As most people know, the Emmys broadcast was postponed to October in deference to the disaster of Sept 11th. My question is:
Should they even bother to put it on?
There is already a movement by several actors not to show up.

Why not just announce the winners, and move on?

Ikeaboy - comment? :)

Yes I have a comment.

Fuck the Emmys. Fuck them up their stupid assholes. Fuck Joan Rivers and "What are you wearing?" Fuck the slap on the backs Hollywood give themselves. Fuck the good shows for not getting recognized. Fuck them for saying Frasier and FRIENDS are the best shows on television. Fuck that stupid fat fag Bruce Villanch. Being obese and gay does not mean you're funny. Why does he keep getting hired? Fuck the retarded dialogue between presenters. Fuck Ellen Degeneres for hosting. and fuck the lame jokes she'll say.

If a tree falls in the woods when no one's around to hear it, does it make a sound?


Some people are stupid.
Some are full of shit.
Some people are FUCKIN' nuts.
Most people are all three.

Hey, I always ask the expert :)

In other years, Emmys are now worse than other awards shows. Yeah, the wrong shows usually win, but that is no different than the Grammys, etc.

In a normal year it represents the start of the TV season. This year, it just seems to represent wrong priorities.

I'm sure CBS has no desire to cancel; it tends to be a highly rated show.

Speaking of Cancellations / postponements, If they move the Super Bowl one week back (as is currently discussed), it will conveniently fall during Feb sweeps. I know they've also said that it "wouldn't count", but it would definitely screw up the ratings book.

Say, I wonder how much of an impact a February Super Bowl would have on the "new show premiering after the Super Bowl"... Anyone here remember "The Good Life"? I rest my case... although Fox should give "Family Guy" a chance.
I always thought the February sweeps period started the Thursday before Super Bowl Sunday, anyway. So either way, the Super Bowl will fall into the February sweeps month period.

I agree with most of you, Emmy's suck. They are way too long and boring. CANCEL

God Bless The USA.
