So Britney Spears decided not to appear at the Emmys to apologize for her VMAs catastrophe. So what? There were still plenty of ups and downs – and straight up WTF moments – to keep us entertained.
The Good: The weird and wonderful 30 Rock beat out more mainstream shows (suck it, Ugly Betty) to take the trophy for Comedy Series. If only the show’s star Alec Baldwin had won for Best Crazy-Ass Voicemail Left For a Kid – it’d have been a sweep.
The Bad: Sopranos boss James Gandolfini lost out in the Actor in a Drama Series category to a guy – (Boston Legal‘s James Spader) who played the asshole in a lot of 80′s movies. Guess the people who choose the Emmys were pretty pissed about that bizarre Sopranos series finale and had to take their anger out somewhere. Sounds like something Tony Soprano would do!
WTF: As she accepted her award for Supporting Actress in a Drama Series, the adorable Grey’s Anatomy star Katherine Heigl told the crowd, “My own mother told me I didn’t have a shot in hell of winning tonight so I don’t really have anything prepared.”
Hey Katherine – we hear Edie Falco‘s looking for a new gig. She may play a dysfunctional mom on TV, but at least she’d be supportive – and make you a sh*t-load of lasagna.
WTF Runner Up: Heigl’s co-star Ellen Pompeo‘s alien hair-do (see above). What’s she got under there – a few hundred snacks?
Check out the full list of Emmy winners and let us know who you think deserved to win (hurray America Ferrera and the guy who plays Locke on Lost!), and who was robbed.
