Sons of Anarchy and Conan O'Brien: Tracking the Day's Bitterest Emmy Reactions

Considering that Sons of Anarchy creator Kurt Sutter called one-time NYC Hells Angels president Chuck Zito a "delusional bitch," it goes to reason that he wouldn't have the kindest words for the Emmy voters after they completely snubbed his series this morning. And sure enough, he didn't: "They are lazy sheep," Sutter wrote in a scathing blog post. Predictably, he didn't stop there -- but Mariska Hargitay, you may want to cover your ears.

Wrote Sutter:

Let's face it, kids, we are the dirty-faced outlaws who no one wants in their clean white town. We are too loud, too violent, too brash. We don't sing, have pretty sets, or wear retro suits. They admire us from afar, wish they could do what we do, then they pull the shades and settle for the familiar.

The outspoken showrunner also took umbrage to the fact that his wife, Sons of Anarchy star Katey Sagal, wasn't nominated either, dropping a not-so-subtle parenthetical, "(Mariska Hargitay are you f*cking kidding me?)," in the middle of a paragraph proclaiming that being angry at the Emmy process is just "lazy."

But wait! Lest you think Sutter is the only other proprietor of sour grapes, there's also nominee Conan O'Brien, who used Twitter to voice his ironic happiness over the ironic nomination The Tonight Show received: "Congrats to my staff on 4 Emmy nominations. This bodes well for the future of The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien." Zing!

If only O'Brien and Sutter could have been as relaxed about the whole thing as Jeremy Piven. The former Emmy golden boy was left without a nomination this year and didn't seem all that broken up about it, tweeting: "'Stress is caused by being 'here' but wanting to be 'there.' - Eckhart Tolle."
