Oh, for crying out loud.

I love Lost. I love Terry O'Quinn and Naveen Andrews.

BUT they were not going to win. I can wish and hope all day like the rest of you for them, but the fact remains that shows in their first season almost never win anything. You're hoping for Lost to win Best Drama? It won't. I can guarantee that right now. If it does win, it'll officially be the biggest shock of the evening, because -- and you guys KNOW this, I know you do -- the Emmys award the same shit every year until they finally take it off the air. (See: Everybody Loves Raymond.)

And for the record?

William Shatner kicks fucking TOTAL IMMEASURABLE ASS on Boston Legal. And I speak at someone who has hated and despised him in almost everything else he's ever done, but Denny Crane is a god and that's all there is to it.

EDIT: Okay, see ... that right there? *points to writing award* Biggest shock of the evening.

They lost to the greatest actor in television history. I ain't complainin'.

Also see: Will & Grace... cause WTF? It hasn't been funny for the last three seasons!

It's ever been funny?

[tinylegacies.livejournal.com]

I personally enjoyed it until the Harry Connick Jr guest start stunt and the "marriage" between his character & Grace.

After that, I thought it went downhill.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Oh, yes. Watching the reruns points that out really clearly.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

I know! It's like I said -- they keep inviting famous people on and clog up the Guest Stars section. I think it was seven awards they got simply in those categories.

THANK YOU so much. I've already had two people whining about how horrible an actor Shatner is, but they've never given Boston Legal a chance!

Getting there on Jake 2.0... and if you don't know what that means, check your Yahoo email. *eg*

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Seriously! You can't complain about Shatner unless you've actually seen the show -- that's a new rule. Because he completely redeems himself with everything he says as Denny Crane.

And I haven't gotten a chance to respond about Jake 2.0, but YESYESYES, I will send you the address just as soon as the Emmys are over. And thank you so much! :)

Delayed feeds are so lame. It still hasn't started on the left coast.

I'm betting Six Feet Under takes the Emmy for best drama.

[anxietygrrl.livejournal.com]

The Shat rules. I feel kinda sorry for people who don't get this.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Shatner as Denny Crane = love. LOVELOVELOVE.

[anxietygrrl.livejournal.com]

The album he did with Ben Folds was pretty damn cool, too.

[tenebris.livejournal.com]

Sorta comment jacking, but...he did a whole album with them? REALLY? Because I've heard "In Love," and if the rest of the album matches that, then I need to get it NOW.

I love his new album. Not all of it was with Ben Folds though.. other artists too.

[anxietygrrl.livejournal.com]

Sorry, I meant that Folds produced it. But yeah, lots of other great artists, too!

[thebitterguy]

So, you officially shocked?

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Yes, a happy shocked. :)
