Emmy's Live Blog!


Here's the deal.

We will be blogging live as the Emmy's are broadcast, starting around 6:45ish to include some of the E! Red Carpet show. We'll put the winners up as it happens too!

Keep Refreshing Throughout The Night!

8:08 P [KP] First award presented by Ray Romano. Who apparently said bad words as the tv screen froze. He's doing stand up and I don't know why. Just do the award.

*Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series*

Award goes to Jeremy Piven from Entourage. Good call. He makes that show. He called it an embarassment of riches to have that role. Nice short speech with love to his Dad.

8:14PM - America Ferrera and Vanessa Williams presenting the award for...

* Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series *

The Emmy goes to Terry O'Quinn from LOST. WOW! I never saw that one coming. First win for Terry, his second nomination. Thanked his wife right away. That's a sparkly tie he's rocking right there. He's comparing running around the woods to being on other shows. Very funny. The music is starting to play and Terry wraps it up quickly.

8:22 PM - Seacrest paying tribute to the actresses in the house. He's not funny. And made a Paula joke she didn't hear. Tina Fey and Julia Louis Dreyfus here to present the award for...

* Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy *

The Emmy award goes to Jaime Pressly from My Name is Earl. Of course I was rooting for Jenna, but she'll get nominated again. She seems so humble. By the way, yes this is the girl from "Not Another Teen Movie". TEARS! Love it when they cry.

8:26PM - Kyle Chandler and Katherine Heigl (who the announcer mispronounced her name) present the award for:

The Emmy winner is Thomas Hayden Church for "Broken Trail". It's his first Emmy nom and win! I like him! Nice job!
