Emmy 2010 round-up
The Emmy’s were last night - which means two things: 1. My favorite shows getting praised (hopefully) and 2. Summer hiatus is almost over!
I was about half satisfied with the Emmy’s last night… I think Jimmy Fallon did a great job as host (I find him amusing about half the time and that’s pretty much all you can expect from an awards show). The comedy portion of the awards went pretty much how I would have liked them to: “Modern Family” won best comedy and that was WELL DESERVED. Even though I love “GLEE” - the second half of the season was pretty meh while on the other hand, Modern Family was consistently good every single week. I was also extremely pleased that Jim Parsons won for Sheldon - great, great character and guy and always hilarious! Jane Lynch, of course, for GLEE was also well deserved! And, I always support giving NPH an award no matter what he’s doing (wish they had aired it though… hello?!? I’d much rather see that than how the accountants used document management software to tabulate votes… come on now.)
As for Drama… well, I’m Pretty sick of “Mad Men” winning everything (yes, I’ve tried to watch it - I found it incredibly boring)… especially this year when “Dexter” was ABOVE AND BEYOND everything out there. It’s kind of shocking and dumbfounding that “Dexter” nor Michael C. Hall has never won an Emmy.. what?? Talk about underrated… Oh well, at least John Lithgow won - that’s one creepy MFer ;) The other big winner was “Breaking Bad” which I have never watched either… guess I need to at least give it a try someday.
Other random thoughts:
-Alexandar Skarsgard is a GIANT hot piece of man.
-Bill & Sookie were so cute <3 I don’t so much like their characters together but they actors are adorable!
-So glad “LOST” didn’t win anything, I don’t want such bullshit writing tactics to be rewarded :P
-I have now added “Temple Grandan” and “You Don’t Know Jack” to my queu of movies to see.. looks interesting.
