In all honesty, his Denny Craig routine on **The Practice** was hilarious, but it would have been nice to see Bob Newhart (who’s never won an Emmy) take it home for his **ER** stint. Sharon Stone also won for her _Practice_ guest appearance. Now, James Spader needs to win for his fantastic Alan Shore.

Some other winners of the Craft/Technical awards announced:

**Star Trek: Enterprise** : Musical score (_Similitude_ episode), Visual Effects (_Countdown_ episode)  
**Carnivale** : Cinematography, Art Direction, Costumes, Hairstyling, Title Design  
**24** : Casting, Editing, Sound Mixing, Stunt Coordination  
**Angels in America** : Art Direction, Casting, Make-up, Sound Mixing  
**Monk** : Randy Newman’s new theme song (the previous instrumental title music also won an Emmy). John Turturro also won an Emmy for his guest stint as Monk’s brother.  
**Arrested Development** : Casting, Editing  
**Frasier** : Art Direction, Sound Mixing, Guest Actress: Laura Linney  
**Queer Eye for the Straight Guy** : Reality Program (non-competitive)  
**Samurai Jack** : Animated program (beating _The Simpsons_, though Dan Castellaneta won a voice-over award)  
**Deadwood** : Sound Editing

It was taped Sunday and will air this Saturday on _E!_ so you’ve not missed anything.

Actually, these are the Emmys that are always announced earlier. The main Emmy awards (Best Comedy, Best Drama, Best Lead Actor, etc.) that are broadcast are this Sunday, 9/19.
