2006 Emmys

I have to say that the best part of the Emmys, in my opinion wasn't the awards at all.

But frankly, either NBC is choosing to close its eyes to a situation it doesn’t want to acknowledge, or they are unaware of the caliber of disaster indicated by a drop to forth place.

Weeeell, be got trouble my friends.
Yes we got trouble right here on NBC with a capital T that rhymes with G
As in Gee we’re screwed.

Yeah, we got trouble,
Trouble right here on NBC.
With a capital T that rhymes with G
I know you don’t care but our network share is just one dude.
Well, a few years ago we were sitting on top of Seinfeld, Frasier, and Friends.
Then those shows bailed and the new ones failed and it started a nasty trend.
And the guy who was cast on Lost, we promoted instead of tossed.
And now the peacock’s getting it from both ends.

Yeah we got trouble, right here on NBC.
With a capital T that rhymes with G,
As in Gee we’re screwed.
Yeah, we got trouble, right here on NBC.
And my lawyer checked I can’t be sued.
(His Lawyer checked he can’t be sued)

And it’s not just NBC folks,
All of television is changing and we have to change with it.
Tivo has people skipping through commercials,
Instead of the good old days when they just got up and left the room.
And then there’s the internet!
Right now your kids are on YouTube watching a cat on a toilet,
Instead of watching that footage where it belongs,
On the Fox network!
And worst of all,
TV’s biggest night of the year is kicking off with a song and dance number,
Performed by a host with limited musical ability!
(He can’t sing!!)

Yeah, we got trouble.
Tro-tro-trouble.
Had a lot of viewers, now we got a few.
To prove things are going to hell,
We’re relying on Howie Mandell!
With a capital T,
And that rhymes with G,
As in Gee we’re screwed!!!

Yeah, that was my favorite part. And I am a little proud to say that I typed that up myself. By spending a little-a lot too much time with a YouTube clip and Microsoft Word.
