(December 14 2006) - Let the recognition continue to roll in for shows like "Battlestar Galactica" and "Heroes," this time with the Writers Guild of
America, which tends to sometimes be a precursor to possible Emmy attention. The two-part third season premiere of "Battlestar Galactica,"
the Ronald D. Moore-penned "Occupation" and "Precipice," earned a nomination for Episodic Writing, joining ABC's "Lost" in the category for the
episode "Two for the Road," written by Elizabeth Sarnoff and Christina Kim. Other nominees in the category include "The West
Wing," "Nightmares & Dreamscapes," "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip" and "Big Love."

"Lost" actually was a double-nominee, also getting a nod for Dramatic Series along with "24," "Deadwood," "Grey's Anatomy" and "The
Sopranos." The writing team for "Lost" earning the recognition includes J.J. Abrams, Monica Owusu-Breen, Carlton Cuse, Leonard Dick, Drew
Goddard, Javier Grillo-Marxauch, Adam Horowitz, Dawn Lambersten Kelly, Kim, Edward Kitsis, Damon Lindelof, Steven Maeda, Jeff Pinkner,
Matt Ragghianti, Sarnoff and Alison Schapker.

Finally, NBC's "Heroes" is among the nominees for New Series joining programs such as "30 Rock," "Friday Night Lights," "Studio 60 on the
Sunset Strip" and "Ugly Betty." The writing staff for "Heroes" that are included in the nomination are Jesse Alexander, Adam Armus, Natalie
Chaidez, Aron Eli Coleite, Kay Foster, Bryan Fuller, Michael J. Green, Tim Kring, Jeph Loeb and Joe Pokaski.

"Lost" won WGA recognition last year for Dramatic Series. This year's winners will be announced Feb. 11 in both Los Angeles and New York. -
