Jimmy Fallon stole the show and Stephen Colbert’s award at last year’s Emmys, but this year the Outstanding Variety Talk Series category was all about Jon Stewart, who accepted his last Variety Emmy for “The Daily Show.” The Emmys split the Variety category into Variety Sketch (winner “Inside Amy Schumer“) and Variety Talk this year, […]
Poor Jerry/Garry/Larry/Terry! The oft-ridiculed “Parks and Recreation” character was stabbed in the chest with an Emmy statuette during a taped bit at Sunday’s awards, because some people never can win. Andy Samberg parodied the “I’d like to buy the world a Coke” commercial that capped off the final season of “Mad Men.” The host assumed […]
Natasha Lyonne and Fred Armisen attended the Emmy Awards on Sunday night looking like a couple of kids in love. The actors arrived on the red carpet together, seemingly putting all the relationship rumors they’ve sparked over the years to rest. If this isn’t confirmation of their status, we don’t know what is. Just look […]
The 2015 Emmys had a video presentation of all the popular shows that ended this year. This video presentation made the insane decision to show the final scenes of many of these shows, including “Mad Men,” “Glee,” “The Newsroom,” “Nurse Jackie,” “Boardwalk Empire,” “Sons of Anarchy” and “Justified.” Watch the video and you’ll know which […]
The Emmys are all about honoring a lot of white men excellence in television. On Sunday night, that meant lots of awards for “Olive Kitteridge” and also several insults made at the expense of the hot garbage that was “True Detective” Season 2. “We also said goodbye to ‘True Detective,’” Andy Samberg said early in […]
Once again, Amy Poehler didn’t win Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series at the 2015 Emmy Awards on Sunday evening — that honor went to Julia Louis-Dreyfus for the fourth straight year — but she certainly won the category in another way. Amy Poehler wins anyway. pic.twitter.com/i12mPU9AlK — Dave Itzkoff (@ditzkoff) September 21, 2015 […]
Jon Hamm won the Emmy for Outstanding Acting in a Drama Series Sunday night for his role in “Mad Men.” This is the first Emmy win for Hamm, who was previously nominated 7 times for his work as Don Draper. “There has been a terrible mistake, clearly.” Hamm said in his acceptance speech. “This is […]
Viola Davis won the Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for her lead role as Annalise Keating on “How to Get Away with Murder” at the 67th annual ceremony Sunday night. “In my dreams, I see a line,” she said, quoting Harriet Tubman. “Over that line, I see green fields and lovely […]
Ladies and gentlemen, your new host … John Oliver presented the Emmy for Outstanding Directing for a Limited Series, Movie or a Dramatic Special on Sunday night, which doesn’t sound too exciting until you actually watch it. Oliver basically used his time to call out “Jeopardy” and Alex Trebek. (As if the recent Turd Ferguson […]
“Veep” nabbed Outstanding Comedy Series at Sunday’s Emmys, breaking the five-time “Modern Family” winning streak. The celebrated HBO series won for its fourth season. Had “Modern Family” prevailed, it would have topped the record it shares with “Frasier” as the category’s most-honored show. “Veep” also bested “Louie,” “Parks and Recreation,” “Silicon Valley,” “Transparent” and “Unbreakable […]
