So, as many of you know CBS was taken over for 3 hours by the Emmy Awards last night. Now usually I am waaay to busy to be able to watch but, due to the circumstances this year I actually could watch.
Neil Patrick Harris was the host for the evening. He began the show with some of the past hosts and it was great. The first speech of the night was possibly the best of the evening by being less then 30 seconds long. Merritt Weaver FTW with "Thank you so much, umm I gotta go bye". I laughed so hard.
The night was filled with lots of remembrance speeches and made my heart sad that so many great actors have died this year. With speakers like Micheal J. Fox, Robin Williams and Jane Lynch you know we paid attention.
Then came the Number in the Middle of the Show. Yes, that was the name of it. With Cameos from Nathan Fillion and Sarah Silverman. Best Line goes to "You can't spell Cameo without ME". It was a great pick me up from the tedium.
This year marks the first time that Choreography was given an award on air. They did this awesome number that was in one word "FANTASTIC"! I loved it and I believe it should become a tradition.
The night was filled with a bunch of the norm for award shows. Speeches that went way to long and awards that probably didn't go to the best choice but, alas that is the way with these things. Some decent performances by both Elton John and Carrie Underwood. I was actually fairly unimpressed with the rest of it. I think I shall just watch the highlights next year.
Tasha
