2010 EMMY'S!!!!

i LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE jimmy fallon.

8:00 -this opening is decent so far... i love hurley from lost in the glee group.

-- haha!!! tim gunn!!!

-- jimmy gets sooooooo into this stuff. i remember when he hosted the VMA's in like 2001 or something, he was so energetic.

-- randy jackson! all star cameos, ladies and gents.

8:06 - just saw eric northman in the crowd looking smokin hot as usual.

-- CONAN!!!!!!!! he HAS to win tonight or i'll kill someone. probably jay leno. ;-)

side note: if 30 rock sweeps again this year, i'll also kill someone... probably tina fey.

8:12 - Funny gay guy from modern family wins. i am happy about this. i've only seen a little bit of that show but he is hilarious in everything i've seen. also, i love how last year and now this year the announcers are being funny. it adds a little something.

8:20 - modern family wins for writing. i'm also happy with this, except of course i always really want the office to win.

side note: i like how they're doing the show in categories by genre this year. usually it seems a little scattered. i also really hope lost wins for best drama just as a send off, even if it might not be the most deserving. that show was captivating for 6 seasons and hasnt been recognized.

8:25 - so happy jane lynch won. i dont watch glee, but she's always hilarious in movies.

commercial break--- going to get a diet coke. =)

8:31 - haha. i love jimmy's 6 degrees of kevin bacon for mathew perry. i also love mathew perry. FUNNY TIDBIT: mathew perry and lauren graham used to date. funny.

8:38 - best leading actor in a comedy series will go to alec baldwin, even though i REALLY want steve carrell to win. and...... it goes to........... jim parsons! if steve carrell didn't win, i'm glad it went to someone other than baldwin.

ricky gervais is coming up... WOOHOO!!!!!! he is on the top of my comedy heroes list.... ok maybe second to lucille ball.

8:44 - hahaha. cute little exchange between JF and NPH. i want edie falco to win. she is a bad ass. julia louis-dreyfus would be good, too. just as long as it's not tina fey. and the winner is......... EDIE FALCO! yay!!!!

haha... jimmy and celebs doing musical interludes = win.

8:47 - reality montage. hopefully this is funny...

ummm.... KERI RUSSELL'S DRESS looks EXACTLY like baby's dress from dirty dancing when they go to that other nightclub.

8:57 - time for drama. c'mon Lost!!!!! C'MON LOST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

-- ugh, mad men. i know it's a great show, but the writing on lost was just ridiculous.

-- michael emerson or terry o'quinn better win for best supporting actor. and the winner is.... NOT them. poop.

9:12 - lead actor in a drama series... MATHEW FOX! MATHEW FOX! MATHEW FOX! and the winner is.............NOOOOOOOOOO! brian cranston. ugh. poor Foxy Mathew Fox.

9:23 - jimmy fallon as elton john is phenomenal. what's next...?? jimmy as boys II men! hahahaha. i love him so much. jimmy as billy joe! haha. awww, cut to jimmy's wife nancy in the audience.

9:32 - kyra sedgwick and kevin bacon are adorable.

9:34 - yes! conan's catergory!!!!! this might be the one i want most out of the whole night. i just want some validation for conan that doesnt come solely from his fans.

-- haha. conan's crappy old car.

9:46 - YES!!!! ricky gervais!!!! he always says, "hello. me again."

-- HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! "not as much as the jews."

-- LOVE IT!!! ricky giving out beers. he is outstanding.

-- "i hope it's bucky gunts because i didnt know you could say bucky gunts on television."

9:51 - C'MON CONAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ugh, i want him to win soooo bad. second choice is bill maher. third choice is SNL. and the winner is............ BUH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the freakin daily show. what a bunch of horse crap. i'm gonna go vomit now. back after the break.

10:01 - clooney is humbled. looks good on him.

10:04 - tom hanks playing along with jimmy. love both of them. do not love the mini-series and movies category. do people actually watch these? am i missing out on something?

10:14 - sooo jealous of how gorgeous claire danes is. i wont be writing much during this category. not that interested.

10:17 - jewel is singing. i know her voice is atypical, but i love it. this song is really sad/beautiful. she did a great job.

10:25 - hello, blair underwood!! and once again, maura tierney looks amazing.

10:34 - YES! cast of true blood. i only wish hoyt was there. i think it's funny how anna paquin's accent varies from new zealand to canada to american depending on the interview. hopefully true blood wins later so alexander skarsgard is back on stage. =)

10:40 - of course they let pacino have alllllllll the time in the world. GET OFF THE STAGE, BUDDY!

10:45 - hahahaha. there were only two nominations for mini-series?! of course tom hanks and steven spielberg are gonna win.

--- dear lady in the white strapless cut-out dress; you're about to spill out all over the place.

10:50 - only ten minutes left. haha. jimmy and tom selleck hug. i think as long as tom selleck has a mustache he will never age. C'MON TRUE BLOOD OR LOST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and the winner is.................... mad men. BARF! give someone else a shot!!!!!!!!!!!

side note: none of my shows are winning, and i'm getting pissed. seriously? i know on the whole, mad men is probably a "better" show than Lost, but i really think the academy shouldve recognized how profound the impact of Lost was. so many fans were immersed the world of that show, and i just thought it would get the emmy since this was it's last year. oh well. i guess i should've known since none of my shows EVER WIN!

10:57 - best comedy series.... i know it wont go to the office. it goes to.............. modern family. i'm ok with this. like i said 23948208 times before, it is really funny.

well, it's over and pretty much nobody i wanted to win actually did. eff off, emmy's. see ya next year.

2010 Emmy Red Carpet

RED CARPET: (billy bush is ridiculous, sometimes)

i love jane lynch. hilarious, and always looks very sophisticated.

BETTY WHITE! i hope she wins tonight, if only to hear her acceptance speech.

claire danes NEVER looks bad. never. and YES! to nate burkis (sp?) helping with the red carpet. he's adorable.

jimmy fallon is too cute, and his wife is so refreshingly pretty.

kathy griffin actually chose a pretty dress this year. that weird gold/green curtain looking dress from a few years ago was awful. plain black was a good choice for this year.

just saw kate gosselin. next.

january jones is so pretty, but she's not doing herself any favors with that hair don't.

AHH! mindy kaling looks scary. but i still love her.

joel mchale is hilarious.

maura tierney (sp?) looks dynamite. i actually love the short, dark hair on her.

ugh. tina fey. i could do a better job styling you and my wardrobe is from old navy.

wanda sykes looks great.

i just wanna see jenna fischer and anna paquin... is that too much to ask??

i LOVE julie bowen... mainly because i love the tv show "Ed" and she will always be carol vessey.

i read an article a while ago that said lea michelle was a "major diva" and ever since then i just assumed it was true. she seemed delightful just then.

just saw anna paquin because NBC put her on their worst dressed list. i kind of agree. i just think the gold could've looked a little more delicate, but i understand the juxtaposition of the sleek black dress with the hard metal top. oh well!

and they're starting!!!!

Project Runway

so, this season of project runway has been a little lackluster for me. not only have the garments the contestants have made thus far been unimpressive (for the most part, there have been some really pretty things made), but the show got extended from 60 minutes to 90 minutes. i think the extra 30 minutes is Lifetime's way of filling their programming slots. the extra time really doesn't add anything extra to the show. if anything, the producers use the extra time to show more of the cat fights and smack talking interviews rather than showing how the designers actually make their pieces. obviously this is just to create more drama rather than focusing on the actual reason they're there. the way they (the producers) are portraying the contestants makes me not really like many of them based on their personalities. the only exception is valerie and peach (the token "old lady" this season).

however, there are a few designers i really like based on the clothes they make. gretchen made the prettiest dress on the first episode. they had to take a random piece of clothing from another contestant's suitcase and turn it into something. gretchen got this really ugly mesh appliqué jacket from contestant april's suitcase. the jacket was hideous (i thought), but the dress she made out of it was very classy and elegant.

there are only two things about this look that i don't like. number one: i wish the length was just above the knee all the way around. i've never been a fan of the uneven/asymmetrical hem. number two: i hate the boot. i think a nice pair of black stilettos or a nude pump would've worked much better. but what do i know... the majority of my clothes are from old navy.

i'm hoping in the next few weeks they trim the fat and we are left with the more creative and inspiring designers.
