Anyway, small comment, but thanks for your work!

September 19, 2011 at 6:27AM EST Reply to CommentI disagree about Jane Lynch. While she wasn't awkward or even bad, she never did anything interesting or special. She was just there, from time to time cracked a joke that made me chuckle a little but mostly not and...that's it.
And yes, I wish award shows would stop turning the IN MEMORIAM segment into show numbers. Just show the dead people and play some music in the background. It was nice of them to think of Andy Whitfield though. I was sure that he would be overlooked, since SPARTACUS is one of those I-watch-it-but-don't-tell-anybody shows.

Dan, i love you man, but i strongly disagree, that show is funny, but is not great, so i can live with it's multiple wins, and chalk it out to a thing Emmys's voters do, but not to actually think is anywhere something good. When Louie & Parks and Rec gets shut out, and Community doesnt even get nominated. :(
