I thought Gervais was decently funny. And only Carell can keep a straight face that long haha.

Too bad he didn't host. Emmy decided for quantity over quality.

...but Katherine Heigl said my material wasn't Emmy worthy.

I'm easily amused tonight. That Conan O'Brien pic of the cast was awesome.

Colbert writing staff winning. It's about time, I love his show when I can catch it. Those nominee announcements were the funniest things yet on this painful broadcast.

This show is a disaster. Every segment has misfired horribly.

This Groban theme song montage isn't actually bad imo. Too bad I don't like Groban. Oh well. At least he's not butchering it like the national anthem last monday haha

Only when the hosts were involved or it strayed away from awards.

It was past horrible. I wanted to puke on myself. I can't imagine this humor being funny to anyone.

So if you were on 30 Rock last year, you got an Emmy nod?

He wishes he were a vampire right then, based on his look.

Apparently. I'm not fan of the show. Same with Pushing Daisies. Don't really see they hype in them, and the latter isn't my style.

Reality show hosts to host the Emmy's? Is this to get more viewers?
Horrible idea.

Tina Fey has to love the fact that Lauren Conrad presented her with the award
