AND THE EMMY GOES TO...

Me. Just joking. Unfortunately, while the Emmys were going on, I was on a plane flying 3000 miles back to LA. I Tivo'd the show, but what's the point really? Once you've missed it, and can't talk about it the next day, you're pretty much out of the loop. I was able to catch the best awards, for Best Drama and Best Comedy Series. You know what won for Best Drama? Do you? DO YOU!?!? 24, baby!!! And really, are we surprised. Actually, I'm very surprised. I didn't think anyone appreciated this amazing show, but me, my roommate and best friend. To top it off, Kiefer also won for Best Actor in a Drama. The Gods were smiling down on us, and I missed it!!! What the hell? Also, I wanted to upload some pics from it but it's not working and I don't have patience to wait. Although, my girl crush, Katherine Heigl, was looking stellar.

Here's who won...

YAY!!!!!! Finally some recognition!

I didn't see them all get up there, but last year when they did it was a bunch of 40 year old white guys. Diversity is funny too Jon!

Okay, I don't like talking about shows I don't watch, and really, Gwenny's mom could be great on this show, but tell me, is she really better then Sandra Oh, Chandra Wilson and Jean Smart? I can't imagine it.

This is a given, she WAS the show.

SEX AND THE CITY

Last weekend, for some reason, I decided to watch some On Demand TV. I don't know if any of you have this with your cable provider, but for me, it's a cool feature that allows you to watch a show, like Deadwood, or Sex and the City, or The Chappelle Show, if you missed it, or want to see it again.

Even though I saw it when it first aired, I turned on the first half of the last season, starting with the infamous Post-It episode. Watching the show rekindled my love for it. In fact, I think I may like it more then I did the first time. Why is that ya think? I tried to analyze why it seems to be having such a different affect on me and I think it's because of my age. I'm slowly approaching the age these girls were when we first started. Well, everyone but Samantha. It's all resonating better with me now.

The show, sometimes completely unbelievable, was just so damn good, and current, and funny. I wish I was blogging about shows when this one was on because I just love it. If you don't have On Demand or whatever your cable provider calls it, Neflix or go rent the DVDs. This show cracks me up. And really, how bad can a show be if you get to see this...
