Emmy wrap up!

Opening of the show

So, the Emmy's were on Sunday night & I of course tuned in for them & though I don't really care for Jimmy Fallon I didn't really have much of a choice since he was the host but luckily he wasn't really on the show much & when he was he was just doing the same damn thing...either singing or making a bad joke.  That's all beside the point though, the awards are what the show is all about & I have to say that I was very happy with the outcome of the majority of the awards.  Below I've posted the same list I posted before the Emmy's & my predictions are in yellow & winners in teal...those that have no yellow are those I predicted accurately.

Drama Series: "Breaking Bad," AMC; "Dexter," Showtime; "The Good Wife," CBS; "Lost," ABC; "True Blood," HBO; "Mad Men," AMC.

 

Comedy Series: "Curb Your Enthusiasm," HBO; "Glee," Fox; "Modern Family," ABC; "The Office," NBC; "Nurse Jackie," Showtime; "30 Rock," NBC.

 Actor, Drama Series: Bryan Cranston, "Breaking Bad," AMC; Michael C. Hall, "Dexter," Showtime; Kyle Chandler, "Friday Night Lights," DirecTV; Hugh Laurie, "House," Fox; Matthew Fox, "Lost," ABC; Jon Hamm, "Mad Men," AMC.

Actress, Drama Series: Kyra Sedgwick, "The Closer," TNT; Glenn Close, "Damages," FX; Connie Britton, "Friday Night Lights," DirecTV; Julianna Margulies, "The Good Wife," CBS; Mariska Hargitay, "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit," NBC; January Jones, "Mad Men," AMC.  

Actor, Comedy Series: Jim Parsons, "The Big Bang Theory," CBS; Larry David, "Curb Your Enthusiasm," HBO; Matthew Morrison, "Glee," Fox; Tony Shalhoub, "Monk," USA; Steve Carell, "The Office," NBC; Alec Baldwin, "30 Rock," NBC.

Actress, Comedy Series: Lea Michele, "Glee," Fox; Julia Louis-Dreyfus, "The New Adventures of Old Christine," CBS; Edie Falco, "Nurse Jackie," Showtime; Amy Poehler, "Parks and Recreation," NBC; Tina Fey, "30 Rock," NBC; Toni Collette, "United States of Tara," Showtime.

Personally I did think it was pretty cool that Kyra Sedgwick won for her category as she has yet to win & her show has been on for like 5 seasons.  Edie Falco winning for Nurse Jackie made me so very happy because I just love that show & I love her in it but I thought for sure she would get beat out by Toni Collette.  It's not posted here but John Lithgow won for best supporting actor for Dexter which I thought was awesome, I had predicted that someone from Lost would win but Lithgow played such an awesome character last season I really wanted him to take it home.  The same goes for Jane Lynch, I wanted her to win but thought that Sofia Vergara would but was happily surprised to see Sue Sylvester nab that trophy.  The biggest shock of the night was Top Chef winning for best reality competition show which freaking ruled!  For the first time in 7 years Amazing Race didn't win this category, way to go Top Chef!  I would also like to give props to the academy for not giving much of anything to Lost...that show sucked, granted I only watched the first episode but that was all I needed to know that it wouldn't be worth my time.  The full list of nominees & winners can be found here.
