Another four are frosh: HBO's "Bet on Thrones," Showtime's "Homeland," FX's "American Horror Story" and Starz's "Boss." With CBS's"The Great Wife" neglecting to nab a repeat nomination, the dramas is going to be entirely symbolized by cable series.Broadcast worked out a little better around the comedy side, where Fox might find the 2011 champion, "Glee," return and add another in rookie series "New Girl." ABC's "Modern Family" has returned too but alongside some dark-equine challengers -- HBO's "Enlightened" and Showtime's "Episodes" -- that handled to knock out some broadcast faves: NBC's "30 Rock" and CBS' "The Large Bang Theory."Cinemax had its typically strong showing overall, nabbing 18 nominations -- 1 / 2 of which arrived movies/miniseries groups brought by four for "Mildred Pierce." Only PBS' "Downton Abbey" had as numerous noms. "Mildred Pierce" made Globes fave Kate Winslet a double nominee, together with her mention for film comedy actress for "Carnage."Among series alone, there is nobody dominant player, with "Boardwalk," "Modern Family" and "Homeland" each getting three. Showtime got all eight of their noms in series groups, second as a whole simply to Cinemax."Mildred Pierce" made Kate Winslet a double nominee this time around around, as she's also on the feature comedy/musical side for "Carnage."Within the comedy thesping warmth, "Large Bang" was knocked for any loop within the lead actor category where the 2011 champion, Jim Parsons, did not obtain a nomination, but his co-star, Johnny Galecki, did.

Laura Dern of "Enlightened," Amy Poehler of "Parks and Entertainment" and Zooey Deschanel of "New Girl" complete the course. Particularly absent in the category is Edie Falco, a kudos darling for Showtime's "Nurse Jackie."Possibly the greatest surprise within the thesping groups was the shutout for "Glee," which gained probably the most nominations associated with a series this past year. But all stars who have been nominated did not get asked to compete, including Matthew Morrison, Jum Michele, Jane Lynch and Chris Colfer.The drama actress category stored using the Globes' upheaval theme by only coming back "The Great Wife's" Julianna Margulies and getting in 2 challengers who have been on couple of shortlists to obtain a nomination: Madeleine Stowe from the new ABC sudser "Revenge," and Callie Thorne of USA's "Necessary Roughness." They are became a member of by two more expected newbies, AMC's Mireille Enos of "The Killing" and Showtime's Claire Danes of "Homeland," a Globes fave who won this season within the miniseries category on her submit HBO's "Temple Grandin."Kelsey Grammer gained his first Globe nom since 2002, and the first lead drama actor bid, for his turn because the tyrannical politician in Starz's "Boss." "Homeland's" Damian Lewis is yet another new face within the category, rounded out by Steve Buscemi of "Boardwalk," Bryan Cranston of "Breaking Bad" and Jeremy Irons for Showtime's "The Borgias."Competing against "Downton Abbey" and "Mildred Pierce" within the longform warmth are HBO's "Too Large to Fail" and "Cinema Verite" and BBC America small "The Hour." PBS and BBC America also fielded other gamers, with Idris Elba of BBC America's "Luther" coming back towards the longform actor category, that also welcomed Bill Nighy of PBS' "Page Eight." The relaxation were William Hurt ("Fail"), Hugh Bonneville ("Abbey") and Dominic West ("Hour")."Hour," which recreated the nineteen fifties British news biz, also recognized Romola Garai within the miniseries/movie actress category. Also within the race are Winslet, Diane Lane ("Verite"), Elizabeth McGovern ("Abbey") and Emily Watson of Sundance Channel's "Appropriate Adult."Within the supporting acting groups, where series talent intermingles with longform thesps, "Modern Family" demonstrated its strength by coming back Sofia Vergara and Eric Stonestreet. Stonestreet will face off against "Bet on Thrones' " Peter Dinklage and three longform gamers: Paul Giamatti of "Too Large to Fail" Guy Pearce of "Mildred Pierce" and Tim Robbins of "Cinema Verite." Competing against Vergara are Jessica Lange of "American Horror Story," Kelly Macdonald of "Boardwalk Empire," Maggie Cruz of "Downton Abbey" and Evan Rachel Wood of "Mildred Pierce.""American Horror Story" joins a listing of rookie implies that should obtain a nice jolt of fresh attention in the public after scoring dual nods that insert them in contention for series and acting honors, including Fox's "New Girl," Starz's "Boss," HBO's "Enlightened" and Showtime's "Episodes."While AMC was likely to lighten its statuette load given "Mad Males" was qualified for that Globes race this season, it might have wished for a much better showing given "The Killing" and "Breaking Bad" only came one nomination each while "The Walking Dead" was ignore entirely.Ditto for Forex, which saw no fascination with "Justified," "Louie" and "Sons of Anarchy." Other notable omissions were "Friday Evening Lights," "Work,Inch and "Dexter." Contact Andrew Wallenstein at andrew.wallenstein@variety.com
