Julie Bowen - Modern Family

Modern Family again for Outstanding Supporting Actor!!
Ty Burrell - Modern Family

I have no idea who all these people are. . .I coulda sworn I watch alot of TV but I guess I've been slacking.

Okay where's everyone? I'm trying to hide the crazy here people and talking to myself. . .it doesn't help none.

Modern Family just won again for Best Director

Modern Family is batting 4 for 4. . .just won Best Writing

I think Jane Lynch is doing a great job as host. . .I mean I'm not bored yet.

modern family again? glad to see most of my shows are up for something


@sisikill

Charlie Sheen presenting Lead Actor for a comedy series. . .why they allow this guy anywhere near the stage is beyond me.

Okay, his speech was okay. . .nice even.

"The Big slam Theory" - Jim Parsons as Sheldon Cooper

Omolulu:

@sisikill

Not all of them. . .Mad Men, Friday Night Lights, Dexter and that's about it I think.

ur really missing some good shows, boardwalk,big ba.n.g, men of a certain age

Charlie Sheen's Speech. . .Bet everyone was holding their breath wondering what the crackhead is about to say 

“Before I present the award in my old catagory I wanna take a moment to get something off my chest and say something to all my friends form Two and a Half Men.” From the bottom of my heart, I wish nothing but the best for this upcoming season. We spent 8 wonderful years together, I know you will continue to make great television. Now onto the Emmy.”

Omolulu:

your really missing some good shows, boardwalk,big ba.n.g, men of a certain age

I just realized that!! Thank goodness for Hulu.

Outstanding lead Actress - Melissa McCarthy

I've always like here, thought she was good in Gilmore Girls and brilliant in Bridesmaids.

Alright, I'm bored 

Amazing Race wins for Best reality Show (Didn't know the show is still on air)

Writing team for the Daily show just won! Now THAT I can gel with!!

Daily Show is where I catch up on current events 

This Category seems to alternate the wins between Daily Show and Colbert Report!

Fun Fact (in case anyone goes on Jeopardy  ) - Amazing Race has won OUTSTANDING REALITY SHOW 8 out of 9 times since the category was launched,  They lost last year  to Top Chef.

The need to STOP these silly musical numbers, they are boring and awkward and very boring.

Wow!!!! The Daily Show wins Best Comedy/Variety Series.

It has won this category for 9 consecutive years!

I love Jon Stewart!!!!!

This is how Scott Caan, the guy who presented this category, introduced the nominees "“here is a look at the shows that will lose to The Daily Show this year" 

Don Roy King is the winner in the best director for a variety/comedy series for the James Timberlake/Lady Gaga episode of SNL

Did anyone see that episode? I'm not a JT fan but that was hilarious, I'll try to find some clips!
