This year's Screen Actors Guild Award nominees are retreads of last years' noms. SAG has some right, and some notable omissions.

Mostly all FX series, which boggles the mind as the network featured fresh and truly funny comedies as well as compelling dramas.  Sons of Anarchy and Justified had stellar seasons, and notable performances. The comedy landscape was brightened by adult comedies Wilfred and Louie, each smart and completely original in concept and execution.

Le sigh.
