AC360° Writer/Producer
Good evening and welcome to the AC360° Emmy Awards Live Blog. The winners, the losers, possible Kanye West interruptions…we’ve got your running commentary. And sure, considering all that’s going on in the world, the Emmys aren’t hugely important. But if you’re looking to get away from the bleak news-of-the-day for a few hours, then this blog is the place for you.
As for my qualifications to moderate this blog, well, I once saw Angela Lansbury in the grocery store.
We should point out that we’re not encouraging you to change the channel from CNN, but if you’re going to watch the Emmy Awards anyway, you might as well watch them with us.
And even if you’re not watching them, we think you’ll still enjoy the live blog. I’ll be with you from 8:00pm Eastern Time until the Emmys finish airing.
If you would like to participate in our Live Blog (and we hope you do) please follow our rules.
Here are some of them:
1) Please keep your comments short
2) Don’t write in ALL CAPS (we don’t like screaming)
3) Use your real name
Please note that due to volume we may not be able to post all comments.

Pushing Daisies was one of the best shows on tv...so sad it went off the air...love Kristen Chenowerth
I don't think its fair those of us on the West Coast have to wait to see it!
Aw, I like Kristen. She's like this tiny package of cuteness.
OH OH Vanessa didn't get the memo?
Keep the Kanye jokes comin....he deserves it!
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.
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.
LOL, Vannessa is a stick in the mud!
Yea! Kristen! WTG!
Loved all the ladies with the glasses.
What was up with stupid classes on womens category
Yes, I love an upset!!!!
Favorite Theme Song: The Office!
Should I be sad the only nominees I recognize are from SNL?
So, how many Kanye jokes will there be? One so far...
Hi Anderson !
Wishing the red carpet turn to green cleanly !
I love you !
An !
Favorite TV Theme Song - For me a tie between "Cheers" and maybe "The Beverly Hillbillys"
Hamm was great on 30 Rock.
Can we expect some fun interruptions? I'll put $5 on it!
Okay, a Kanye outburst would be too obvious, but anyone think we might get a "you lie!"?
Why do I have to wait until 7 pm to see it in AZ?
Yes, Stacy. GI theme was great.
But if we are speaking of true Theme songs i must say Gilligan's Island was one of them
Man, I hope Jim Parsons wins for Big Bang Theory! I love that show!!
6 minutes in and we get a kayne joke.
Ha. Can't say I remember the theme song to Mr. Belvedere.
Hehe, I love NPH! I think he's a great choice to host the Emmy's.
Good evening, everyone! And thanks so much for hosting a chat, Jack!
Unfortunately I missed the first number. Was it good?
The best TV theme song? "The Facts of Life"! Well, tied with "The Greatest American Hero"!
One of my favorite themes was actually from Veronica Mars
Favorite Theme Show, hmmm, Gilligan's island comes to mind.
Love Neil Patrick's tux!
Cheers & friends theme songs r classics
Hey Jack, looking forward to spending Emmy night with you and fellow bloggers. I just love Leon Patrick Harris. ~ L.C.
Neil's been in a few Broadway shows. He can sing the whole show!
I hate the Emmys, but I love Jack Gray so I am here 🙂
NPH is right...it's sad that there aren't TV theme songs anymore. Family Ties, Mr. Belvedere, Dallas, Dynasty...what's your favorite?
Cool
Woo Hoo! Here's hoping for a Kayne West/Elaine Stritch Cage Match!
I will be totally disappointed if we don't get a Kanye type outburst from Stephen Colbert or Jon Stewart tonight : )
I love NPH! I'm following him on twitter now!
Hi everyone. Good opening number.
So glad NPH is hosting! He is totally awesome!
Woo wait to go Neil! great
Hey Jack!
Cant wait to hear your witty commentary! Love ya!
Hello Jack!
Hello everyone!!!!
Funny opening good for him
hi Jack!
Neil Patrick Harris is adorable!this should be fun
Great opening number by NPH!
Lookin forward to Jack hosting the blog! Maybe next year he'll be Emmy host!
Guess it's a host requirement to sing!
Hi everyone...thanks for joining me tonight. Let's hope Kanye doesn't have an outburst during Neil Patrick Harris' opening number.
