So here are my thoughts. -There are TONES of people who should have one...there are even more people who really DESERVED to be nominated. -And from what I have read on various websites a lot of people argree with me. (on the particular people specifically)
These people include,
- Lauren Graham - I mean come on already! Although I must admit season 7 was not the best season...Lauren did a great job as usual!
- Maura Tierney - I'd forgotten about her myself till I was reading other people's comments. She has been really great through the last few seasons of ER. -Everyone has forgotten ER even exists. Pitty.
- Matthew Perry - I don't even know what to say about Matty. He just rocks!
- Ellen Pompeo - okay she was in the top 10...but thats still not top 5. Thoughout season 3 I was able to not HATE Meredith anymore..infact now I like her a lot! Ellen was great in this season.
- Kate Walsh - okay I'm not saying she has to WIN, but maybe next year now that she has her own show she might stand a chance.
- Dave Annabele - He was great in the first season of B&S!
- I would say Jill Hennessy..but I don't know if season 6 was as good as the others.
-There are probably a million more people who I will think of later...
anyways....

okay onto the actual happenings at the Emmy's.
I was extremely disapointed with the Red Carpet interviews done by Lisa Rinna and Joey Fatone. Terrible commentary. -They also somehow managed to not talk to a single cast member from Grey's Anatomy! And the questions they asked were just horrible! ...plus Lisa Rinna did seem to be on crack..like Joey suggested. I really hope those two don't make it back next year. ick! I could do a WAY better job.
I watched the E! red carpet coverage later on, and they talked to almost all of my favourite people, and had actual conversations and did not turn 'wacky'.
As for the awards shows,
I was very happy that Katherine won. But I was disapointed that that was only emmy for Grey's! I am not a fan of the Sopranos...and have never actually seen an episode. So as far as I know it could be the best show in the whole world...but it could be a terrible show. It seemed a little Sopranos centered to me.
Now I somewhat expected Heroes to not win. Sure it would have been nice if they had. :)
The set was horrific! It's a TERRIBLE idea to put so many people behind the stage. They would have spent the whole show looking at peoples backs! It's not like they were even little known actors or fans or something...they were winning people! Stupid.
I liked the opening number, not as good as Conan's song about NBC, but still entertaining. Ryan Seacrest was okay. Not great, but not overly terrible. -But the whole stupid costume thing...was stupid. And a waste of time really. The Sing-off thing was entertaining..sort of. Steve Colbert and John Stewart were entertaining. I thought when Kira Sedgewick, Mary-Louise Parker and Glenn Close came out they looked like Charlie's Angels. And I was glad to see a varied group of presenters from all my favourite shows...that were invited.
Also..whoever is doing the announcements...learn to pronounce peoples names! Especially those who are NOMINATED!

Best Dressed
I didn't think any of the dresses I saw were terrible. But maybe they weren't showing those. I loved all the ones that were brightly colored. -Except Minnie Driver's yellow one...but that might be bias, because I just don't like her.
I thought Katherine Heigl looked gorgeous! I liked Kate Walsh and Ali Larter in the red. -Ali Larter has this look like she's made to be there all glammed up. I didn't like Ellen Pompeo's hair..it was a bit odd. At first I thought she'd cut it really short.
I also was not a fan of Terry O'Quinn's bright metallic pink shirt...it just didn't work for me.
I sit on the fence regarding Vanessa Williams' feather dress. I liked the color, just not so sure about the feathers.
I might do a more extensive review of the fashions, when the magazines come out next week.
