You know, I have to say that I LOVE Jaime Pressly on Earl. She consistently makes me crack up when I tune in, and I think she's greatly underrated as a comedic talent. So I was quite pleased to hear she won, because the woman is pretty much the funniest gal on TV.
And no offense to Jenna Fischer, who I think is great, but she didn't have the comedic chops to beat Jaime this season. I think Jenna did more "acting," but Jaime just had funnier material. And when it comes down to best actress in a comedy, I think how much you make someone laugh should definitely outweigh making people feel all emotional about the character. But that's just my perspective.
