"Destination Imagination" gets Emmy nomination
 

The Emmy nominees for the past year have been announced, and the episode Destination Imagination has been nominated for Outstanding Animated Program, One Hour or More. It will go up against Spike TV's Afro Samurai: Resurrection.

In the Less Than One Hour category, American Dad ("Sixteen Hundred Candles"), Robot Chicken ("Robot Chicken: Star Wars, Episode II"), The Simpsons ("Gone, Maggie, Gone"), and South Park ("Margaritaville") got nominations.

All the nominees can be seen here (PDF file.) The Emmys for the animated shows are handed out some two weeks or so ahead of the main show in the Creative Arts division.

Yes! The competition is a lot narrower this time around. (Interestingly enough, Grey DeLisle was also in Afro Samurai: Resurrection.)

I'm also pleased to see 30 Rock get so many nominations once again. I hope NBC feels stupid for putting it on three-month hiatus for the new season.

Glad to see Fosters getting a nomination. I'm not so keen on the Simpsons episode they chose, though (I'm a Simpsons fan, and I really didn't like that one).

I admit, Afro Samurai: Resurrection was amazing, but it didn't have enough feeling as Destination Imagination, so Foster's FTW! :bloogrin:

That episode was the best one of Season 20! I really hope it wins actually . But I'm surprised the South Park episode 'About Last Night...' didn't get nominated :terrconf:

Anyways, here's hoping Foster's can add another Emmy to it's collection one last time.

I want this so bad. No episode or movie deserves it more. Here's hoping. :frankiesmile:

I'm going to have to disagree with you there; I thought it was really, really overrated. Personally I thought "Eeny, Teeny, Maya, Moe" was better.

I couldn't agree more! In fact, I'll go so far to make my predictions now 8D:

Outstanding Animated Program, One Hour or More: Destination Imagination!

Outstanding Animated Program, Less Than One Hour: Robot Chicken!

Aaaaahh!!! This is just way too awesome! Go Foster's, GO!! :yeah:

Another Simpsons nomination? Not that I hate the show, but they've got enough already. When will those guys give it a rest? ::)

It is time for that show to retire!

I'm more disappointed that it was Family Guy that was the first animated series since the Flinstones to get a Best Comedy nomination. Family Guy is just lucky to have been around at the right time, and have the most buzz around it.
