Hi everyone...thanks for joining me tonight. Let's hope Kanye doesn't have an outburst during Neil Patrick Harris' opening number.

Guess it's a host requirement to sing!

Lookin forward to Jack hosting the blog! Maybe next year he'll be Emmy host!

Great opening number by NPH!

hi Jack!

Neil Patrick Harris is adorable!this should be fun

Funny opening good for him

Hello Jack!
Hello everyone!!!!

Hey Jack!
Cant wait to hear your witty commentary! Love ya!

Woo wait to go Neil! great

So glad NPH is hosting! He is totally awesome!

Hi everyone. Good opening number.

I love NPH! I'm following him on twitter now!

I will be totally disappointed if we don't get a Kanye type outburst from Stephen Colbert or Jon Stewart tonight : )

Woo Hoo! Here's hoping for a Kayne West/Elaine Stritch Cage Match!

Cool

NPH is right...it's sad that there aren't TV theme songs anymore. Family Ties, Mr. Belvedere, Dallas, Dynasty...what's your favorite?

I hate the Emmys, but I love Jack Gray so I am here

Neil's been in a few Broadway shows. He can sing the whole show!

Hey Jack, looking forward to spending Emmy night with you and fellow bloggers. I just love Leon Patrick Harris. ~ L.C.

Cheers & friends theme songs r classics

Love Neil Patrick's tux!

Favorite Theme Show, hmmm, Gilligan's island comes to mind.

One of my favorite themes was actually from Veronica Mars

The best TV theme song? "The Facts of Life"! Well, tied with "The Greatest American Hero"!

Good evening, everyone! And thanks so much for hosting a chat, Jack!

Unfortunately I missed the first number. Was it good?

Hehe, I love NPH! I think he's a great choice to host the Emmy's.

Ha. Can't say I remember the theme song to Mr. Belvedere.

6 minutes in and we get a kayne joke.

Man, I hope Jim Parsons wins for Big Bang Theory! I love that show!!

But if we are speaking of true Theme songs i must say Gilligan's Island was one of them

Yes, Stacy. GI theme was great.

Why do I have to wait until 7 pm to see it in AZ?

Okay, a Kanye outburst would be too obvious, but anyone think we might get a "you lie!"?

Can we expect some fun interruptions? I'll put $5 on it!

Hamm was great on 30 Rock.

Favorite TV Theme Song - For me a tie between "Cheers" and maybe "The Beverly Hillbillys"

Hi Anderson !

Wishing the red carpet turn to green cleanly !

I love you !

An !

So, how many Kanye jokes will there be? One so far...

Should I be sad the only nominees I recognize are from SNL?

Favorite Theme Song: The Office!

Yes, I love an upset!!!!

What was up with stupid classes on womens category

LOL, Vannessa is a stick in the mud!

Yea! Kristen! WTG!

Loved all the ladies with the glasses.

Awww, man. I have to get off blog. I'm in Mountain Time; still have 45 minutes until show time. Dang it. Have fun everybody and goodnight. ~ L.C.

Hey, I made it. Hard time getting on, the WiFi signal is pretty weak. I hope I can hang with you all for the duration of the show.

Although he annoys me to no end, I think Harris' opening was great.

Keep the Kanye jokes comin....he deserves it!

OH OH Vanessa didn't get the memo?

Aw, I like Kristen. She's like this tiny package of cuteness.

I don't think its fair those of us on the West Coast have to wait to see it!

Pushing Daisies was one of the best shows on tv...so sad it went off the air...love Kristen Chenowerth

what did she say?

Who was that?

I'm with you Stacy from NJ! He's hilarious!

CNN mentioned in opening act/song yay lol

I think the statue is bigger than Kristen! Loved her hire me speech.

Jack ,
Are you are with glasses too? lol...

American Idol should win breakthru scene...whatever it is

Let's go sheldon!!!

are there any dogergories for best Siberian Husky in?

Aww, was he shaky and nervous while opening up the show??

Hoping Jim Parsons, Big Bang Theory, goes home with an Emmy!

Should have gone to Amy Poehler!

what did the first winner say? didn't get a word of it...

Dear, Lord! Christine's Emmy must weigh more than she does. What happen? Did they make her lose weight for TV show? That's mad.

So far, kinda boring. Where's Kanye?!!

Do the jitterbug like Lucy ! You'll see ! Support our troops in Afghan to win ! When ? Red Carpet Hollywood come in ! Who taps like Sammy Davis Jr ?

Kristin was so sweet. "I'm unemployed so I want to be on Mad Men!" "This is really heavy!"

Favorite theme Song.... Maude

My favorite theme songs are from True Blood and Hung.

20 minutes in and only 1 award given, it's gonna be a long night

NPH rocks. Great opening. Chenowith....I had to change the channel during that acceptance speech.

My favourite tv theme songs.. Beverly Hillbillies, Green Acres, Gilligan's Island.. just can't find themes like that anymore

Christine Chenoworth, is it me or is the Emmy almost taller than her...

Neil was Great!! I agree too, wheres all the theme songs at. I could alway sing the theme songs growing up...well I still can..he he

They had many Kanya jokes on the red carpet already! He accomplished what he set out to! Booyah!!

@ Stacy

Only if they do a montage of bad behavior.

NPH opening was really good!

Is everyone else watching in their evening gowns and tuxes at home?

Hai, Jack! aw..good to have u live blogging during award shows..last time I joined a Live Blog of yours, I think I won $50..the Emmys are on tape delay here on MST. I would bet this time, but family is not falling for it. Any predictions for tonite?

hello jack – hiya 2 everybody – Copper Rawks !!!

NPH seemed a bit nervous... I am sorry but I laughed at tina fey's presentation bit more...

Jon Hamm, Jack Gray, NPH. Tonights gonna be a good good night. Kristin C won't be talking much more, right? Makes my head hurt. I like her- but that voice!

@egomro4- hope Jim parsons wins for big bang he's a riot

Whoo hoo – thanks for hosting another Live Awards Blog Jack – gonna be a great time online – (if our Oscar's session was anything to go by) !!

Kristen Chenoweth is so cute – I am so happy for her that she won. Pushing Daisies was a great show.

Doogie Howser sings very well!

canceled shows always get Emmy's...hhhmmm

NPH knocked it out of the park again – he should be the de-facto host for ALL award going forward

Tanya whines because she has to wait 'till 7p.m.? W have to wait 'till 8p.m.!!! Guam already saw the whole show tomorrow! Woof!

30 rock, 30 rock, 30 rock!!!

"I'ma let u get back to ur opening number, Neil Patrick Harris..but Hugh Jackman had the BEST OPENING ACT OF ALL TIME"..is what Kanye probably is thinking to himself. ha

that's the pc guy in the mac commercials

Kritsin Chenoweth – Wicked!!!

My internet service picked a great time to crash. I probably should have paid the bill. Back up and running. Cross your fingers.

Amy and Julia look awesome! Bet they'd be great in a sitcom together!

I am biased in favor of anything/everyone connected to 30 Rock. I think it's the funniest show on television.

I wanted Kenneth to win!!! or NPH!!!!

he's not funny.

@Maria yeah, i never "get that" canceled shows winning awards (?) ditto on the hmmmm

Rainn and Kevin had sour pusses! Congrats to Jon Cryer for winning.

I love Jon Cryer! So happy for him!!

@jack: Thought you might be having problems. It always happens at the worst time. Fingers crossed.

Another upset! Kevin D. didn't look happy....It truly is an honor to be nominated!

omg Ducky won!

Jon Crier is so funny

Good to see John Cryer finally get an award.

I'm with you on 30 Rock Jack. They just got robbed!

Jon Cryer looks quite surprised and all of the other nominees are definitely shocked!

Tracey Morgan was robbed!

Dallas vs. Giants.......sorry Emmy, gotta go with what's on now....hope Big Bang wins BIG!!! (John Madden @ game!!!)

Aww, so happy for Jon Cryer. Been a fan ever since the Duckie days. Wow, I just aged myself.

YES!!!! I want Jim Parsons from Big Bang Theory to win, however he's not on the isle, that's the kiss of death!

@Jack,
This excuse of internet service crashed never convinced my boss!

I love John Hodgman doing the voiceovers. And here's his commercial too!

Nothing better than Two and a Half Men to kill any bad day!

Jon Cryer is excellent in his role! Happy for him -

Is Two and a Half Men the new Everybody Loves Raymond? 6 yrs and running

tracey morgan is a hoot! he was robbed.

DUCKIE WON! Jon Cryer will always be Duckie from "Pretty In Pink" to me...

Jack,

30 rock IS the funniest show on TV, hands down

So all this talk about Neil Patrick Harris. Does anyone remember Wanda from Doogie Howser, MD? Whatever happened to her? I think Vinnie was on The Sopranos for a while.

yes, Kevin Dillon did NOT look happy, guess he thought it was his year!

My fave tv theme songs where The Jeffersons and All in the Family

Anybody watch Two and A Half Men? It seems like it's been on forever, but I don't know anyone who watches it.

John Cryer's outfit was stolen from the wardrobe of "Pretty in Pink"

Stacy – I don't watch it. Then again, I only watch a handful of scripted shows.

I think Wanda was in an episode of 'Law & Order:SVU' last season...or was it 'Cold Case'?

Jack Gray...u mean Winnie?,

'Clara's Heart' movie with Woopie and Neil Patrick Harris goes back farther than Doggie Howser MD – @jack yeah Vinnie on Sopranos dont know about Wanda

My dad watched Two and a Half Men religiously.
Thaaaat's about it.

Kristen Wiig should have gotten the Emmy, she's brilliant on SNL!

LOL. The host lost. He's just cute. And JT too.

What's up with the glasses JT?

And now the portion of the evening where I silently resent Justin Timberlake and his abs.

Justin T. finally shaved! And he also now looks about 18...

@ Diane, yes...."We're moving on up...." was a great theme – but for me, Mary Tyler Moore Show and the theme to Hawaii 5-0 was (and still are) my faves.

Hmm...who's gonna win comedy actress?!?!

Why is JT presenting in a comedy category? Odd...

Go MLP!

Yea to Justin for the shout out to Bea Arthur!

Poor Justin, never should have looked at Sarah!

Awww... never watched the show but heard it dealt with serious issues.

Did anyone even watch this show??? is it STILL on??
A night full of surprises....

Sarah Silverman can always make me laugh!!!

Only Sara Silverman would wear a stach...with a straight face. I'm surprised Tina didn't get it.

Wow – lots of "sour" faces in the audience tonite (hmmmm....) – Murial WINS !!

Woo-woo JT in glasses...so cute!

what is the show Toni Colette won for?

Not sure I like Justin's glasses? Sarah Silverman's mustach?? Toni Collette's dress is absolutely gorgeous!!

Loved chenoweth's acceptance speech

I've never heard Toni Collette speak in her natural voice- great accent!

Yay!!! Toni Colette fab as schizo Tara! This is great for a not so publicized show.

Ooh was that an upset? Was rooting for Tina Fey. (And also a bit curious to hear what a Sarah Silverman acceptance speech would have sounded like.)

My fave tv theme songs where The A time and Dallas...

United States of Tara.
Did anyone watch it??

toni collette, nice although I haven't watched her show

Wow– Toni Collette won- wonder how Tina Fey is feeling?

Toni Collette?????

@gil LOL now you got me humming Hawaii 5-0 )

Toni won for "United States of Tara," which I've never seen.

@Jack: United States of Tara. No, never seen it.

jim parsons should've won for the amount and difficulty of dialogue he has to remember!

Sarah Silverman did not look to happy.

What? A man breast feeding? What was she talking about???

Toni is rail thin!

Arial font ... whoooo...

Go Jim Parsons!

United States of Tara is the show Toni won for. It is written by Diablo Cody.

I've said it before, I'll say it again: if loving Gossip Girl is wrong, I don't want to be right.

It is a showtime series created by Diablo Cody.

Heidi Klum is obviously – out!

NOt feeling Blake's hair...well the back part of it. Does anyone else agree?

I love Sarah Silverman's mustache...looks cute

I never got into Gossip Girl, but "Good Girls Go Bad" is my 2009 jam! Therefore, I love Leighton M.

Tina SNL!!

Oh look, Princess Lea's ear muffs fell on LM's shoulders!

What's with the bandages on her dress...I've seen shoulder pads but that is a little out there.

Hi Jack,

I do remember Wanda from Doogie Houser MD. Not sure where she went. Love that show brings back some great memories.

the only thing better than Justin Timberlake is Justin Timberlake twice!!

there is a fine line between TV actors and film actors now...see the guest actors on comedy shows

Sarah Silverman is "wearing" a nothing slight mustache! Lol ...

I guess that makes up a little for Tina's other loss. A little.

Hurray Tina and Justin! Justin is the best SNL guest host out there period!

Justin on SNL was the best!

Justin is so sweet

@Michelle I'm pretty sure that Sarah Silverman was goofing. Pretending to be pissed because of the shots of the guys that they showed.

Love "The Office."

Maria... Winnie was 'Wonder Yars'!

Where are Heidi & Spencer? Aren't they getting the Humanitarian Award or something?

hey Jack,
here's hoping Charlie Sheen is a winner tonight.
(oh, and bet you loved Serena's apperance)

Yes Jennifer NC,

I agree Justin is the best SNL host. Great call out! -T

@ Paula M. No those aren't bandages that is one of those airplane pillows that goes around the neck.

okay we can breathe – no Kayne so far LOL

Must you mention their names, Jack? You'll jinx the entire ceremony. Heidi will jump out and burst into another horrific lip-syncing round of her single "Body Language." *shudders*

@Jack: Shhhh. No mentions of Speidi. You might cause them to appear. And sing.

Justin as a BeeGee? I cried from laughing so hard..

Didn't you hear? Heidi is singing a triubte to all the great TV theme songs.....

Noooo Jack. NOOOOO..... no Speidi tonite (in any form)....please !! Wasn't Miss Universe pain enough for EVERYONE ?!?

Hope there's none Kanye West interruptions this time

Ha @gill after I wrote what I did I went to the kitchen and Hawaii 5-0 theme song immediately came to mind which then made me think of the Magnum PI theme lol. WOW! Looks like 30 Rock is taking over the night..

It would be great if Charlie Sheen won....never liked him until 2 1/2 Men

Rob Lowe AND reality tv highlights coming up? Its too much! I think I'm getting the vapors!

@Chris: At the risk of sounding junior high: jinx!

What's your favorite show of all-time? I'd have to go with Seinfeld.

My dogs are enjoying the Emmys too, but i think that has more to do with popcorn than Actors.

@Ana i with you on hoping Charlie Sheen iw winner @jack i got theme songs running thru my head, thx alot hahaha

I miss ABC afterschool specials!!

Favorite show of all-time? For scripted: toss-up between Desperate Housewives and Brothers & Sisters. Competition: American Idol or SYTYCD. "Reality": Real Housewives of New York/Atlanta!

Hi Jack,
Wouldn't it be more productive if the networks donated the money it takes to "put on" these events to a charity or host a telethon?

Friends!

I'm watching the Cowboys/Giants game with a switch over to Curb Your Enthusiasm in a few minutes. I may bump into the Emmy's when surfing but no plans to tune in for long.

I met Rob Lowe's Dad at an Urgent Care Center in WV

Alec Baldwin is beyond brilliant on 30 Rock.

I have never watched one episode of 30 Rock!

@Jack: Oh, that's impossible to answer. But Seinfeld is definitely somewhere at the top of the list.

The big bang theory ... I often find myself in the attitudes of them!

Fav Show All Time–Mary Hartman

I Love Lucy is the best TV show of all time! Even after 50 years, those episodes are hilarious! More recently, Will and Grace! It'll be a classic one day!

Whoohoo Alec Baldwin!

@Honeysucklerose....lol...now I get it...she just got off the plane!

Really??? Alec Baldwin??? Bleh!

Alec is great but I was really pulling for Tony Shaloub to get it this time.

United States of Tars is so greaat. You can watch it "On Demand" too!

I think this platform is Amazing and another great use of Social Media. Thank you Anderson Cooper and Jack Gray for all that you do! I appreciate it.

hi all....im watching the emmys now and i love them so far...everyone looks soo adorable....neil patrick is dressed soo good tonite....

love from louisiana!!!!!

go family guy..win best comedy series

hats off to Alec Baldwin. Agree with Jack, he IS brillian on 30 Rock. Sorry, Charlie...

Alec Baldwin is awesome, but I have a soft spot for Steve Carrell.

Ugh–I know 30 Rock is a great show–but I was hoping for someone else to win this year!!! Nothing against Alec–but ....

If Speidi appears then we'll have to call Kanye!

I still have a hate on for Alec Baldwin after wht he called his daughter. Just can't let that one go.

My favourite sitcom: Friends.

I like Alec Baldwin also!

Alec got that right about Rob lookin' good – gezz i love tina fey

I meant, LOL, United States of Tera is is so great. You can watch it “On Demand” too!

Alec Baldwin, again for 30 Rock!

Enough with 30 rock!!!! Come on...

30 Rock keeps winning, was hoping it was Sheldon from Big Bang theory... I'mma not happy!

@Jack...old school...Cosby or Fresh Prince...Golden Girls! Too many faves!

Fav show of all-time: comedy – Friends and drama – Gilmore Girls

DO THESE SHOWS STILL MATTER?

Congrats Alec Baldwin...Great job

Fav t.v. theme music,,,,, Jeffersons, Movin' on UP!

@Lynn: I know what you're saying. I've never been able to forget that either, even though he's very good in the show.

I don't know...beating up a dog...not so funny this year....

Live blog makes watching Emmys so much more fun!

I do not like Reality, because I don't think it is. I think it's all well directed and there is a script...

Seriously! When are they gonna give Steve Carrell the Emmy! Sheesh!

best show ever.....well Mad About You definitely in my top 10...Sopranos probably #1 ...Nurse Jackie just added to list

Was that whole cartoon thing they just did really necessary?

I'm sure I'm in the minority here, but I hate most reality television.

Extreme makeover is amazing!!!!!

@Honeysucklerose LOL @ "squint" hahahah

I better not have to watch Jon Gosselin win something

It's unbelievable how many reality shows are around....some of them are a waste of eye-power

Woot Kathy Griffin!

WHAT ARE THE MERRITS TO WIN AN EMMY? IS IT POPULARITY OR GREATNESS. SOME OF THESE SHOWS LACK THE MERRIT BUT ARE POPULAR..........HUM.....I

oh yikes...a dance number. did she kill Big Bird to make her dress?

Toni Colette plays someone with multiple personalities on United States of Tara. I thought she meant she was breastfeeding when she was dressed in her "man" personality.

What wonderful effect behind the panel!

The point of maxim & Karina on here is?

I think it's time to come clean and say it: My name is Kelly and I'm a reality show junkie. I'm hoping to get help on a special episode of Intervention.

Never watched 30 Rock either. Love Tina Fey, but can't stand Alec Baldwin! 

ooohhhh...ex's Max and Karina..the show must go on

Favorite show of all time: Mary Tyler Moore

The Nanny was good and I will still watch The Golden Girls; Will and Grace, Frasier..

"Melissa-Erie, Pa September 20th, 2009 8:50 pm ET

I have never watched one episode of 30 Rock!"

Me either!

Always love Tabitha and Napolean's choreography.

why does there have to be a reality portion...? they don't even include any of the Real Housewives shows (some of the Coop's fave)

The only reality shows I can stand are Project Runway and Kathy Griffin's D List.

Yeah Ryan!!

is Survivor still on?

@Stacy – no, you're not the only one – with the exception of the early seasons of 'Amazing race' (although from season 6 onwards they've kinda lost me as well), I've never seem to be able to get "in" to any of the reality shows – and I've made an effort to at least try.

Street dance... I love it!

Never got the whole Survivor thing

I think Jeff should have worn a tie.

Jeff Probst doesn't like ties does he?

Neil...you don't need a statue, you are awesome. But I must admit John Cryer is pretty damn good.

Drew Barrymore in Grey Gardens. Best Performance of the year!!!

who decides who wins an emmy?

Jeff Probst's speech was good.

I really hope Grey Gardens wins an award.

Did "The Mole" ever win an Emmy?

I don't know ... Jeff Probs, by Survivor
I don't agree...

Mark Burnett, the grandfather of reality shows. Is this the legacy of 21st century TV? Shuddering thought...

All time favorites: Carol Burnett, Red Skelton, Dean Martin...Variety shows were the best....

@ Gray: Frasier (comedy series). Ive recently discovered Malcom in the middle in syndecation...Love it!

They should make a special award for Ryan Seacrest for not sleeping for the last 6 years

is survivor still on?!?!?! of COURSE it is!!!

HBO's Grey Gardens was amazing (full disclosure, CNN and HBO are owned by the same parent company)....if you've never seen the original documentary, it's a must-watch. Especially if you're veering down the cat lady path...it might be the intervention you need.

Am doing my shout out to LITTLE DORRIT! What a great Dickensian adaptation. Hope it wins!!!

@Jack. Survivor is still on. I can't believe it either but they just aired a season premiere for the latest last week.

@Kimberley

I also hope that Gray Gardens win!
Gray Gardens is very good ... amazing!

Jack r u at the studio or at home watching?

I think Neil is doing a fine job of hosting and congrats to Alec Baldwin and Tina Fey! If Alec lost weight he would look better than Rob Lowe, he was such a "Baldwin" in his day!!

i love "Grey Gardens" watched it over & over. Should of / Could of been a hit at theaters – HBO was not enough of a offer to the masses

I think the stage is great this year & I could have done without that dance number!

Fave show?? That is just to hard to answer there are soooo many, Get Smart, The Odd Couple, The Love Boat, Star Trek, Mission Impossible, Murder She Wrote, I Dream of Jeannie, Matlock, In the Heat of the Night, Seinfeld...There are just to many faves lol!!!

@gill: I watch the news for reality. "Reality TV" is scripted and acted to a degree too; it's just done on the cheap. It's the TV version of junk food. Some is okay, but at this point we're all going to get diabetes.

Tracy Morgan...this could be interesting.

OMG, I hope Tracey isn't too drunk!

I don't find Tracy Morgan funny, and I think he's kind of a jerk.

oh, God. Please not American Idol...

I have never ever heard of the United States of Tara. And I watch a lot of TV.

I think none will surpass American Idol, no?

Congrats to the Duckman!!

I'll follow @JackGrayCNN anywhere

Love American Style back in the day was awesome.

Watching the Grey Gardens the movie first, followed by the original documentary, I was amazed how accurate in both character & visuals Drew's performance was to the actual "little Edie". Jessica Lange did a great job with Big Edie as well.

If the Amazing Race lost after that tearjerker clip, I would have been angry.

Love the Amazing Race!

And it's not what happened ... Amazing Race

Soooo glad Jeff Probst won whoot!

Shouldn't the people who actually were in the Amazing Race be the ones accepting the award?

The Amazing Race wins every year.

I don't really "get" Tracy Morgan. Is it just me?

@Isabel

Did you see the original documentary as well? Both are fantastic.

Joanne you're right! Does Ryan ever sleep?

Great opening by Neil Patrick Harris. Perfect choice for MC!! Lots of personality.

Neil Patrick Harris is doing great!!

Love that Amazing Race won Reality Comptition. NPH is right – upsets at every turn!!

Most reality show budgets are like $400K which is cheap for a network show. Minimum "salary" for a cast member on reality show can be as little as $700 or so bucks, so it cost alot less to make a reality show than a good drama/sitcom. If we keep watchin them, networks will continue to make them.

Grey Gardens, Grey Gardens, Grey Gardens!

@ jackgray "Especially if you’re veering down the cat lady path…it might be the intervention you need"

i resent that comment...nothing wrong with being a cat lady (i may be one when i grow up!) lol but Grey Gardens was fantastic, as was coco chanel

"Taking Chance" with Kevin Bacon – if you haven't seen it, it is a MUST! One of only a handful of movies to ever make me cry.

Can we just talk about Jon Cryers 30 layers of clothes and his vest being from Mr. Rogers closet?

Then there was that show with that good lookin' guy with the salt & pepper hair who's on the news now, can't remember the name of the show;) lol jk

Kevin and Kyra are so cute together!

I've never even heard of any of these mini-series. I didn't even know they still made them!

Guess I missed that one

ok... are Kevin and Kyra just the cutest couple?!!

My dog does not seem to understand the command "go make me some macaroni and cheese."

Jessica Lange camp here

Yey Shoreh! Amazing actress! She was fantastic in House of Sand and Fog too!

Shohreh was awesome in 24 too!

When will "best comedy" be given out?

Love me some Kevin Bacon

I loved Shohreh when she played the wife in the movie The House of Sand and Fog and on that season of 24.

Hi Jack... are you having fun?.. just turned it on.. Love Kyra and Kevin...Classy couple

I am making (vegan) macaroni and cheese as we type!

Sammy will learn one of these days, once she lays off the drink.

Oooo and Rowen and Martins Laugh In! Ok yep that was my fave show of all time lol ok I'm off the fave shows now promise...:D

did Drew Barrymore & Jessica Lange both just lose while I was thinking about food?

@Diane: I forgot about that. Hm, yeah, I can't remember his name either.

No-tie Survivor guy Jeff rocked it. Liked his rugged,a bit dressed down look. raaaaar

Stacy – - – me either! He always seems drunk...

@Kimberley

I haven't seen the original documentary (Gray Gardens)!
Thanks for the tip ... I will see!

What was that basketball show Ken Howard did in the 80's?

Wow, this comment thing is great. To "chat" with fellow TV/movie buffs is great. Thanks AC 360!

Golum (Andy Serkis) should have won. He was sufficiently creepy as Rigaud in Little Dorrit!

Jack-have your dog grab me something to drink while he's at it!

Cheers theme song and Party of Five...

I loved how Ken Howard sent shout outs to both Kanye and Joe Wilson. Equal time! Yeah!!

There it is....Ken Howard taking care of both items....mentioning a rapper and a congressman.

Jack- they are doing the supporting folks now then the leading ladies.. stay tuned!

Kevin and Kyra are a beautiful couple!

@jack – oh, Sammy understands just fine... it's her way of telling you to take a hike – or better still, "go make me a doggie snack" !!

@Jack

No, you're still good. Go make some food. I'm worried about what Sammy might put in it while you are otherwise occupied.

@joanne M – if I'm not mistaken, I think it was The White Shadow.

Taylor Swifts mom put the Kanye thing in it's proper place. It's not the end of the world or worse the loss of a child. She'll be okay!!!

@Gina: Haha. The Fairness Doctrine DOES live.

This show is in need of some Lady Gaga and her bird's nest dress.

White Shadow was the basketball show Ken Howard did.

So happy for Ken!!! Go Coach Reeves!!!

Yep gill....you"re right

Nph is doing great. Awesome show tonight. They really exceeded my expectations with the set. I never watch the Emmy Awards. Glad I tuned in to both the show and the blog. James, FL.

I feel your pain Jack, dogs really should know how to make the mac and cheese, it should come naturally. I have the same problem with my bird and turning off the lights once I get into the bed. Reading the written word (Kevin) Bacon really makes me hungry for bacon dang! @ Stacey I swear it's on the tip of my tongue lol

Yes, some Lady Gaga – but I preferred her Kermit cape.

NeNe's was great on the red carpet preshow on E!

"TV version of junk food" – exactly! (Reality TV)

i left Twitter to come here to AC360 and happy i did

I'm really loving the intros with old shows they were in! Probably the first TV show that they did!

Chandra Wilson just cracked me up...

24 hours is beyond my understanding!

Dang! was hoping for Kevin Kline for Cyrano...

Cool it's professor Moody from the Harry Potter movies!!

Yep, that's right White Shadows.

Loved Brendan Gleason as Churchill! he was amazing – so glad he won!

I'm a little disappointed in the relatively low level of crazy thus far. Don't they serve alcohol at this thing?

Jeff Probst suited up without tie or bowtie broke the penguin rule so elegantly. By contrast, Chevy Chase in white T-shirt n Armani looked a little like the Michelin Man ready to sell you a spare tire.

See all the empty seats??!! Where is everyone??!

They lost me at "Jennifer Love Hewitt."

@deb – yay, welcome aboard – General rule is: AC360 Jack Gray live blogs + Award Shows = a MUST...fun, fun, fun...

@ Jennifer NC omg it is Professor Moody from Harry Potter YAYA

One nice thing about the Arquettes – there is always one of them somewhere.

Hooray for Andrew Davies! Bringing sexy back to costume dramas!

That makes me nervous though I don't have any cats yet... will watch Greys Gardens just in case... Did you love Blake's dress?...WOW..

This show's just too classy for my taste. I'm with Stacy. What good's an awards show without some crazy?

@Jack: Oh c'mon. You know you loved Party of Five.

The Emmys are putting me to sleep. Let's talk about our favorite 90210 moments instead. I'd have to say Donna Martin Graduates or the time Kelly got roped into that cult.

and Love looks really good tonite, Jack

Another hooray for Little Dorrit with Walsh's win! Go Little Dorrit, the little film that could!

@Stacy. No booz served at Emmy's. Gotta wait for the true craziness watching the Golden Globes.

people with Irish accents are so hot!

Wow – have to watch Little Dorrit soon....sigh, too little time, too many shows to catch and find time to watch.

Yes! Dr. Horrible's back! I'm done yawning... (momentarily)

Donna Martin graduates is a CLASSIC! Good 'ole Brandon taking a stand with the Board!

Just a heads up, since I've been wanting to see this thanks to JackGray's mention: Grey Gardens is on HBO Wednesday morning. Good bless the DVR.

Jack, you forgot Kelly passing out because of diet pills!

@Jack: That time that Luke Perry furrowed his brow. Oh wait, that was every moment.

@ least sofa monkey sounds alot better than couch potato. A lot less starch...

that is 0-2 for Grey Gardens – i am not a happy camper @jack no no no 90210 LOL

Love the TV/Internet Skit – Nathan Fillion is very cute!

And the time Emily Valentine set the float on fire. Emily Valentine, you rascal.

what IS this!?

Nathan Fillion + NPH ....FUNNY !!

Dr Horrible! Captain Hammer! Moist and Penny! Let's just watch this for the rest of the night!

Jack,

remember when Kelly chose herself over both Brandon and Dylan and then goes to NYC hooks up with Colin and becomes a coke head? ahh the memoires

Okay, if I'm going to watch violence done to cute NPH, it at least needs to be funny.

There are just way too many shows to watch and so very little time. Isn't there paying jobs for people who just watch TV? Can't I get one of those gigs??

Aw, I wanted Weaver to get it. She gave an excellent performance in Prayers for Bobby.

Hurray Grey Gardens!

Jessica Lange deserved it! and Drew looked so happy for her. I love that!

Shirley MacLaine is not pleased. She didn't come back from a previous life to lose an Emmy.

What about when Emily Valentine slipped some XTC to Brandon–the same night Steve and Andrea went all over the town with "the egg"!

I wonder if popcorn would make this all more exciting?

@Huneysuckleroze: No booze?! Well that's no fun at all.

Just gave my dog a red seedless grape – he's never had one before and is trying to decide if he likes it.

Love that Jessica Lange won. She did a great job!

Jeff never wears a tie. Doesn't like them.

Grey Gardens looks interesting, I hardly recognized Drew!

In contrast, Drew looked like she was going to float up out of her seat since her co-star won!

Congrats for Jessica Lange winning but what's with Jessica Lange's eyebrows?

Jessica Lange is amazing in Grey Gardens!
She really deserved the prize!

Jessica Lange what a class act WOOT

Jessica is always so classy!

is jessica lange a cougar? her date looks very much her junior...

Fun fact about Jessica Lange: in addition to being a talented actress, she's also an accomplished still photographer. She had a book published in the past year, I think.

@Kelly: Covered in butter-flavored alcohol? Yes, that might work.

I hated when Brandon and Kelly stopped their wedding b/c they don't swing from Chandeliers.....What???? Could there have been a better reason. (And yes, I know they weren't being literal)

@Jack about Shirley McClain.... HILARIOUS!!!!

@jack i am now #739,223 follower of you on Twitter – along with Mr Cooper (of course) and the "King" (larry)

and so glad Jeff Probst didn't have his pooka shell necklace on! He did one year!

I didn't know Toni Collette and Justin Timberlake had accents.

@Heather: My dog acts like he wants a grape, but then he spits it out. #random

@Heather- grapes lke raisins can be fatal to dogs. Just found that out today, seriously.

Ken Howard's Basketball Show was The White Shadow.
Great Show in its time!!

@JackCNN- great comments

Think Jessica did have a lil cougar action–he did look young! Work it girl!

I know everyone loves Man Men, but I have my fingers crossed for a Dexter upset.

Is anyone else super excited for the season premiere of CSI on Thursday???

The Emmys really are slacking this year. Where is the entertainment?

Yay – Gray Gardens !!

Wow, the Fringe lady looked unrecognizable. Great color!

woohooo, Grey Gardens.... I'm putting a cape and kerchief on my dog Sammy in celebration.

I want to party with Keiffer Sutherland!

@Jack – LOL – post pictures!!

I'm sure Sammy looks stunning and wouldn't have it any other way!

I'm naming my next dog Little Edie.

Aw, he's super nervous.

90210: Do you realize Kelly slept with every guy except her step brother...at least she had some scruples...

Justin is from Memphis, but I don't hear an accent! & I think Toni is British!

Who does more commercial Voiceovers – Keifer Sutherland or Donald Sutherland.

I just got home ,I see all of you are having fun!

For those who love tv, this is a great night...

oh yeah "Grey Garden" is comming around now – WHEW – it is now
2-2 !!! I am feeling better now !!! Wooo Hooo

@Jack: The things Sammy has to put up with...

Is it a great accomplishment to win in award in a category with 2 nominees??

@Jack – don't forget Sammy' s stocking too – can't have the cape and kerchief without the stockings !!

when does the new season of Curb Your Enthusiasm start? hilarious show...

Third hooray for Little Dorrit! Dickens still compelling after 150 years!

Jack, if your Sammy is awake he's doing better than my Kimi–fluffball sleeping!

@Barbara: Now she's on some show called "What I Like About You." I don't know why I know that.

OK, guess I'm going to have to watch Little Dorrit and Grey Gardens. Can I find it on-line.

@renee...Toni Colette is Australian

One of my friends who's reading the live blog says to tell whoever posted about feeding dogs grapes that you shouldn't....dangerous for your dog.

I think it is Jessica's son–she has a 22 year old son. She's been dating Sam Shepherd for over 25 years.

Variety!! This has to get better now.

Hoping Jon Stewart gets something-he's so funny!

SNL Tina & Amy....so funny. Jon Stewart.....Craig Ferguson....my favorites

they went all out for "Class" tonight – everything looks great, acceptance speaches are awesome – stage is out of this world AWESOME and thank you jack, ac360 and all you peeps here for making it even more enjoyable

Loving the clips!!

Rod Blagojevich will be happy to see that he and his bangs got a spot in the variety show clip reel.

Wow, there has been some great variety shows this year.

Johnny Galecki....wasn't he Darlene's boyfriend on Roseanne?

I think so, too, Jodi!

that's the second Britney song they played tonight on the Emmys...disturbed me some

Bill Mar and Bernie Madoff. I couldn't tell who was who

You are correct about Johnny Jack.

If that's Jessica's son, she did good!

That was David from Rosanne?! I didn't even recognize him.

My one word summary of Emmys tonight- lame

the Europians are ahead tonight

The big bang theory is so funny!
I love Sheldon Cooper.... lol...

Must say, this blog is alot more fun than just watching the Emmys. Whose idea was this anyways..Kudos!

Jessica Lange, Congratulations! You Go Girl!

Joaquin Phoenix should win for best guest on a Talk Show.

"Curb" starts tonight, I think.

twas indeed, Jack!

I think the Emmy's are worried we might change the channel..."hey...donb't leave, we have Jimmy Fallon and Ricky Gervais is 6 mins..."

Rod Bla's hair cracks me up-reminds me of Gary Shandling

Good to know about the grapes. My dog won't eat them anyway. He did, however, once eat an entire pound of frozen ground beef WITH aluminum foil on it. And he was fine. I'm still amazed to this day.

@jack..yes, you're correct, he WAS Darlene's boyfriend on Roseanne..

This is always my favorite award because of the way they do the nominees- hilarious every year.

Yes, he played Darlene's boyfriend, David.

Between Daily Show & Colbert Report writers – how do you pick one over the other – Genius, both !!

@jack Roseanne my fav theme song – thx i was trying all this time to come up with just one – and yes Galecki was Dalene's boyfriend "David"

@Jack: Yes! That was Darlene's boyfriend David. Loved him on Roseanne.

I can always count on this category to announce the writers in a funny way.

@Paula – Yeah, John Stewart!

Jon Stewart – love, love, love!

Go TDS!

The Daily Show won..I am sure it was the Cramer interview that clynched it

Good thing I didn't plan on watching, from what I have read, they aren't that exciting.

And Jack....great idea to name your next dog..just make sure it isn't a little dog lol

Jon Stewart is funny!

Having a thing for nerdish funny guys who can right, I think I heart the entire writing team of The Daily Show.

@Barbara – I agree – way more fun than watching alone – and since it is on a Sunday night, my friends all have to work tomorrow....

and Sara Gilbert (Darlene) plays his sometimes girlfriend on 'Big Bang'

*WRITE not "right." This is why I don't have a nerdy funny guy of my own :::hanging head in shame:::

Not to worry folks – he rolled the grape around, spit it out and now my cat has a new toy!

Congrats to Jon Stewart and his team. Never miss a show. Nice that Stephen Colbert was the first to congratulate Jon. Colbert would have been my 2nd choice..

The big bang theory is so funny!
I love the Sheldon ... he is so nerd!

Ricky Gervais – now there's a comic GENIUS – sooo looking forward to seeing "The Invention of Lying"

Yes, Johnny Galecki was Darlene's boyfriend on Roseanne. And she appears in a few episodes of Big Bang Theory as his girlfriend!

@Honeysuckleroze I tried to find you a link to "Grey Gardens" but no luck – so swarrey – but ya got 2 c it !

Jon Stewart rocks!

I have to say, overall the show is boring, with little bits of brillance. Some of the acceptance speaches were great and some of the bits, like Dr Horrible are great as well. Not to mention Sarah Silverman's moustache.

Autotunes is NOT dead. LOL

Jimmy is too funny! Loved the fall!!

It was surprising to see that Kevin Kline didn't think Jimmy was funny?

I don't get HBO anymore...: ( I miss Curb Your Enthusiasm.One of the funniest shows ever made.

@Deb. Thanks. I'll watch it whenever I can find it.

I love Hugh Jackman!

Hard to tell if Jimmy Fallon is goofin' or is hurt....that was a hard hit.

An award for award shows? it's like the Morton salt can.

And why are all the comedy writers are dudes? Chicks can be funny too.. oh wait... they go on to write their own shows...

i have seen Justin Timberlake one too many times tonight...

There is an alarming lack of Goldfish crackers in my apartment right now.

So we're watching an award show where people are getting an award for their work on an awards show. This seems wrong somehow.

The background announcer is the best.

Loved the self depracating musicians!

Motherlover...the funniest best musical moment of ANY year EVER...where's Kanye????

@Stacy from NJ – totally agree – a bit of a snorefest right now – thank our lucky stars we have ....this blog to dish the dirt, spread the gossip, etc...sure breaks the boredom

was that guy wearing converse with his tux? tacky!

Hello Everyone! Enjoy the Emmy. Hello Jack, long time no read. Have fun!

Ricky Gervais is my favorite person alive...Jack Gray is second

Ricky Gervais is just HILARIOUS!!! 

so funny....Brit humor....Ricky is good.

Englishmen are hilarious

OMG, Ricky G is seriously HILARIOUS for real. Keepin it really REAL!!

Ricky G. is the most entertaining thing to happen in the last two hours,

Ricky Gervais... The office is very good!

For those that don't know, the Office just went into syndication recently. 5 Days a week people!

Yeah....JON!

LOL! He's funny!!

too bad for SNL...the best past season in a longtime..high hopes for this year

Good job Daily Show.. wish there could have been a tie with The Colbert Report though..

LOL to Jon's plug for Oscar song writers to write a song for him!

So this thing is still ANOTHER hour? Hmmm... I'm thinking it's time for Mad Men.

Is there anything wrong with jamming out to the instrumental version of "Got to Be Real" playing over this Emmy announcer I'm ignoring?

Despite the show's lacklusterness, NPH is getting a lot of love. Ellen gave him a shout out on Twitter not long ago. Now Jon Stewart.

They are venturing into boredom.

Yeah Daily Show – I always laugh out loud when I watch that show... does make me miss the year long presidential campaign...

A small part of the Internet known simply as 'The Nation' is imploding over the lack of Colbert wins now.

Oh Jack, that sucks!! I sooo love the Chedder Cheese ones! Oh wait, so does my cat lol

Stacy: Are you facebooking and youtubing while you're blogging and twittering LOL

I see House will be in the nut-house....interesting concept

Down side to being in Eastern Time Zone is prime time shows end at 11pm which is way way past my bedtime to be a "happy" functioning, not cranky member of society- crap, gotta get up for work at 5:20AM eastern standard time.

Hoping that HOUSE takes it home.......

OMG! LOST and TRUE BLOOD in the same category...

Seeing Friday Night Lights clips reminds me how mad I am it did not receive any noms!

Lost ?? yuk

Whaaat??? LL Cool J and Chris O'Donnell presenting – I don't get it...am I missing something?

@Joanne: I'm a mad multi-tasker, yo.

Woo Hoo! Cherry Jones wins! Rock on!

never saw 24 and really don't want to...

YEAH Cherry Jones. She makes a fab president on 24. Was awesome as mother to Matt Damon's character in Ocean's Twelve. Love her accent.

That Emerson guy seemed a little weird...

@ Gayle McCauley Malden, Mass.

I also wanted HOUSE!

Tribute time

@Joanne M hahaha i think Stacy is mulit-tasking !
@ Honeysuckleroze sweet dreams and beautiful week ahead

We lost a ton of great character actors this year.

So moving

it's always so sad to see the sheer number of stars who leave us each year.

Wow... amazing group of people... sadness...

Am I the only one slightly torn about clapping for the people who passed?

Poignant tribute to those who passed. On another note, is Sarah McLachlan associated with anything not terribly depressing? First that homeless animal commercial, now this?

My goodness, we certainly lost some wonderfully talented people this year.

OMG! I am crying like a baby. We lost so many great ones this year. Sarah's song makes me blubber like a baby anyway but that took it all the way!

Well, now I'm depressed.

Everytime Sarah Mclachlan sings this song I always think of JFK jr. his wife Carolyn and her sister Lauren.

Nice tribute to the many the world has lost this year.

We did lose a lot of people in the last year.I practically never make it through those segments without tearing up a bit, but that was harder than most. Recently, the loss of MJ, my favorite musical artist of all time and a good soul. But Michael Crichton was the reason I'm doing what I'm doing today, a true personal inspiration. It's sad to think I won't ever get to meet and thank him.

thoes "tributses" and the song just humbled me so much -sigh-

I think Sara McLaughlin should be contracted to sing that every year

Oh, my! I cannot believe all of those great people left us in one year. Wow!!

Did I miss John Hughes name in In Memoriam tribute?

Is it Don Draper time yet ??

Way to go Cherry Jones. BTW her accent comes from Paris, TN.

they shouldn't bury the guest spots for drama/comedy in the creative arts emmys...those are popular categories...people want to see those.

Wow- lots of important people died this year. What will Andy Rooney do without Walter Kronkite, Don Hewitt and Dominique Dunne. Sad times for American media.

How did no men get nominated for Law and Order SVU? Wait... apparently most special victims are female.

as usual, Ellen Burstyn and I are wearing the same outfit.

OMG, I can't believe its Michael J Fox. He's awesome. He's so... 80's!!

"If you're having trouble with someone on the set, learn how to tell them to go to hell in such a way that they'll want to go." Ed Holcomb

I think I'm going to frame this!

Everytime I see Ellen B. I think of the Exorcist!!

I think the song came (a little) )before the homeless animal commercial

Alex P. Keaton!!! Who doesn't love Family Ties.

michael J. Fox is amazing!

John Hughes work was in film, not television

@Isabel..I know you love HOUSE too! Love Hugh Laurie! God bless Michael J. Fox.....

@Kelly: I know! Right? Excellent advice that can be applied to many aspects of life.

@Ana Michel J Fox looks better than i have seen him in a looooong time

@Jack LOLOLOLZ@ you wearing the same outfit as Ellen Burstyn hahahahaha

Simon Baker always wears the coolest glasses!

I didn't see John Hughes either?!! Hmmm... I hope they did not make that bludder, he was one of the best!

amazing jack. . .so many joining the blog with u. .. love it. . am not watcihing yet. .maybe on the replay. . .busy with ym. . hahahaha. .take care. . .

I think Simon Baker and I have the same eyeglass frames. I'm often mistaken for him....on opposite day.

So now glasses r in?

Totally agree about the guest spots for comedy and drama Jack.

Rod Blagojevic makes me think if horrible missteps involving a pruner.

Glenn Close is solid. She always seems to do a good job.

@Jack, show us a pic with your glasses on ;')

love Sally Field from the days of Steel Magnolias and Forrest Gump, but she's always crying

Shhh ... Simon Baker can read what you're thinking ... he is the mentalist ... of course.

Thank god no-one in the theatre has a bunny

Glenn Colde is a very classy lady!

Hughes did work on "Delta House" a TV series in the last 70's as a writer.

the eyeglass frames that Simon Baker and I both have. well, he can pull them off....I only wear them inside my apartment because they make me look like Henry Kissinger.

I CAN spell- I just can't type – I meant Glenn Close

I'm almost positive I saw Glenn Close in Ireland once.. she said hi.

We have very little time left for a drunken outburst. Come on, celebs. Let's get crackin'!

Sue- Good call.. I agree!

I really wanted Elizabeth to win for Peggy, but who can beat Glenn Close? But it's okay, this season of Mad Men is even better so there's always next year's awards.

@jackgraycnn Do you at least get a feeling of gravitas from them? Perhaps others would find you very important if you wore them outdoors. I mean... not that the dog's respect isn't important... but...

I am not sure who Simon looks like in his glasses but it's not himself.

@jamie – to me Sally Field seems to keep taking on identical character roles over and over again.

I can't remember her taking on a role that differs from her current Brothers/Sister's character (aka Steel Magnolias, Forrest Gump)..for a LONG time

@stacy There obviously needs to be some sort of rapper reality show to introduce the Kanya wannabe element to the Emmys. LOL

@jack..about you looking like Simon Baker....No...you're alot cuter with a terrific sense of humor..Keep it up!

**KANYE I hate that I can't type and think at the same time. LOL

Clock is winding down to hear those magic words: "Ladies and gentlemen, Loni Anderson."

i have been a Big fan of Glen Close since 'The World According to Garp' and even bigger in "The Big Chill" and all her other films and guest spots on TV – BRAVO Mz Close !!

@ Katherine, Atlanta, Ga hahahaha @ shhh Simon Baker "can read what we you're thinking"

@newsjunkie365.....you're funny!!Nice to see you here!!

The Breakfast Club was my favorite movie back in the day.

Onlly three awards left – if I don't get a chance later, I want to say thanks to all of you for keeping me company during this show. It has been fun to share with you. Thanks to Jack & CNN!

House, House, House, House, House!!!

Another person who doesn't look like themselves in their glasses..what is up with that tonight?

ok – so it's official with Dana....glasses are sooo IN.

Will Hugh Laurie EVER win? He deserves it : (

.... Portraying a car crash victim? What an intro ...

I don't even know who that is. Was hoping Michael C. Hall would take the prize.

Neither Simon Baker nor his glasses looked happy when the winner was announced.

I like the glasses... do they scare Sammy?? If not, you should wear them!!
Stacy- Whoever you are, You're hilarious!

I agree, @Jack, did you also buy your glasses from the same store as Delanay and Baker?

Maybe I should start watching Breaking Bad???? Is it any good?

.. I don't think the metalist saw that coming ...

Yes Jack .. Simon had that fake smile plastered tight on his face when BCs name was read.

No Don Draper – I'm soooo disappointed – John Hamm is just so good

Bob Newhart is a comedy genius...nice to see him there.

Haven't even heard of Breaking Bad! Must watch soon.

Simon Baker has nothing on Jack Gray

Bob Newhart is cute!

Newhart rocks- then and now.

30 Rock! Much deserved....a brilliantly funny show.

30 Rock ... yesssssss

Woo! Not unexpected. Well deserved. 30 Rock is a great show.

30 Rock – quel surprise.....

Yay!! 30 Rock won, they deserve it!!

30 Rock ... much deserved!

How tall is the dude in the very back???? Wow!

Thanks for 'Hosting' the blog Jack!

OK fire the camera man or director who missed the kiss with Tina Fey and Bob Newhart

@ Mimi I feel the same way about the Breakfast Club (and Footlose) they just stay with me and i can watch them over & over

Bob Newhart..his shows? Did he just have the 2, both named The Bob Newhart Show? One he was a psychiatrist & the other he owned a B&B in Vermont?

Good night Jack!
Thank you for for this plus live blog ... It was fun!

Good night everyone ... we see the next one!

Okay, just in case I have any sway in the universe: c'mon Dexter!

If there is an award for best TV cartoon character it would be a toss up between Speedy Gonzales or Ninja Joe.

Jack you've been a great master of ceremonies! See ya on Twitter

trying to expalin 30 rock to my mother is like trying to explain math to a Comm major-just doesn't work out

Sigourney Weaver is always the closer

It's 8pm Pacific time..THE EMMYS ARE ON! THE EMMYS ARE ON!

Thanks Jack and all others for the entertainment.

I loved the hair Sigourney Weaver ... is the same as mine!

Sorry, Stacy. There's always next year.

Hurray for Mad Men!!!!!!

Mad Men! A great, sexy show! Congrats! Love it!!

Why not HOUSE?
I'm sad.... very sad! Lol...

Great live blog as always, Jack. Goodnight all.

Well this was fun and different than the news that we all love so much! Goodnight everyone .Peace to all of you and yours.No HOUSE : (

Someday I'm going to have to watch this show. All I hear about is Mad Men.

MAD MEN. Genius because of its subtleties. Popular b/c of it's blatant truthfulness. Brilliant.

Good night Jack!
Thank you for for this plus live blog … It was fun!

Good night everyone … we see the next one!

@Chris: Yeah. Guess Dexter will just have to keep killing people. See what you've done, Emmy!

Thx AC360 *Jack Gray* Was much better and a ton more fun being here on th blog – thx to all of you for being great company – Peace Out

Neil Patrick Harris is brilliant. Love TV. Love the Emmy's. Great times.

Yay – MAD MEN !!! – Great way to close it out.

Thanks to all for the fun blogging – sure helped with the boredom factor through the 3+hrs.

And a big thanks to the mighty Jack Gray, for hosting yet another great event !

See you all at the next one.

Thanks everyone....I enjoyed the watching the show with you...even it was one of the boring awards shows in recent memories. Have a good night.

Thanks for the BLOG!

Thanks for hosting Jack- it's been fun. Keep the great tweets and CNN blogs coming!

Thanks for the fun, Jack! Have a good one. And if you still haven't gotten food, go get some!

Gonna go & watch the show now (Pacific time, remember?) Thanks to everyone who participated. Enjoyed every minute. Jack, you're great..loved reading & blogging. Have to do it again, sometime. Love Ya

Bye, all!

Thanks for hosting us, Jack! It's been fun everybody. I'll see some of you on Twitter. But for now, there's a fajita with my name on it.

I need to see this Mad Men show... Jack, you're hilarious as always. I have an Oscar party every year... just for the girls but we will get on your blog if you have one... You should have one!!!!

I love everything about 30 Rock. I opened up a page of random 30 Rock quotes in class the other night and had to close it down because I almost started laughing out loud. Bummed about the Tina Fey loss, but she's a gracious winner and loser... not that I needed another reason to love her!

unrelated sidebar: I miss your random blogs, Jack! I'll take it in large doses or small doses, but just know that they really help getting through the work day
