No Love for This Girl

For seven years, Lauren Graham starred as Lorelai Gilmore in Gilmore Girls, a dramedy loved by fans and critics, but not by Emmy voters, who only gave the show one statuette — for makeup. Graham's portrayal of the cool mom, with her fast-paced dialogue and even quicker wit, went unnoticed by the Academy despite loud protests from supporters, though the role did land her a Golden Globe nomination in 2002. She even got snubbed this year, missing a nomination for her role on NBC's Parenthood.
