So the Emmy nominations are going to be announced on Thursday which gives me today to share what I would pick (not predict) to nominate in the drama categories out of what I actually took the time to at least watch a few episodes from last season, and then tomorrow I'll do the comedy categories.
These are ranked in order of preference. Go ahead and share your own picks in the comments. It's not that I overlooked Lost... I just made a decision early on to wait until the series was finishing up to start watching it on DVD so I may start watching season one here pretty soon.

Yeah. Lost is glaringly missing. It should rack up some serious nominations after that killer, mind-bending season.
I hope True Blood gets some love. It's fast becoming my favorite show on television.
I love True Blood, but I would actually replace it with Lost on the Best Drama list. I think Lost has just been amazing lately.
I would also replace Johnny Lee Miller's nom with one for Michael Emmerson (Ben from Lost).
Glad to see Battlestar get some love from ya! Even though the last season wasn't as strong as others, for old times sake, it'd be nice to see it get a nod in the Best Drama category too. Will never happen though, I know.
Astonishingly, I have never seen any of the shows mentioned in your entire ballot, save the first season of Dexter in its CBS version.
That said, since you put January Jones first in anything, your ballot is aces as far as I'm concerned.
