Just looking at the list...Hugh Laurie should've bloody won! Grrrr... As should've Terry O'Quinn. Bloody Boston Legal.

But huge YEAHS to Felicity Huffman (and Kathryn Joosten)! And Patricia Arquette. And Tony Shalhoub.

I'm glad West Wing didn't win. A bit blah about Lost, I watch it, but it isn't the best drama. And BLAH to Kat Hates Raymond.

And HUGE YEAHS for Teri Hatcher not winning.

I'm very relieved I'm not the only one who likes Patricia in it. My flist seem to severely dislike her and the fact she was even nomonated, let alone won.

I find her very understated and subtle in a role that could so easily be scenery chewing and over the top. And I know I'm strange, but I so adore the moment in one of the last episodes where she caught her jacket on a chair, and she took it all in her stride and just continued on with the scene. I also adore her relationship with her husband, feels so real to me.

And totally on the rest.

I'm not in love with the show - and after seeing Afterlife I've seen how the whole medium thing could have been done so differently - but I *know* Patricia is good in it because I've hated her in everything else and yet I watch her in Medium and feel quite compelled by her. I figure that's what good acting is - that ability to completely lose yourself in this character - so much so that you convince even your critics.

I'm not sure I've ever seen her in anything else.

She did a lot of independent alternative Tarantino-esque films in the 90s - True Romance, Indian Runner and Lost Highway to name a few. She seemed to have a habit of playing similar characters - blonde bimbo-ish and a little bit psycho. Never appealed to me. It's nice to see her playing someone *totally* different.
