After last year's mess of an awards show and this year's joke of nominations (where is love for Lauren Graham, Academy of Television Arts & Sciences?), we were going to swear off this year's Emmys. But then we realized Conan O'Brien was hosting, so we must watch and liveblog. And there's the hope of a good Steve Carrell bit, not to mention awkward reaction shots of Candy and Tori Spelling during the Aaron Spelling tribute. more ›

Desperate Housewives is fun and everything, and God knows that Marcis Cross must have a TV show, but Gothamist knows why the Hollywood Foreign Press Association betstowed so much love on them: They want hot ladies in hotter dresses at the ceremony. That's why Debra Messing keeps getting nominated. Then it's a lot of the usual "HBO gets lots of nominations stuff." Meh.
