Jack Gray
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.

Jon Stewart is funny!
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
The Daily Show won..I am sure it was the Cramer interview that clynched it
Go TDS!
Jon Stewart – love, love, love!
@Paula – Yeah, John Stewart!
I can always count on this category to announce the writers in a funny way.
@Jack: Yes! That was Darlene's boyfriend David. Loved him on Roseanne.
@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"
Between Daily Show & Colbert Report writers – how do you pick one over the other – Genius, both !!
Yes, he played Darlene's boyfriend, David.
This is always my favorite award because of the way they do the nominees- hilarious every year.
@jack..yes, you're correct, he WAS Darlene's boyfriend on Roseanne..
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.
Rod Bla's hair cracks me up-reminds me of Gary Shandling
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..."
twas indeed, Jack!
"Curb" starts tonight, I think.
Joaquin Phoenix should win for best guest on a Talk Show.
Jessica Lange, Congratulations! You Go Girl!
Must say, this blog is alot more fun than just watching the Emmys. Whose idea was this anyways..Kudos!
The big bang theory is so funny!
I love Sheldon Cooper.... lol...
the Europians are ahead tonight
My one word summary of Emmys tonight- lame
That was David from Rosanne?! I didn't even recognize him.
If that's Jessica's son, she did good!
You are correct about Johnny Jack.
Bill Mar and Bernie Madoff. I couldn't tell who was who
that's the second Britney song they played tonight on the Emmys...disturbed me some
I think so, too, Jodi!
Johnny Galecki....wasn't he Darlene's boyfriend on Roseanne?
Wow, there has been some great variety shows this year.
Rod Blagojevich will be happy to see that he and his bangs got a spot in the variety show clip reel.
Loving the clips!!
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
SNL Tina & Amy....so funny. Jon Stewart.....Craig Ferguson....my favorites
Hoping Jon Stewart gets something-he's so funny!
Variety!! This has to get better now.
I think it is Jessica's son–she has a 22 year old son. She's been dating Sam Shepherd for over 25 years.
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.
@renee...Toni Colette is Australian
OK, guess I'm going to have to watch Little Dorrit and Grey Gardens. Can I find it on-line.
@Barbara: Now she's on some show called "What I Like About You." I don't know why I know that.
Jack, if your Sammy is awake he's doing better than my Kimi–fluffball sleeping!
Third hooray for Little Dorrit! Dickens still compelling after 150 years!
when does the new season of Curb Your Enthusiasm start? hilarious show...
@Jack – don't forget Sammy' s stocking too – can't have the cape and kerchief without the stockings !!
Is it a great accomplishment to win in award in a category with 2 nominees??
@Jack: The things Sammy has to put up with...
oh yeah "Grey Garden" is comming around now – WHEW – it is now
2-2 !!! I am feeling better now !!! Wooo Hooo
