My Name Is Earl and The Office nominated for TCA awards

It's been a good year for NBC comedies. Well, at least it's been a good year for My Name Is Earl and The Office. Each show, along with 24 and The Sopranos, has been mominated for three Television Critics Association awards. The Office has been nominated for program of the year, for best comedy series, and Steve Carrell got a nod for comedic performance. Earl has been nominated for new program of the year, for best comedy series, and for Jason Lee's leading performance. It's not a big stretch to say that both shows are going to be under heavy Emmy consideration later this year, so let's hope the TCA awards are just the start for both shows.
