Inglourious Basterds, Precious, Up in the Air, Dexter and 30 Rock Lead SAG Nominations

The 16th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards (SAG) were announced on Thursday, with a few surprises.

George Clooney's Up in the Air, which just received a Golden Globe nomination for best picture, was snubbed by SAG in the best ensemble category. Inglourious Basterds, Precious and Up in the Air earned the most nominations, with three a piece. Newcomer Gabourey Sidibe will be competing in the lead actress category for her role in Precious against Sandra Bullock, Carey Mulligan, Meryl Streep and Helen Mirren.

Showtime's Dexter continues to chop up the nominations. It received three, tieing NBC's 30 Rock and TNT's The Closer. The buzz of comedy newcomers Glee and Modern Family seem to have dampered voters love for The Big Bang Theory as it was shut out of the ensemble comedy series category. Toni Collette, who won the Emmy for best actress in a comedy series for her role in United States of Tara will be going up against Edie Falco, Tina Fey, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Christina Applegate, who received a nomination for her role in the now canceled Samantha Who?.

Which CBS Series Has Been The Worst This Fall?

It's not always easy choosing the "worst" show on a network like CBS, which has such a reliable stable of shows. However, of this fall's CBS lineup Gary Unmarried is my pick. I've tried to enjoy this sitcom, but I just can't. If I'm unlucky enough to end up watching it, by the time the 8PM CST hour rolls around I couldn't be more ready to switch to ABC's Modern Family or Fox's Glee.

Which CBS Series Has Been the Best This Fall?

We continue our look back at the 2009 fall TV season with its new and returning series, by focusing on CBS and its procedural heavy lineup. I've thoroughly enjoyed How I Met Your Mother for years, but this summer I fell in love with The Big Bang Theory while it was in rerurns and couldn't wait for it to return with fresh episodes in the fall. I was not disappointed.
