The 2010 Prime Time Emmy Awards
Some brief thoughts the day after. I would say this was the best Emmy's ever for opening and for keeping the show moving. Jimmy Fallon was actually funny and pulled off the best opening for an Emmy broadcast.
I wasn't too unhappy with the winners, the comedy catagories were full of nominees that I couldnt not argue with and only Alec Baldwin and Tony Shaloub winning would have put a damper on the show for me. Jim Parsons winning for Best Lead Actor in a comedy was tremendous and he deserved it and the show should have been nominated for best Comedy but you take the victories where you find them.
It was nice to see the classy and funny Betty White enjoying the attention and making everyone realize this isnt life and death, just another awards show.
Edie Falco I didnt understand but I have never watched Nurse Jackie but I really dont think that fits the comedy role, but I wont argue because the rest of the night was enjoyable.
Now the highlight of the show after the opening was the GREAT comedy skit by the cast of "Modern Family"
This was just fantastic and gave those who havent seen the show just how good "Modern Family" really is. Wednesdays at 9pm by the way.
Things really bogged down in the awards for mini series and made for tv movies. The big winner was the HBO movie Temple Grandin.
Not only was it mostly movies and mini series that no one watched but when the winners went to thanking everyone it seemed they thanked more people than watched the movie.
My personal opinion is that the networks have missed the boat with movies and miniseries due to cost cutting and bypassing shows like MadMen and Breaking Bad they have given life to cable taking home the big awards. One last point about this made for tv movie awards, Al Pacino is a train wreck! He seemed more out of it than usual and seemed to have no idea what was going on around him. I never thought I would see Jack Kevorkian as a guest of someone at any function let alone the Emmy awards.
Overall it was a great show and didnt lack for energy (until the near the end) and really seemed to have fun and be able to laugh at themselves. Kudos to the writers and directors and everyone involved to make this a memorable show.
