Here’s a video clip of LOST winning Best Drama Series in 2005, for its first season:

Heh. I had to do a double take when “The West Wing” rolled around. Then I read the year and realized why it was included. (Serious West Wing’ite here.)
Hope Lost has the same result as 2005. 😀
Ha — yeah, that’s an old clip. Crossing my fingers that LOST will win again this year, and that Michael Emerson will win, finally, for his Benjamin Linus role — he did win an Emmy once, but for another role on another show, never for playing Ben.
I am happy that Michael Emerson is nominated but I was also hoping Terry O’quinn will also be nominated for his character as John Locke. His character actually for season 5 has more drama and he act so natural and believable. I don’t know why he wasn’t nominated. But I do hope Michael Emerson will win and Lost will win as outstanding drama series.
I agree that Terry O’Quinn deserved to be nominated. I wish Jeremy Davies, Fionnula Flanagan, Elizabeth Mitchell, Josh Holloway, Naveen Andrews, Jorge Garcia, and Ken Leung had all been nominated this year too.
Terry O’Quinn and Michael Emerson already went head-to-head for the Emmy in 2007 — and Terry O’Quinn won that time. So maybe it’s Michael Emerson’s turn this year.
I think Emerson is such an amazing actor — and he adds so much to LOST — that it would be a crime if he didn’t win at some point.
