On a side note, why do I give a fuck where these people were born and or grew up??

 

[Tamanon]

That was a weird cutaway to just point at Bob Newhart.

 

[Cru]

They will have a James Gandolfini one of those I am assuming?

I believe so.

 

[redmetal86]

I....I need more Vergara. Her time on stage was too short.

 

[CrimsonCommie]

Turned it on just as Sofia came to the stage but then BBT won :/

 

[Colonel Nasty]

I'm here with the walking corpse of Bob Newhart.

 

[Frost_Ace]

They will have a James Gandolfini one of those I am assuming?

yup, Edie Falco will be speaking (((

 

[DrEvil]

Can someone post the winners so far tonight?

Some dude, a chick, the governor of Alaska and her daughter, Another guy who once lost his hand, his boss, some girl who likes Hitchcock, a guy no one likes and probably a couple of other people.

 

[knicks]

Well BB is on in 8 min, sucks I'll probably miss the better half.

 

[Syf]

I'm here with the walking corpse of Bob Newhart.

LOL

And Louis C fucking K!

How he wins year after year confuses me.

This reminds me I gotta watch Louis CK.

I have no doubt Jim Parsons is a good actor, but Sheldon has become more annoying than interesting and, as someone in the thread already said, overdone. I guess him still being likable to most people is testament to Parsons' charm and skill.

 

[Sanjuro]

What do people see in Jim Parsons.

This just confirms my belief that nobody in the media actually watches Louie.

Nobody should. It's a gross show for people who love masturbating.

Well BB is on in 8 min, sucks I'll probably miss the better half.

I'll stick around until around 9:20. That way I can fast-forward through BB's commercial breaks.

 

[WedgeX]

Have not watched the 4th season of Arrested Development yet, but quite sad that Alec Baldwin didn't end up being recognized for the last season of 30 rock.

 

[WonkyPanda]

You don't like when famous people rep your hometown?

 

[BadTaste]

No livestream guys? Grr

 

[equippedwithtowel]

Nobody should. It's a gross show for people who love masturbating.

 

[Raxus]

Ok Breaking Bad time. See you soon.

 

[BertramCooper]

Have not watched the 4th season of Arrested Development yet, but quite sad that Alec Baldwin didn't end up being recognized for the last season of 30 rock.

He's already got two awards for Jack Donaghy. That's plenty.

I mean, Jack Donaghy is no Sheldon Cooper.

 

[NomarTyme]

I still got the sex scene in my head.

 

[kingkitty]

I bet either Homeland or House of Cards will take home the drama win.

Now it's Breaking Bad time!

 

[C4Lukins]

They will have a James Gandolfini one of those I am assuming?

Yeah but no Larry Hagman.

 

[Colonel Nasty]

Michaels gonna warn us about the dangers of going down south.

 

[Talon]

It seems really bizarre to think that Brokeback Mountain was scandalous when it was first announced in the summer of 2003.

 

[Ripclawe]

Why is Elton John Here?? and you suck at reading cue cards.

 

[Tamanon]

A new Elton John song? Hmm.

 

[ivysaur12]

@VP 21m
We must confess – OVP is rooting for Amy Poehler (Leslie Knope) of @parksandrecnbc tonight on the #emmys. Good luck!

Aw, Joe!

 

[iammeiam]

Oh god don't play music
don't play music
don't play mus--goddammit

 

[Talon]

Elton John is great. Haha.

 

[DrEvil]

Piano chords on the TelePrompter? That's a new one.


Time for dexter and breaking bad. I'm out!

 

[BertramCooper]

It seems really bizarre to think that Brokeback Mountain was scandalous when it was first announced in the summer of 2003.

Well, according to Steven Soderbergh, Behind the Candelabra couldn't get a theatrical release because it was considered "too gay" for mainstream audiences, so Hollywood definitely isn't completely over it.

I find it more believable that it couldn't get a theatrical release because it would've bombed spectacularly.

I really distinctly reading a blurb in EW that summer saying "Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal in talks for western film that will involve homosexual sex scenes. What scandal!!!"

 

[cLOUDo]

jim parsons, seriously?

where is jim rash's nomination?

 

[Neodiablo22]

I'm not sure if I should continue watching or switch to breaking bad...tough call

 

[Tamanon]

Ya know what, Elton can still sing pretty dang good. Song's kinda eh though.

 

[BertramCooper]

I find it more believable that it couldn't get a theatrical release because it would've bombed spectacularly.

It's a Soderbergh movie. Nobody would have ever expected it to be a blockbuster.

And it wouldn't have "bombed." GAF thinks everything bombs.

 

[Ripclawe]

even for a soderbergh movie, it would have tanked. No one asked for a movie about Liberace.

 

[ivysaur12]

Why the hell would CBS do this right as Breaking Bad was starting? Are they dumb?

 

[Sanjuro]

Breaking Bad. So long Emmys...good luck in the ratings.

 

[Frost_Ace]

must resist going into the BrBa thread

 

[aparisi2274]

Wow, this sucks!!!

 

[ivysaur12]

It's a Soderbergh movie. Nobody would have ever expected it to be a blockbuster.

And it wouldn't have "bombed." GAF thinks everything bombs.

And most Soderbergh films do well enough. And you're right -- everything bombs or flops on GAF!

 

[iammeiam]

Why the hell would CBS do this right as Breaking Bad was starting? Are they dumb?

"Nobody is going to be watching this hour, we might as well cram all the shit nobody cares about into it."

 

[Talon]

Don't do me like that, Bert. We're bros.

I just don't see much of a general audience for the film.

 

[C4Lukins]

It seems really bizarre to think that Brokeback Mountain was scandalous when it was first announced in the summer of 2003.

It was not ever scandalous. There was some controversy, but it made money. It really was not that controversial. The finger licking was the only moment where people took pause.

 

[Tamanon]

That was one of the laziest songs Elton's written.

 

[WonkyPanda]

Jessica Lange better win this.


EDIT: oh what the hell.

 

[Talon]

That was one of the laziest songs Elton's written.

He doesn't write his own lyrics.
