DH2 was brilliant — but I fear the final Oscar shut-out for this amazing series … * sigh *

But I do agree with Hagiographer13.
For once I want all those craftsmen, designers and staff to reap praise for their outstanding work. I know the producers have said that it’s praise enough for them to see the love we fans have for the series, but I still hope each year… sigh…

I hope they win and I am still hoping like crazy that Alan Rickman gets the credit he’s due as well.

@LunaLuver, I think they will announce the nominations in different categories at different times, ending up with the acting ones. But this is still only a shortlist. No doubt they will try to build up as much suspense as they can!
