I'm on the West Coast and NBC was smart enough to continue to run ads about Ricky Gervais hosting the show.... 2 hours into the show!

The West Coast is re-airing it again from 8pm to 11pm if any of you missed the early airing.

But, there is alot of good scripted shows tonight to get through.

I also liked seeing the dog from The Artist stealing the show.

If anyone's wondering, here's the backstory on Martin Henderson. He's the guy Dinklage was talking about during his acceptance speech.

Kelsey probably won based on his performance in the episode called "Stasis" alone.

That was a fucking amazing performance.

Watching the re-air right now and very happy to see Kate Winslet win for Mildred Pierce. That was a really solid miniseries. It just came out on BD recently and I highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it yet.

I thought he was talking about the actor who starred in Torque, but couldn't find anything where something bad had happened.

Just saw Homeland winning for best drama on the re-air. Again, I'm ecstatic the show won. Now, I'm hoping it takes best drama at the Emmys later this year.

For those who didn't watch it on Showtime, but want to see it, the BD is up for pre-order on Amazon for $41.99. No release date yet.

I think that was the best hour of TV I saw all year.

The fact that Breaking Bad wasn't even nominated diminishes any importance the award may have.

The best part of the night was David Fincher stealing Meryl Streep's glasses.

Homeland is a good show, but there are more than a couple shows that haven't even aired this TV season yet (Mad Men, Game of Thrones, etc..) that might make a pretty compelling arguement for that Emmy.

I will concede that Claire Danes is going to be pretty tough to beat.

I thought this was HILARIOUS. Seeing Clooney pass them up to Fincher...and Fincher obviously not wanting to interupt her speech to give them to her. Probably pissed this task was bestowed to him. The whole time she was talking all I could think about was these glasses. How would she get them back!?! Haha

I really don't understand this infatuation with being grotesquely skinny. They all look like they need 20 lbs.

Don't get me wrong, I like Meryl Streep but fuck! You won so many awards, is it really necessary to drone on and on and act like you can't believe you won this fabulous award? You knew you were going to win, you always win.

It was annoying to see her reaction after he name was called like she had never won an award before! She should be giving that reaction if she doesn't win the award every damn year!

I watched about half. I tuned in for Gervais and there wasn't nearly enough of him. I did love him asking Depp if he actually saw the Tourist yet.

The most unintentionally funny thing of the night was when Idris Elba was starting his speech, it seemed like the lighting got 200% brighter. Around the :17 mark:

She doesn't "always win". Believe it or not, she hasn't won an Oscar since 1983.
