I don't think anyone was as surprised about the win as Allison herself.
But the number in the media really beating up on her :shakes head:. It's disgusting. You know, people, she probably didn't vote for herself. Enough other people voted for her and that's not her fault. And if you were totally not expecting a win, you try and come up with a coherent speech on the spot.
And I usually like his columns, but not happy with Tim Goodman this time:

Both in his references to Allison and his declaring of West Wing as constantly inferior in the past.
I don't watch Sopranos, not my cup of tea. I can recognise that the show is good, and the actors are up there at the top. But so was West Wing at its best. There seems to have been many nasty remarks made towards WW by various people associated with the Sopranos in previous years, and it
definitely has soured me towards them. But I don't take away from their deservedness. And I'm extremely happy they won.
Yet I've never heard any of the Wingers take away from fellow nominees or winners or act like they are entitled to the wins.
It's called having some class.
