Will the Emmys Nominate Masi Oka?

The Variety guys have an article about how Hollywood is lagging behind when it comes to recognizing actors of color (i.e. minorities, non-whites) for Emmy nominations. Of course the irony is that Hollywood has always been the loudest voice when it comes to this, telling the rest of America to be more open-minded, when the [...]

If Masi is nominated he is sure to win

I want the whole show to win.

I concur. It would be wrong to nominate only one actor when the show deserves the Emmy.

Masi doesn't have the most challenged role, but his does show more emotion than the others, I think. There are a lot of actors and actresses on the show that I think deserve an Emmy, though. Pretty much all of the leading cast, if you go by their overall performances, and a lot of the supporting cast, too. If the show doesn't at least get an award, I will have lost all hope in the system.

I really hope Adrian Pasdar gets nominated. He really is a fine actor.

Not even the Emmys can snub Heroes; to do so would remove any doubt about their closed-ranked small-mindedness. It will most likely receive "Best Dramatic" or "Best New Dramatic" series.

YES! Finally someone who appreciates Adrian Pasdar... He has range and depth. You can see the conflicting emotions cross his face while he is struggling with which path to take: light or dark... The pain in his face when his character thought Peter was dead.

Let me second that Sam: The man is a fine actor.
