Golden Globe nominations ain't got much "Milk"; Neil Patrick Harris scores a nod

Minutes ago the nominations were announced for the Golden Globe Awards, and there were a host of nominations of gay interest. But disappointingly, Milk was all but shut out of the nominations, failing to earn nominations in any category except Best Actor.  

Okay, that just sucks. 

On the bright side, out actor Neil Patrick Harris earned a nomination for How I Met Your Mother, and several gay-inclusive television shows got nods, including Alan Ball's True Blood, The Office, Ugly Betty, Weeds, Mad Men, The Office, and Bernard & Doris. A list of the noms of interest, after the jump.
