I was hoping American Idol would get an Reality Competition Program nod for its last season, but it was not meant to be. At least Ryan Seacrest wasn’t snubbed for Outstanding Host. Our favorite, Kieran the lighting guy was nominated in the Lighting Design category…and that’s all she wrote for the iconic series.
