  1. The Wire never won one Emmy. I repeat, the greatest and most critically acclaimed television show in history was never awarded an Emmy.

    These awards mean nothing. It's basically a popularity contest and fashion show.

    1. I've always wondered about that, great show no doubt and great acting.

  2. I have never seen Homeland, so I don't know if it's any good, but I am glad to see Damian Lewis recognized.

    Love Downton Abbey, so happy for Dame Maggie Smith!

  3. Happy for Homeland! GREAT show!

  4. i feel a wee bad for not caring about this event...i just want us to get to pictures so someone can please explain ashley judd's juiced-and-roided bouffant.

    that is all.

  5. What's with all the Modern Family wins and Cryer win? Seems like shows that have been on that long don't win much.

    ReplyDelete
  6. I agreed with all the Drama wins.

    I agreed with none of the Comedy wins.

    But what did I expect. It's not like the Emmy voters understand comedy anyway.

  7. Long time lurker - first time poster (w the time difference I'm usually way too late to join the fun)... Anyhoo, I would have just loved it if Steve Buscemi had won - I think he is just fab in Boardwalk Empire - but good on Damian, he was pretty darn amazing in Homeland.

    Oh and I just adored the shocker yellow/chartreuse dresses worn by both Julie Bowens and Claire Danes - I think I might be the only one though!

    p.s. Ashley why are you wearing a circa 1990's bridesmaids dress?

    ReplyDelete
  8. I loved Julie's dress too! I'm a blond, I might try to pull off that color now. Girls should have won best comedy. It is completely original and hilarious in a horrifying way.

    ReplyDelete
  9. It was The Modern Family show last night. Again. Boring.
    Kevin Costner was so blase' about winning I wanted to slap him.
    I so wanted Cat Deely to win, but I love Tom too.

    ReplyDelete
  10. I think Peter Dinklage should have won for Game of Thrones. I think he is great!

    ReplyDelete
  11. Peter Dinklage is awesome but, Aaron Paul is tight yo!

    I can't believe the guy from homeland and homeland itself beat out GOT, BB, and BE.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Yaay for Aaron Paul!! He do deserved the win!

  13. Im still so sad Peter Dinklage didn't win. He makes Tyrion so damn likeable, even though he is trying to basically get rid of all the characters I love. GOT (and the books) are so wonderful, i spent my weekend sick as a dog and i watched every episode.

    I still haven't watched Homeland OR Breaking Bad but Ive heard a lot of good things about both shows so I'm sure those are deserved wins. Damian Lewis is my favorite ginger (Sorry Conan) and he was incredible in Band of Brothers.

    1. Sorry you are sick CB :(

      Hope you are resting up with a big bowl of chicken soup! Hugs to you :D

    2. Tyrion is George RR Martin's fav character. He's not going anywhere for a while (at least I hope not :/)

  14. I can't watch award shows any more - they're just popularity contests. How many other professions have self-adoring awards like these? Nursing? Small business owner? Factory worker? Waiter/waitress? Just industries who can publicize the awards - entertainment, journalism, writing.

    And yeah, love Steve Buscemi. I've had nightmares each Sunday night after watching Boardwalk Empire.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Happy for Homeland, it's a great show and Game Change was a great movie and deserve the wins but the winners in all the comedy categories feel stale and done, there were better choices!

    ReplyDelete
  16. Yay for Aaron Paul!

    I'm gonna have to catch up with Homeland, have heard nothing but great things about it!

    ReplyDelete
  17. Ugh the Cryer win is when I realized the Emmys are a farce.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Duckie won for comedic lead actor? Me thinks the voters were charitable after having survived the Charlie Sheen explosion and then being required to work opposite Aston.

    ReplyDelete
  19. The fact that The Big Bang Theory even gets nominated for "awards" is enough reason for me to think the show is bullshit. That show is the most unfunny thing on television, right before Two and a Half Men (Jon Cryer for the win? You kidding me?).

    ReplyDelete
  20. Cryer? Two and a half men? Are you freaking kidding me?

    Julie Bowen? I love Modern Family, and her character is okay but not nearly as good as Mayim Bialek's on Big Bang Theory.

    I wish Colbert Report would win over Daily Show just ONCE.

  21. I'm with Pookie - I just want to look at the red carpet pictures. I don't even watch any of these shows - I'm officially a middle-aged mom who doesn't know what's hip and doesn't even care :-). But I still love me some red carpet snark!

    (If you need me during Prime Time, I'll be watching baseball or dvr'ed Antiques Roadshows. And working on my needlepoint. I'm that boring :-).)

    ReplyDelete
  22. Cryer got the "2nd banana" award. He was great in the early years of the show, last year they gave him the crappiest, most moronic things to do and he did them, he deserves the award just for enduring Charlie, Chuck & Ashton.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Thanks for this list Enty. I'm sure it will be handy for one of your upcoming juicy blinds!

    ReplyDelete
  24. Ok, I just reviewed red carpet pics over at Us Weekly, and today's Randoms should be great fun! I think this year's Emmys had more WTF than ever! I felt like I needed a pencil and notepad to keep track of all the actresses who have made poor facial augmentation choices. And don't get me started on their boob management skills - some of those dresses are NOT getting the job done!

    Come on, Random Pics time!

    ReplyDelete
  25. I'm just clad Tim Van Patten won for Boardwalk Empire, that show never gets enough props

    ReplyDelete
  26. :O No Peter Dinklage as a winner? Come on, the guy is brilliant. Same as Kathryn Joosten, amazing on DH.

    I'm ten episodes in to season 1 of Boarwalk Empire. I friggin love it.

    I'm in love with Game of Thrones but felt the second season was a little rushed. Season one stayed so true to book one, yet season 2 which follows book two veered off and the quality ( IMHO ) dropped a bit. I hear they are doing 2 seasons for book 3 which is perfect. Besides by the time book 6 comes out HBO might be out of source material!

  28. My boyfriend went to high school with Aaron Paul from breaking bad. Congrats to him for winning best supporting actor. He said he was going to Hollywood to make it big and he did!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Dandelion - I was thinking the same thing! He did not look happy.

    ReplyDelete
  30. It is sad but fair that 30 Rock won nothing this year, but Tina Fey deserves one last Emmy for forbearance for having to put up with Alec Baldwin and Tracy Morgan for seven years.

    ReplyDelete
  31. I don't understand how Two and a Half Men is still even on TV, much less how Jon Criar can be considered the best comedic actor. What a load of crap!

    ReplyDelete
  32. I wish Jared Harris won for his performance in the "Commissions and Fees" episode of Mad Men. That episode effected me so much after watching it. I felt a slight bit of depression from watching it and to have that happen from a TV show says a lot to me.

    ReplyDelete
  33. God, so glad Girls didn't win anything...Lena, please go meet Diablo in fad purgatory...
