?Glee? star Chris Colfer talks about his Emmy dilemma: ?I am not funny. I cry in every episode.?

But will he be nominated again this year? His character?s storyline was deeply moving and emotional but didn?t provide a lot of laughs this season. That?s why it?s a shame that Glee has to compete in the comedy category. Only Jane Lynch, who won the Emmy last year, gets to be truly funny with all of her Sue Sylvester zingers.
Here is Colfer chatting with TV/Line?s Michael Ausiello about the Emmys. Here is an excerpt:
TVLINE | What did you think of Kurt?s journey last season?
I loved it. His [Season 2] journey completely surpassed last year. Last year was all about him accepting who he was. And Season 2 was more about everyone else accepting him for who he was. I couldn?t be prouder and happier to be playing this character. He?s so inspirational to everyone, myself included.
TVLINE | Most of your shining moments last season were dramatic. Is it odd competing in a comedy category?
Yeah. It?s funny when I have nominations in best supporting actor in a comedy and I?m never funny. People I?m usually nominated with are all pranksters and jokers, and I am not funny. I cry in every episode.
TVLINE | Have you given any thought to which episode you?d submit should you get nominated?
Last year when I was fortunate enough to get nominated it was so easy because I had one episode where I just did everything. But I?ve had so many of those this season it?s going to be a Sophie?s Choice if I get nominated again. Kurt had so many great moments. It?s going to be difficult to pick one. Maybe I?ll ask the fans.
