Emmy predictions guaranteed to be correct

You can take this information to the bank. When the Emmy nominees are announced July 17 five of these 10 programs will be the nominees for best drama series:
Boston Legal (ABC)
Damages (FX)
Dexter (Showtime)
Friday Night Lights (NBC)
Grey's Anatomy (ABC)
House (Fox)
Lost (ABC)
Mad Men (AMC)
The Tudors (Showtime)
The Wire (HBO)

And five of these 10 will be nominated for best comedy series:
Curb Your Enthusiasm (HBO)
Entourage (HBO)
Family Guy (Fox)
Flight of the Conchords (HBO)
The Office (NBC)
Pushing Daisies (ABC)
30 Rock (NBC)
Two and a Half Men (CBS)
Ugly Betty (ABC)
Weeds (Showtime)

And if you don't already know how I can make this absolute guarantee, I'm not going to tell ya. So there.

By the way, if "Damages" or "Mad Men" do make the final five, it will be the first time a basic cable television program has been up for this award. And, if "Weeds," "The Tudors" or "Dexter" gets a nomination, it will be first time a cable series not telecast on HBO has been nominated.
