The Emmys on Sunday Night...

...were lame. Right, JJ? I mean, a little embarrassing in how soporific. Stupid jokes. I love my NPH, but maybe someone else needed to do it after his Tony extravaganza. Worse is that I remember nothing about the night, except for Jane Lynch!!! That's not entirely true--the tributes were very moving. I also remember Sarah Silverman's solid gold performance. I can't even go into the Elton John song. Award shows are very difficult. Maybe they've always been bad...

Dexter finale: completely predictable. Still scary and the "right" ending for the show. TG jumped at one moment, came up off his exercise mat. I feel so proud that I reintroduced him to obsessive TV watching. His Ph.D is melting into a haze of Breaking Bad, The Voice, Cupcake Wars and Snapped.

For those who were terrified by Tierra on last season of The Bachelor: Her engagement is off.

YES! That Is Correct! I just don't understand what happened to comedy writing.... For 2 generations now, "funny" has come to mean stupid and there has been no torch passing or master classing in comedy, so if you're over the age of 14, nothing is funny!!

I agree. Completely LAME! The closest thing to funny on Awards was Ricky Gervais--though I realize he's not everyone's taste.
