Glee's Emmy News From TV Guide
Someone asked Matt Roush about the Emmy process regarding Glee, Chris and Jane.
Question: I'm sure you get sick to death of questions about the Emmy process, but I just have to ask this one. When a show doesn't fit completely in one box or the other, when it has equal proportions comedy and drama, do all of its stars have to necessarily go into the same category? I'm thinking mostly of Glee. It puts itself in the comedy category, and no one would argue that Jane Lynch is the most deserving of all actresses out there for the Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy award. But Chris Colfer is amazing, truly one for the ages. His performance in "Never Been Kissed" was phenomenal, transcendent, and definitely should be rewarded with an Emmy. But not for comedy. Glee brings so many different things to the table, why can't its stars nominate themselves in the category in which they fit best? Jane Lynch stays in comedy, Chris Colfer nominates himself in drama. I know it's probably never been done before, but is there any reason why it can't be? Not a fan of the status quo. — Melissa
Matt Roush: I don't know if there's a rule that an actor doing fine dramatic work in a show otherwise classified as a comedy would be forbidden to submit said work in the proper drama category. But perceptually, it probably would be advised against at the network and studio level. These comedy-drama (and in this case, musical) hybrids have it tough enough without adding more confusion. And while I agree with the gist of your argument, especially given the seriousness of the bullying storyline Kurt is currently embroiled in, I also wonder if the solid emotional work Chris Colfer is doing this season might actually boost his chances against fellow comic actors. Whereas putting a flamboyant character like this in the running against supporting drama players in terrific ensembles like Mad Men, Breaking Bad, The Good Wife and Boardwalk Empire could just as easily backfire. No perfect solution, that's for sure. But if Colfer were to submit for drama, the choice would likely be seen as bold and controversial enough to raise his visibility if not viability.

Chris Colfer - Emmy Nomination?
Critics are saying Chris Colfer's performance from last night's episode was Emmy worthy!
The New York post is one of the critics who praised Chris: (Read below)
"For Sue, that moment happened early in life when her older sister was mercilessly mocked for being differently abled while Kurt's crisis of faith came crashing down when his father Burt suffered a coma-inducing heart attack.
It was through this last storyline that the episode redeemed itself in my eyes. And all of that has to do with Chris Colfer's performance. Because his character has long been the best serviced on the show, Chris has often gotten the meatiest material to work with -- and last night was no exception as Kurt spent much of the hour in limbo, not knowing if he'd soon become an orphan.
That led to a pair of stunning scenes for Kurt/Chris as he sang a song for his father, begged for some signs of life and cemented his 2011 Emmy nomination."
