Emmy inside track: The comedy series race

All six of our forum moderators believe "Modern Family" will reap the Emmy for comedy series again. Moderators Chris Beachum, Matt Cormier, Marcus Dixon, Darrin Dortch, Rob Licuria and Matt Noble all place the ABC laffer in the top spot when ranking likely nominees according to their likelihood of winning. Four of them put "30 Rock" -- which won three times (2009, 2008, 2007) -- in second place. Licuria thinks "The Office" (winner, 2006) poses the most serious challenge to "Modern Family" continuing its reign, and Dixon gave his vote to "Glee."

Parks and Rec and Big Bang Theory over Community? Really?

[Leo]

Community deserves so much at least to get nominated. Actually it's even better than Modern Family, specially considering this season. Sad that they don't get reconized while bad ones, like The Big Bang Theoty, do.
