missing from the nominees, after a season in which the host turned an admission of affairs with female staffers and a blackmail attempt into high broadcast drama.
Out of the running for best comedy series is "Two and Half Men" and its star, Charlie Sheen, who's been charged in a domestic dispute case involving his wife. The show and Sheen have routinely been nominated in past seasons.
Besides "Glee," other newcomers receiving Emmy recognition include "Modern Family," with nods for best comedy series and for five members of its ensemble cast - although not linchpin Ed O'Neill as the patriarch - and "The Good Wife," a nominee for best drama and recognition for star Julianna Margulies.
The final season of "Lost" garnered nominations for best drama series and a nod for star Matthew Fox and supporting nominations for Terry O'Quinn and Michael Emerson. Elizabeth Mitchell received a guest actress bid.
Comedy skit show "Saturday Night Live" received 12 nominations for a total 126 nominations during its run, surpassing the "ER" all-time record of 124 bids. One of the nominations went to Betty White, who at 88 proved you're never too old for comedy when she hosted the show to big ratings and applause.
White's competitors include Tina Fey, the former "Saturday Night Live" writer and star who took a break from her "30 Rock," the second-most nominated comedy with 15 bids, to return as an "SNL" host.
"Mad Men" was the most-nominated drama with 17 bids. The darkly sexy 1960s period show has been honored as best drama two years in a row.
Besides "Glee" and "Modern Family," other nominees for best comedy series include "Curb Your Enthusiasm," "Nurse Jackie," "The Office" and last year's winner, "30 Rock."
