So luckily only ten people or so read this blog nowadays. My predictions sucked this year! I only got 6 out of 16 categories this year. Overall, I was kind of bored, but maybe that was because I was losing all night. Anyway, here are some of my thoughts.
FIVE OBSERVATIONS:
1 What was up with the sound for the first hour or so? Was
that CTV or ABC’s fault? I missed a couple of Jimmy Kimmel’s jokes. Although
thankfully I was spared some of the inane commentary when people win? What
happened to the funny guy who was giving bizarre facts in past shows? It was
replaced this year with a chick telling us where the actor’s hometown is. Who
cares?
2 Jimmy Kimmel was alright but he was no Jimmy Fallon or
NPH. The opening was dull but I liked his Facebook prank and couple of his
comments.
3 So happy for Danny Strong’s win as the writer of Game Change. Of course, I’ll always
remember him as the nerdy Jonathan on Buffy
the Vampire Slayer. Made me smile.
4 Wished Amy Poehler would finally get an Emmy, but of
course Emmy can’t see past Julia Louis-Dreyfus for some reason. But I did love
the mixed up acceptance speech. Poehler is such a trooper. Give her an Emmy
dammit!
5 I like seeing full clips when they go through the
nominations. I don’t care how long it takes, it just seems more respectful. So
why were there clips for Lead Actress in a Drama Series but none for Lead Actor
in a Drama Series? I wanted to hear Bryan Cranston yell that ‘he is the danger’
again.

Yep. I was pretty bored with the show. So much so I only flicked back and forth.
