TV president GEENA DAVIS doesn't know whether to laugh or cry about her first Emmy Award nomination - because it's for a cancelled show.
The THELMA & LOUISE star is up for a Best Actress honour at the upcoming US TV awards - for her role as PRESIDENT MACKENZIE ALLEN in axed show COMMANDER IN CHIEF.
And though there's a planned film in the works, Davis admits the nomination made her realise how much she misses her TV character.
She says, "It's the definition of bittersweet. I really consider it one of the parts of a lifetime."
Davis blames the show's changing time slot for its falling ratings.
She explains, "People were wondering 'Where's the show? When is it on?'" (KL/WNVET/SH)
