Posted: 4/14/05 at 4:59pmThankfully. I told everyone on here that it's impossible for Azaria/Pierce to NOT be considered leading. Good.

The SPAMALOT men very well might cancel each other out. I am happy however that they are all in the leading catagory so that Marc has a better shot at winning for CHITTY.

Posted: 4/14/05 at 5:04pmBad for the Spamalot boys. They had a chance in the Featured category.

eeek. If all three of them get nominated, which I have a feeling they will.... that leaves a lot of people out in the dark.

Posted: 4/14/05 at 5:10pmI'm sure they will all be nominated, also which I'm not too crazy about. There were MUCH better performances given this season than those three.

I agree they'll cnacel each other out. I think Norbert has it in the bag.
Does this mean Sherie would be leading, since Joanna is featured?

Posted: 4/14/05 at 5:14pmwell, that pretty much cancels out Cheyenne Jackson's Chance.... oh well, he's young... he'll have another chance (hopefully)

If all 3 Spamalot men are nominated. I think that's pretty sh*tty and unfair.
And yes the article stages Sherie is leading.

Posted: 4/14/05 at 5:16pmIf this cancels out Raul, I'm going to be F*CKING PISSED.

Sweetie, you know I love Raul. But he didn't give a Tony worthy performance this year.

Posted: 4/14/05 at 5:17pmNorbert certainly has the edge in the Leading category. However, with the Spamalot trio in the Leading Category, it would open the door Christian Borle in the Featured Category for Spamalot. I'll keep my fingers crossed!

Posted: 4/14/05 at 5:19pmWhat do you mean ****ty and unfair? There's nothing that can be done - THEY PLAY LEADING ROLES IN THE SHOW. Nothing is unfair.

If they didn't specifically mention Sherie, she is definitely a contender for a leading actress nod.
I bet all Spamalot men will NOT be nominated - probably just two.

There are going to be some VERY disappointed actors when these nominations come out. I'd bet at least one of the Spamalot guys gets left out. Contending for five slots:
Norbert Leo Butz
John Lithgow
Tim Curry
Hank Azaria
David Hyde-Pierce
Gary Beach
Daniel Davis (no way)
Nathan Lane
Cheyenne Jackson
Raul Esparza
B.D. Wong
Tom Hewitt

B.D. Wong
