SAG nominations not quite as odd as Golden Globes, but ...

The Screen Actors Guild announced their nominations today. They aren't quite as puzzling as the Golden Globe nominations announced earlier this week, but there are a few head-scratchers.

Like the cast of "Hot in Cleveland" (or "The Office," for that matter) getting an ensemble nod over say, "Community." But I quibble. All in all, it's a much more legitimate nomination list, even if it does inexplicably exclude Connie Britton, Kyle Chandler, and anything remotely related to "Friday Night Lights." I will never understand that.
