2009 Primetime Emmy Award Nominees Revealed

The big screen gets the Academy Awards, and the small screen gets the Emmy Awards. Today the full list of nominees for the 2009 Emmy Awards were revealed, and there were a few shockers to say the least. True Blood, a wildly popular HBO program, was snubbed completely without a single nod in any category, and Jeremy Piven, who won an Emmy the past three years for his work on Entourage, was also left out in the cold. Most appropriately, Katherine Heigl of "Grey's Anatomy", who withdrew herself from consideration from last year's awards, was not given the same opportunity this year - she didn't get a nod, proving that the Emmys certainly hold a grudge.
