The awards ceremony was very entertaining with several very funny moments but for me the limelight was stolen by Jodie Foster. Great!

To read TV categories nominations and winners go official site. The Master and Beasts of the Southern Wild are perhaps the most notable snubs in any film category (actors got nods for the first); but also ignoring Javier Bardem was a big surprise. Most notorious is that had NO idea that Salmon Fishing in the Yemen was a comedy (lol); but these nominations, for a huge change, doesn't seem as "ridiculous" as have been in past editions as honored films are movies that already have strong Oscar buzz.
