The fourth season of "Lost," ABC's made-in-Hawaii drama, scored eight Emmy Award nominations this morning, including one for best drama series and a supporting-actor nod for Michael Emerson, who plays the mysterious Ben Linus.
The show was not nominated for writing or directing; the other nominations were for editing, cinematography, sound editing and sound mixing, plus Michael Giacchiano was nominated for musical composition. The eighth nomination was in the category of Special Class -- Short-format Live-action Entertainment Programs, for "Lost: Missing Pieces," mini-episodes posted online at www.abc.com.
Season 4 was viewed as a comeback season for "Lost," which floundered with viewers and critics last year. Emerson's mesmerizing performance as Ben, the brilliant leader of the Others whose motives are always obscure, was one of the primary factors. He was also nominated last year but did not win; Terry O'Quinn took the Emmy for his role as John Locke.
Emerson won an Emmy in 2001 for a guest role as a serial killer on "The Practice."
Also nominated as top dramatic series were "Boston Legal," "Damages," "Dexter," "House," and "Mad Men."
Nominated with Emerson are William Shatner, "Boston Legal"; Ted Danson, "Damages"; Zeljko Ivanek, "Damages"; and John Slattery, "Mad Men."
