The primetime Emmy Award nominations are here! Modern Family and Glee cleaned up with nominations for slews of their actors, Kyle Chandler and Connie Britton were finally recognized though Friday Night Lights wasn't, and it's a beautiful day-- Two and a Half Men and Entourage were both denied Best Comedy Series nominations. Oh, and remember a little show called The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien? Its brief seven-month life has now been memorialized with an Emmy nomination.

Check out a partial list of nominees below, which we'll be adding to as the day goes forward. You can also download the complete list of nominees here. Chime in with your thoughts in the comments and we'll be back later with a full rundown of all the snubs and surprises.
