Parker wins award for Best Actress in a TV Series Comedy or Musical. The other nominees were Marica Cross, Teri Hatcher, Felicity Huffman and Eva Longoria each from the show Desperate Housewives.

I didn’t have a speech or anything, I thought Felicity was going to win, so I was really surprised. Teri Hatcher was so sweet to me. I voted for you for the other award. We were all desperate housewives, mine was just a little more desperate than they were.
