Three deserving actors won emmy's and one is from LOST
Michael Emerson who plays Ben Linus

Michael J. Fox for his guest appearance which totally rocked on Rescue Me.

Bryan Cranston in Breaking Bad.


AND..of course The Daily Show.


Not that I really care. I did not watch any of it.

1. Michael Emerson created one of the greatest villians in TV history
a HIGHLY complex antagonist that could make you sympathize with him while he was stabbing you in the back.

3. I see Alec Baldwin won.
:bounce:

That 30 Rock ep this past season where he's "praying" in church must have made the God of Emmy's smile.

4. I've only watched that show once.
I don't know why I don't watch it more. I'm just not into tv as much as I was. LOST and sometimes Rescue ME but other than that, I'm doing homework or posting here.

I miss Boston Legal. :cry:

7. That's awesome.
I always thought Michael Emerson deserved an Emmy, and now he has one. In playing Ben Linus, he arguably has done the best acting job of anyone currently on network TV.

9. That guy has range.
He can either be hysterically funny or frighteningly scary.

10. I know
I loved him in Malcolm, and was surprised to see him as a serious actor when I saw an episode of Breaking Bad. Very versatile.

11. So Jim Parsons didn't win?
:cry:

He's the best actor on television since Jean Stapleton, if not Christina Applegate... Rather better, in fact. It's NEVER easy to portray a "simplistic" person of any sort... playing an uber-complex person is far more difficult. Heck, the whole cast of "The Big Bang Theory" deserves awards - right down to the timing, everything is perfect...

16. I'm just excited that "Grey Gardens" did so well - that movie RAWKED!!!
Although it was a shame that Drew didn't win but she lost out to Jessica.

17. Don't watch any of those shows.
So I can't say if I think they deserved it or not.
Don't really watch a lot of primetime TV. I work second shift. When I do watch, it's usually only the CSI shows, Cold Case, etc...
