This morning the People's Choice Award nominations were revealed, and as always, it's populism at its best.  On the TV side, the nominees often look like the top of the Nielsen ratings list, with a few notable and surprising exceptions.  Shows like True Blood and Gossip Girl crept into the Favorite TV Actress categories while Favorite Sci-Fi/Fantasy TV Show features Lost, True Blood, The Vampire Diaries and Supernatural.

However, those are the very cool exceptions.  For the most part, the list is full of CSI, NCIS, Grey's Anatomy, Two and a Half Men and other top-rated shows.  Here are the major television nominees for this year's People's Choice Awards.
