Toni Collette Wins Emmy For Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series

What Do You Think About the Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series?

September 20, 2009

Toni Collette is taking home the Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for The United States of Tara! She beat Tina Fey, Mary-Louise Parker, Christina Applegate, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and Sarah Silverman.

This one totally shocked me, but Collette is pretty great on The United States of Tara. What do you think about this win? Can you believe Tina didn't take home the gold?

I haven't seen The United States of Tara, so I can't judge, but I was really hoping it would be Christina Applegate. I just adore her!

Toni, hands down! She is one of the most amazing actresses. She was perfectly cast as Tara and does amazing things with that role. It's insane.

Should have been Tina Fey, no question in my mind.

Whilst I love Tina Fey and 30 Rock, Toni is in a class of her own here. They are very lucky to have her in that show.

I mentioned this in your preview questionnaire on this category. But, I just had a feeling Toni Collette was going to win. And Im glad she did. I like 30 Rock a lot, but Im kind of getting tired of all hoop-lah they're receiving.
