Dexter, Glee and Modern Family Among Golden Globe Nominations

The nominations were revealed for The 67th Annual Golden Globe Award this morning.

In the TV realm, some categories were very consistent with last year, but a few new series and actors also were included. The Drama series category was almost completely the same as a year ago, with HBO's Big Love replacing the same channel's In Treatment. However, two new series made it into the Comedy section – Glee and Modern Family, both of which are riding high on a lot of positive buzz. Glee also was a major player in the acting categories, with Matthew Morrison, Lea Michele and constant scene stealer Jane Lynch all nominated.

There was a lot of Golden Globe love for IGN TV favoriteDexter, with the series itself and star Michael C. Hall receiving repeat nominations. Hall's co-star John Lithgow received a nomination in the supporting actor category for his terrific work this year as Arthur Mitchell – Lithgow will compete against another great TV villain, Michael Emerson, nominated for his work as Ben Linus on Lost.

It's also nice to see more nominations for FX's great yet often unjustly ignored Damages, with Glenn Close, Rose Byrne and William Hurt all nominated for the work on the series. Meanwhile, HBO's new series Hung got notable attention, with stars Thomas Jane and Jane Adams both nominated
