A little about me, I am an avid television watcher and reviewer. I have a very large tolerance for all forms of television and so this is why I will be gracing your computer screens with television reviews and related news. But here I am with an emmy recap as well as my thoughts on the nominees and winners.

Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series

The Nominees were

Chris Colfer: Kurt on Glee

Neil Patrick Harris: Barney on How I Met Your Mother

Jesse Tyler Ferguson: Mitchell on Modern Family

Eric Stonestreet: Cameron on Moden Family

Ty Burrell: Phil on Moden Family

Jon Cryer: Alan on Two And A Half Men

Winner: Eric Stonestreet Modern Family

Having seen all of these actors except Jon Cryer, my official pick was for NPH, his role as Barney is incredibly good. However of the three actors from Modern Family Stonestreet is my favorite and I’m glad he pulled out the win.

Outstanding Supporting Actress In A Comedy Series

Jane Lynch as Sue Sylvester on Glee

Julie Bowen as Claire Dunphy on Modern Family

Sofia Vergara as Gloria Delgado-Pritchett on Modern Family

Kristen Wiig as Various Characters on Saturday Night Live

Jane Krakowski as Jenna Maroney on 30 Rock

Holland Taylor as Evelyn Harper on Two and a Half Men

Winner: Jane Lynch of Glee

This was my pick to win it this year. Jane Lynch is incredibly funny and though I’m not an overall fan of Glee she is the best actress on the show. Her work on Party Down was also amazing and she definitely deserves it for this role.

Guest Actress in Comedy Series Winner: Betty White SNL

This episode of SNL was very funny and Betty White is one of the best older actresses out there today. She will be on the newest episode of Community Season 2 so make sure to watch that.

Guest Actor In Comedy Series Winner: Neil Patrick Harris on Glee

This episode of Glee with NPH was my second favorite episode of the series after the Pilot. NPH did a fantastic job and he’s a fantastic singer.

Outstanding Directing For A Comedy Series

Glee • Pilot

Glee • Wheels

Modern Family • Pilot

Nurse Jackie • Pilot

30 Rock • I Do Do

Winner: Glee Pilot

This was the best episode of the show Glee. A very well thought out episode but in my opinion it has been downhill ever since.

Outstanding Lead Actor In A

Comedy Series

Jim Parsons as Sheldon Cooper The Big Bang Theory

Larry David as Himself Curb Your Enthusiasm

Matthew Morrison as Will Schuester Glee •

Tony Shalhoub as Adrian Monk Monk

Steve Carell as Michael Scott The Office

Alec Baldwin as Jack Donaghy 30 Rock

Winner: Jim Parsons

My sentimental favorite was for Larry David but Jim Parsons did do a very good job in the role of Sheldon Cooper this year.

Outstanding Lead Actress In A

Comedy Series

Lea Michele as Rachel Berry Glee

Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Christine Campbell The New Adventures Of Old Christine

Edie Falco as Jackie Peyton Nurse Jackie

Amy Poehler as Leslie Knope Parks And Recreation

Tina Fey as Liz Lemon  30 Rock

Toni Collette as Tara Gregson United States Of Tara

Edie Falco Nurse Jackie

Having not seen beyond the first four episodes of Nurse Jackie I can’t really comment, and also since I’ve only seen two of the other shows I wasn’t up to date on who would win this one. I did like the first four episodes of Nurse Jackie though.

Outstanding Supporting Actor In A

Drama Series

Breaking Bad Aaron Paul as Jesse Pinkman

Damages Martin Short as Leonard Winstone

Lost Terry O’Quinn as John Locke

Lost Michael Emerson as Ben Linus

Mad Men John Slattery as Roger Sterling

Men Of A Certain Age Andre Braugher as Owen

Winner: Aaron Paul: Breaking Bad

Damages is the only one of these shows I have not seen. Being a big fan of Lost I did want Terry to win, but Aaron Paul is a very good choice for this one. His acting is phenomenal on Breaking Bad.

Outstanding Supporting Actress In

A Drama Series

Burn Notice Sharon Gless as Madeline Westen

Damages Rose Byrne as Ellen Parsons

The Good Wife Archie Panjabi as Kalinda Sharma

The Good Wife Christine Baranski as Diane Lockhart

Mad Men Christina Hendricks as Joan Harris

Mad Men Elisabeth Moss as Peggy Olson

Winner: Archie Panjabi — The Good Wife

This was another category I’m not caught up on. I haven’t yet watched this season of Mad Men and I haven’t watched Damages or The Good Wife, so I can only comment on Sharon Gless and I didn’t think she deserved the win.

Outstanding Lead Actor In A Drama

Series

Breaking Bad Bryan Cranston as Walter White

Dexter Michael C. Hall as Dexter Morgan

Friday Night Lights Kyle Chandler as Eric Taylor

House Hugh Laurie as Dr. Gregory House

Lost Matthew Fox as Jack Shephard

Mad Men Jon Hamm as Don Draper

Winner: Bryan Cranston: Breaking Bad

I like all 6 of these shows and all these actors were excellent this season. House had it’s best season yet, Dexter was awesome, Friday Night Lights continues to be a better show then it should be. But Breaking Bad is one of the best on television right now and Cranston is so good.

Outstanding Guest Actress In A

Drama Series

Big Love Mary Kay Place as Adaleen Grant

Big Love Sissy Spacek as Marilyn Densham

The Cleaner Shirley Jones as Lola Zellman

Damages Lily Tomlin as Marilyn Tobin

Law & Order: Special Victims Unit Ann-Margret as Rita Wills

Lost Elizabeth Mitchell as Juliet Burke

Winner: Ann-Margaret

I wanted Mitchell to win but I haven’t seen any of the other shows. I am not update on leading females.

Outstanding Guest Actor In A Drama

Series

The Closer Beau Bridges as Detective George Andrews

Damages Ted Danson as Arthur Frobisher

Dexter John Lithgow as Arthur Mitchell

The Good Wife Alan Cumming as Eli Gold

The Good Wife Dylan Baker as Colin Sweeney

Mad Men Robert Morse as Bertram Cooper

24 Gregory Itzin as President Charles Logan

Winner: John Lithgow

Lithgow was amazing on this season of Dexter, if you haven’t caught up you really should. I’d also like to make a shout out to Itzin for being my favorite character in the series 24. The moment he showed up I knew I would love this season.

Outstanding Lead Actress In A

Drama Series

The Closer Kyra Sedgwick as Deputy Chief Brenda Johnson

Damages Glenn Close as Patty Hewes

Friday Night Lights Connie Britton as Tami Taylor

The Good Wife Julianna Margulies as Alicia Florrick

Law & Order: Special Victims Unit Mariska Hargitay as Det. Olivia Benson

Mad Men January Jones as Betty Draper

Winner: Kyra Sedgwick The Closer

I’m not a big fan of The Closer, my mother loves it and she says it’s good so I’ll believe her on that. I would have given it to Connie Britton.

Outstanding Variety

The Colbert Report

The Daily Show

Real Time With Bill Maher

SNL

Conan O’Brien

Winner: The Daily Show

I had hoped Conan would take it, but The Daily Show has been very good this year. Also people should watch Real Time With Bill Maher, I watch it every week and it’s very good.

Outstanding Drama Series:

Breaking Bad

Dexter

The Good Wife

Lost

Mad Men

True Blood

Winner: Mad Men

Mad Men and Breaking Bad seemed to be the two at the top this year, but with Mad Men being more of an ensemble piece I can understand it winning. Lost’s sixth season was not the best season but I still enjoyed it a lot.

Outstanding Comedy Series:

Curb Your Enthusiasm

Glee

Modern Family

Nurse Jackie

The Office

30 Rock

Winner: Modern Family

This is more my area, I was very sad that my favorite show of this past season Community did not get nominated. My sentimental pick was for Curb, this past season was among the best they’ve ever done and the Seinfeld episodes were just top notch in comedy. But I am glad for Modern Family winning, I did like the show overall and it did receive and A rating from me for the season. It was my second choice to win this season and if you haven’t watched it you should give it a try.

The show itself was pretty decent, Fallon was a nice host, the beginning of the show had a funny Glee spoof with Jorge Garcia and Joel McHale which was very fun, perhaps youtube-ing that would be best. The last half of the show wasn’t very good as they were trying to rush it. Congrats to the winners and let’s hope for a good season this year.
