The Los Angeles Times now brings us the 11 finalists for Best Supporting Drama Actress. The drumroll...

BEST SUPPORTING DRAMA ACTRESS
Jane Alexander, "Tell Me You Love Me"
Candice Bergen, "Boston Legal"
Rose Byrne, "Damages"
Jill Clayburgh, "Dirty Sexy Money"
Sharon Gless, "Burn Notice"
Rachel Griffiths, "Brothers and Sisters"
Christina Hendricks, "Mad Men"
S. Epatha Merkerson, "Law and Order"
Sandra Oh, "Grey's Anatomy"
Dianne Wiest, "In Treatment"
Chandra Wilson, "Grey's Anatomy"

Interesting: Christina Hendricks, as the complicated office tramp in "Mad Men."
Boring: Candice Bergen, anyone from "Grey's Anatomy."
Was robbed: Mia Wasikowska from "In Treatment." (You'll hear more on that soon.)
My list, I guess, with few strong feelings: Hendricks, Jill Clayburgh, S. Epatha Merkerson, Chandra Wilson for legacy purposes, and Rachael Griffiths, but more out of sympathy for having to be on that show.

No Mia Wasikowska??!! OMG, What are these people watching?? That's shocking.

Jill Clayburgh?? Really??!! With all due respect, her performance is nothing to write home about. As for Rachel Griffiths, anyone who's played Brenda Chenowith deserves an automatic nomination.

Hasn't Grey's Anatomy run its course yet?

The Hendricks nomination is my dark horse favorite. I really liked the character of Joan Holloway and the sauciness she brought to the 1960's office.
