There is some expectation that I will comment on the Emmy's so...

The Good: Mad Men's win was well deserved. As was Barry Sonnenfeld's. And Bryan Cranston's win almost brought a tear to my eye. His category was perhaps the most difficult to navigate. Both Jon Hamm and Michael C. Hall deserved an award and if it had been up to me to pick a winner I don't know if I'd have been able to. But dark horse Cranston has been shafted for years, and his show, "Breaking Bad," is the best show that no one's watching. So hopefully this will get it a little more attention for its second season.

The (very very) Bad: Who's idea was it to have those idiot reality stars host the show? Whoever it was should be tarred, feathered, and relocated to a colder climate. Also (and I can barely mention this without yelling and/or cringing) Jeremy Piven? Jeremy Piven?! That statue rightfully belonged to Neil Patrick Harris and every one knew it.

If you missed it you can read the play-by-play at twop.
