| I have said this before but it is the prerogative of folks who give awards to set their own rules. Yes, we can call their rules stupid and we can call their nominations stupid but the truth is that awards are stupid. Beyond that controversial notion, what is the reasoned basis for saying an actor should not get an Emmy when they were eligible for a Tony if an actor can get a Tony even though they were eligible for a Drama Desk, Outer Critics, etc etc etc award? |
