Chuck Nominated for an Emmy!

What a lovely surprise I discovered today when I was looking over yesterday’s news. I ended up on the Emmy Awards website (Emmys.com) and started typing in the names of my favorite shows in their search box (because they don’t have an easy to read list of Nominees—it’s a dropdown menu mess, but I digress).

If you read much of this blog, you know I’m a huge Chuck fan. I found Chuck in the nominees list in the Outstanding Stunt Coordination category.

Outstanding Stunt Coordination

  • Tom Elliott, Stunt Coordinator » Criminal Minds
  • Merritt Yohnka, Stunt Coordinator » Chuck (Episode: Chuck Versus The First Date)
  • Artie Malesci, Stunt Coordinator » Burn Notice
  • Al Jones, Stunt Coordinator » My Name Is Earl
  • Jeff Cadiente, Stunt Coordinator » 24
