FG is one of the funniest shows ever on TV.

The Simpsons has been denied best comedy consideration for its entire run - many say the quality has declined, but even in its heyday - I can't see how FG is getting the nomination when this is the short list:
Curb Your Enthusiasm, Entourage, Family Guy, Flight of the Conchords, The Office, Pushing Daisies, 30 Rock, Two and a Half Men, Ugly Betty, and Weeds
And if anyone's interested, the short list for drama:
Boston Legal, Damages, Dexter, Friday Night Lights, Grey's Anatomy, House, Lost, Mad Men, The Tudors, and The Wire.

I'd be really bummed if Family Guy were the first animated show to land a nomination for best sitcom after the Simpsons were denied it for so so many years. If they do nominate FG they better give Simpsons a lifetime achievement Emmy that same night.

Poor Battlestar Galactica.
I starred in a short film called Magnetic Personality. Check it out!

BOSTON LEGAL is Drama?
Jesus.
Jesus.
The rain we knew is a thing of the past -
deep-delving, dark, deliberate you would say
browsing on spire and bogland; but today
our sky-blue slates are steaming in the sun,
our yachts tinkling and dancing in the bay
like racehorses. We contemplate at last
shining windows, a future forbidden to no one.

I think Family is funny, but those other shows are leagues above it in quality

Even the best episodes of Family are nothing compared to best episodes of The Simpsons, I would be really disappointed if they got a nod for best comedy. Esp. with competition like Weeds, The Office, 30 Rock, and Flight of Concords.

Was there a reason The Simpsons has been denied a nomination or just because?

I agree. I love Family Guy, but The Simpsons have much better writing (if not so much now, they certainly did in the first 12 seasons).

I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.

There wouldn't be FAMILY GUY without THE SIMPSOMS. Oh well.
