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.

For those who love tv, this is a great night...
I just got home ,I see all of you are having fun!
Who does more commercial Voiceovers – Keifer Sutherland or Donald Sutherland.
Justin is from Memphis, but I don't hear an accent! & I think Toni is British!
90210: Do you realize Kelly slept with every guy except her step brother...at least she had some scruples...
Aw, he's super nervous.
I'm naming my next dog Little Edie.
I'm sure Sammy looks stunning and wouldn't have it any other way!
@Jack – LOL – post pictures!!
I want to party with Keiffer Sutherland!
woohooo, Grey Gardens.... I'm putting a cape and kerchief on my dog Sammy in celebration.
Wow, the Fringe lady looked unrecognizable. Great color!
Yay – Gray Gardens !!
The Emmys really are slacking this year. Where is the entertainment?
Is anyone else super excited for the season premiere of CSI on Thursday???
I know everyone loves Man Men, but I have my fingers crossed for a Dexter upset.
Think Jessica did have a lil cougar action–he did look young! Work it girl!
@JackCNN- great comments
Ken Howard's Basketball Show was The White Shadow.
Great Show in its time!!
@Heather- grapes lke raisins can be fatal to dogs. Just found that out today, seriously.
@Heather: My dog acts like he wants a grape, but then he spits it out. #random
I didn't know Toni Collette and Justin Timberlake had accents.
and so glad Jeff Probst didn't have his pooka shell necklace on! He did one year!
@jack i am now #739,223 follower of you on Twitter – along with Mr Cooper (of course) and the "King" (larry) 🙂
@Jack about Shirley McClain.... HILARIOUS!!!!
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)
@Kelly: Covered in butter-flavored alcohol? Yes, that might work.
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.
is jessica lange a cougar? her date looks very much her junior...
Jessica is always so classy!
Jessica Lange what a class act WOOT
Jessica Lange is amazing in Grey Gardens!
She really deserved the prize!
Congrats for Jessica Lange winning but what's with Jessica Lange's eyebrows?
In contrast, Drew looked like she was going to float up out of her seat since her co-star won!
Grey Gardens looks interesting, I hardly recognized Drew!
Jeff never wears a tie. Doesn't like them.
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!
@Huneysuckleroze: No booze?! Well that's no fun at all.
I wonder if popcorn would make this all more exciting?
What about when Emily Valentine slipped some XTC to Brandon–the same night Steve and Andrea went all over the town with "the egg"!
Shirley MacLaine is not pleased. She didn't come back from a previous life to lose an Emmy.
Jessica Lange deserved it! and Drew looked so happy for her. I love that!
Hurray Grey Gardens!
Aw, I wanted Weaver to get it. She gave an excellent performance in Prayers for Bobby.
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??
Okay, if I'm going to watch violence done to cute NPH, it at least needs to be funny.
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
Dr Horrible! Captain Hammer! Moist and Penny! Let's just watch this for the rest of the night!
Nathan Fillion + NPH ....FUNNY !!
what IS this!?
