That time of year again… awards season.
by tess ~ December 1st, 2008. Filed under: Articles, News, Samantha Who?.With awards season about to start up again (seems like it just ended), Jean has been getting a few mentions with regard to possible SAG award and Golden Globe nominations for her work on Samantha Who?.
The Hollywood Reporter has mentioned her for a possible Globe nomination…
And notably, while Jean Smart has copped three Emmy crowns (including one in September for “Samantha Who?”), she has never been so much as nominated for a Globe. If this isn’t her year, it may never arrive. (Source)
And Backstage.com has mentioned her as a potential SAG award nominee…
Christina Applegate is also in the running, given her highly praised work as an amnesiac on Samantha Who?. Plus, as Richmond points out, her recent bout with breast cancer gives her the sympathy factor that has pushed other worthy actors into the win column. Emmy winner Jean Smart as her mother might sneak in, since the SAG Awards consider supporting and leading performances together. (Source)
Golden Globe nominations are announced December 11th and the SAG nominations one week later on December 18th.
