The Emmy Awards

Worst Emmy awards telecast ever. When Jimmy Kimmel gives you needed and accurate comedic criticism, you know you're in trouble.

The Academy actually did a good job with the voting this year. To wit:
  1. 30 Rock
  2. Tina Fey for writing and acting
  3. Alec Baldwin
  4. The Daily Show with Jon Stewart
  5. The Colbert Report for Writing
  6. Bryan Cranston for Breaking Bad
  7. Mad Men for writing and best show
  8. Don Rickles

Of course, no mention of the Emmys can be made without the obligatory, they screwed over The Wire note, but with that glaring omission, a good job overall.

Submitted for your consideration:

Next year's hosts: Alec Baldwin and Tina Fey

Next year's presenter for something, anything: Christina Hendricks



There's your best costume design right there.

Perhaps I am naive, but I just cannot picture dtb engaging in socking.

And, like SAM, I read the Randian sock as being a drive-by visit from Penske, NTTAWWT.

Beautiful Lawyers. (Theoretically.)

Boston area lawyers pose for calendar, proceeds to charity. The calendar isn't yet available online, but the article suggests that noone's naked. Given that, I'm not sure how they think anyone other than the attorneys and their moms will buy the damned things.

Aren't the firms going to be on the hook for at least a few dozen copies each? Of course, it's always going to be March at Ropes & Gray.

I have nothing to add to whether DTB would sock or not sock, but if she were to sock (hypothetically speaking), I don't think she could bring herself to post something with typos in it.
