Emmy Awards 2008

Sunday, September 21st, 2008

Tina with 3 Emmys30 ROCK WINS 4 EMMYS!!!!

Total Comedy Domination!

We’ll be updating this post throughout the awards providing a little 30 Rock spin on the evening.

10:56 E: VICTORY!!!!! Maybe they’ll give 30 Rock a 4th season now. Just kidding… but seriously, long live 30 Rock! WOOO! WOOO! WOOO! We’ll be posting more Emmy goodness later tonight. GO TINA AND CO.!!!!

10:46 E: Tina wins!!!!!!!!!!!! We’re so happy for her. And Tina we don’t think your looks and abilities are disproportionate to your confidence. In fact, they’re very proportionate. As Moonvest puts it “What’s she talkin’ about? She’s smokin hot up there!”

10:30 Eastern: I think this text from Shark Eyes sums it up best “AHHHHHHHHH ALEC WINS!!!!!” Congrats Alec, it was certainly well deserved.

9:27 Eastern: Tina Fey wins Outstanding Writing in a Comedy Series! Go Tina go! Her acceptance speech was awesome. Hopefully we’ll get a video up soon!

12:40 Eastern: Here’s a look at the Pre-Emmy party NBC threw the cast of 30 Rock last night. You have to be a member of the site to see the high quality photos, but the thumbnails are pretty nice.

Best of Luck to 30 Rock! You can tune in to ABC at 8PM E to watch the award show and make sure you check back at PCB for photos and videos and hopefully a little celebration.

Once again, here’s the awards 30 Rock is up for this evening:

Predicting Emmy Submissions

Thursday, August 14th, 2008

After getting nominated based on their one episode submission, shows in the Best Series category choose 6 episodes to send in to showcase their season.  They are on 3 tapes of two episodes a piece.  This year 30 Rock was nominated for sending in “Cooter.”  Now they choose six episodes to run in the Outstanding Comedy Series race.

30 Rock has submitted their tapes and it should be leaked to the public in the next week or so.   I’m always curious to see what they are, since they can secure or loose an Emmy for the show.

In anticipation, I thought we could throw around our thoughts on which 6 episodes 30 Rock should and will have picked.
I’ll leave my thoughts in the comments below.

It’s A New Record!!

Thursday, July 17th, 2008

That’s right ladies and gentlemen, 30 Rock has set a new record of nominations amongst a Comedy Series! 17 Nominations! The previous record was held by the Larry Sanders Show in 1997 with 16 nods. So let’s all celebrate for that alone!!

Now I have a list of what 30 Rock is nominated for. There is a lot of writing so I didn’t copy entire categories. If you would like to see entire categories, go here, scroll down and download a copy. Now If I find myself to be more awake in the coming hours, I will find a comprehensive list and put it up here. For now, this is what I can give you! (Pardon the font, this is a big copy-paste job)

Things are Lookin’ Good

Tuesday, July 15th, 2008

I just want to start off saying I know that I SUCK for not updating. I promise on Thursday I will make it up to you with a very large Emmy Post. Pinky Swear!!

For now I have just a little article that has two Emmy “Experts” (I don’t know exactly what qualifies you to be an Emmy Expert, but that’s another story) predicting Comedy Top Five. And guess what! 30 Rock makes both of their lists. Check out the article here.

The official and final nominations come out SUPER early Thursday morning (the 17th), so I promise as soon and as early as I can get myself out of bed, you will have a fabulous Emmy Post hopefully booming with 30 Rock nods. Until then, may my apologizing for lack of updates be enough!

Comedy Actress Top Ten

Tuesday, July 1st, 2008

Woo! Tina made it into the Emmy’s Top Ten Leading Female in a Comedy!
(As if we had any doubt in our minds…)

Also, something made me smile. The article really just names who is in the Top Ten. But at the end, they want all the ladies to follow in Tina’s shoes. So much so that they gave us a Sandwich Day clip! And this is coming from EW.com, and they can be fickle.

As soon as the other Top Tens come out, I’ll let you all know!

Secret Emmy Panel?

Monday, June 30th, 2008

Apparently, the LA Times has a couple of secret friends in on the Emmy Panel that are taking the Top Ten Comedies and Dramas down to the Top Five. There were 3 judges that gave their reports:

Judge 1
Judge 2
Judge 3

I’m surprised to see Family Guy there. But I do a little happy dance to see that Ugly Betty gets the axe right off the bat. Sorry Betty fans, but it’s on at the same time as Thursday Night Comedy Done Right and anything that takes away viewers from NBC just gets a slap on the wrist from yours truly.

Also, I’ve never seen Pushing Daisies. Is it really that much of a contender? I know a little bit of the premise, but it never seemed like something that would stand out. Fill me in!
