The Emmy nominees have been announced, and Glee, Mad Men, and Modern Family are among the most recognized shows. Bryce Van Kooten has a complete analysis of the selections and offers a “Fact and “Fiction” for each category. He’s particularly high on Ty Burrell.

For the past three years, “30 Rock” has won the Emmy for Outstanding Comedy Series, deservedly so says Bryce Van Kooten. But there is a perception that the show slipped this season, and that could open the door for a show like “Modern Family” or “Glee” to claim the top spot among comedy series.

Flying under the radar, Bryan Cranston is going for his third straight Best Actor Emmy. Bryce Van Kooten explains why you should be watching “Breaking Bad”.

Big names won Best Actor Oscars in the 1990s, but Anthony Hopkins was the easy pick for our voters. Bryce Kooten takes a closer look.

Bryce Van Kooten sees the list of Oscar nominees and sees plenty of performances that got snubbed. His list includes “Star Trek” for Best Picture, Matt Damon’s for Best Actor in “The Informant!” and Zoe Saldana for her portrayal of Neytiri in “Avatar.” Who do you think got snubbed?

James Cameron has another blockbuster set for release soon in “Avatar,” which promises to be in the Oscar hunt. Blockbusters do not often win Best Picture, but movies like “The Return of the King” and Cameron’s own “Titanic” have bucked the trend. Can “Avatar” join them? Bryce Van Kooten reports.

Not since “Beauty and the Beast” in 1991 has an animated feature film been nominated for Best Picture. But with the expansion to 10 nominees, Pixar’s “Up” could change all of that. Can it go where “Wall E”, “Ratatouille”, and “Toy Story” couldn’t? Bryce Van Kooten takes a closer look.
