Last year's big comedy winner for The Streamy Awards, one of them thar newfangled honors for the people who produce recurring series for the Internet, is back with new nominations, but in 2010, The Guild will face a new set of competition for comedy prizes. Reserving further comment for later (hopefully sooner rather than later), here are the comedy nominees for the 2010 Streamy Awards.
Zach Galifianakis, hosting Saturday Night Live this week in a show that already has prompted everyone who claims to have known Galifianakis before he was "famous" to reserve a spot inside 30 Rock, is up for two Streamys, as is Kevin Pollak for his "chat show," and David Wain's Wainy Days also weighs in with multiple nods. The full slate of comedy nominees for Streamys, after the jump.
