I know, I know. By watching the Emmys, I am failing Lauren Graham and excluding myself from the title of "loyal fan." But I just can't help it. I love the dresses, and I do kind of want to know who's going to win. Please don't hurt me.
1. Marcia Cross really does look amazing.
2. Jennifer Garner is the most adorable pregnant woman ever. I hope we get to see her standing up, because I want to see her whole dress.
3. Did Ellen just call Megan Mullally Karen Cross? Because I thought her name was...Megan Mullally.
4. If you're going to lose, lose to Blythe Danner.
5. I like it when people make political statements in their speeches. If I had twenty seconds to say whatever I wanted on national TV, I hope I'd say something worthwhile.
6. My personal jury is still out on Kristen Bell as Veronica Mars, but she gets props for her performance of "Fame."
7. Oh, Zach Braff. You're so cute, and you even make bad Emmy-presenter dialogue funny.
8. Hey! It's Maisie!
9. I *heart* Jon Stewart.
10. What is wrong with Mischa Barton? And I don't mean that rhetorically.
11. I know it's hard to believe, but Everybody Does Not Love Raymond.
12. Jaybrams just won an Emmy. JJ, I'm pissed at you, but congratulations anyway.
13. Jonathan "Joe-Man-Joe!" Rhys-Meyers is nominated for an Emmy? Really?
14. It's sort of entertaining to watch the winners overstay their time, and then the girl in the black-and-fleshtone dress edge into the background and try to get them offstage. What a job.
15. Matthew Fox. Guh.
16. Hee! That woman put her speech notes in her bra, and then lost them. That's the best. "Mom! I lost it!"
17. Have I mentioned that I *heart* Jon Stewart?
18. Oh, gosh. Please, can we not let William Shatner sing? Please?
19. I like Peter Jennings.
20. Huh. Felicity Huffman. I so don't care. Cute anecdote about William H. Macy, though.
21. Oh, Lauren. It should have been you.
22. Well, we all knew Jennifer Garner wouldn't win. And honestly, she probably didn't deserve to, not for this season. But still, I had hope for her. You know, though? She's probably over it. The rest of her life is going pretty darn well at the moment.
23. All right, that's it. Bedtime, or thereabouts.
