Arte Johnson is alive at 79; I have no idea about his health. Henry Gibson is still with us. Of course Goldie Hawn is too big a star. Richard Dawson never did the comedy wall, IIRC.
No huge surprises. No big disappointments. Glad Hargitay didn’t pick up a golden dildo for her overblown performance.
Still think Robert Sean Leonard got overlooked for “Wilson’s Heart” this year. Same for Anne in her guest role as Amber. But way to slobber all over Hugh again this year. No surprises here, still. Good job to 30 Rock and Mad Men and most mad props to HBO’s John Adams. Hurrah to cable, baby, that’s where it’s at.
I thought these Emmy’s were the funniest and most industry-bashing I’ve seen in a long while. Now I wish I’d sat thru Josh Groban, but musical montages have burned their bridge with me. Burned, I say!
What’s up with Tom Hank’s hair? I thought it was just for Charlie Wilson’s War, but looks like it’s a permanent do?
Soooo many traditional film stars there. Felt like the Oscars.
