The HBO historical drama John Adams was the overall frontrunner with 23 bids, including a lead-actor nomination for Paul Giamatti's turn as one of America's founding fathers.
Last year's best comedy Emmy winner, 30 Rock, was the top nominee among sitcoms with 17 bids. The Wire, the just-ended, critically acclaimed HBO drama about police and drug dealers in Baltimore, lost its last shot at a best-drama nod after years of Emmy snubs. It received one nomination Thursday, for writing.
Glenn Close was nominated as best actress in a drama for her role in Damages. She'll compete against 2007 winner Sally Field for Brothers & Sisters, Kyra Sedgwick, The Closer, Mariska Hargitay, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and Holly Hunter, Saving Grace.
