The Annual Primetime Emmys - General Discussion

[Misslindsey]

Grrrrrrr......Amy Schumer. I cannot stand her.

[maraleia]

Sarah gave a shout out to her lady love Holland Taylor because she's a class act.

[Browncoat]

I still hate G's dress -- and hair, too.

Who's that with her?

The Night at the Museum clip? I don't know much about him, so why would he be pissed they showed that?

Rami said that he asked the director to never release that clip. He said it quite a few times which makes me think he really meant it and wasn't just playing around. I think he is trying to be a serious actor.

[Neurochick]

Claire Danes looks orange.

[kittykat]

Looking through pictures I'm seeing a lot of floral prints.  But like prints you'd see on furniture upholstery as opposed to dresses.  I'm not sure how I feel about this.  On the one hand it's better than the one-note safe black dresses but at the same time not everyone is pulling it off.  Ellie Kemper's fabric in particular looks like it came from a 70s couch.  It's not bad I'm just questioning the theme.

And yet I still prefer the prints to the yawn inducing strapless red/purple/black numbers that are usually rampant.  Interesting to say the least so far.

Holy whuuut Claire Danes is a walking Emmy.

Too much self tanner, Claire. Yikes.

[Misslindsey]

I like Claire Danes' dress, but she is very orange. It looks harsh against her blond hair.

She said it was her sister.

[Browncoat]

Claire Danes does look orange, and that dress isn't doing her any favors.  Minnie Driver's yellow dress isn't the best color for her, either.

Every actor has at least one embarrassing clip from their entire career. He shouldn't let it ruin his night. There's nothing worse then an actor who takes themselves too seriously..

[Misslindsey]

I kind of like Ellie Kemper's dress. It did look like a somewhat retro print, but I thought it suited her.

I liked the color of Mandy Moore's dress, but not the actual dress. Is she in some television show or something?

[maraleia]

Amy Schumer isn't all that and a bag of chips as they say. She's ignorant about a lot of things too.

[Chas411]

I really can't stand Schumer.

Chill Rami, every actor has done something embarrassing; I mean Kevin Spacey played a cat in his latest film.

I don't like Minnie Driver's dress and WTF is Kirsten Dunst wearing?

[Neeners]

Kelly Preston's hair... is she in some country music movie or something?

[Thumper]

I liked Claire Danes's dress on her.  Didn't notice the orange.

Damn, Kerry Washington looks good hugely pregnant!

[Neurochick]

Taraji looks great in yellow.

Who's the young woman doing the interviews on ABC?

[Browncoat]

Taraji P. Henson, on the other hand, looks great in yellow.

[Chas411]

Is Claire Danes sunburned?

Did Amy Schumer say something about a tampon? I missed it but Guiliana looked so awkward.

[Browncoat]

She did -- she named the designer of her dress, her shoes, and then added that she was also wearing an OB tampon.  Way to keep it klassy, Amy!

Yes, she mentioned she was wearing a tampon, like we care.

[DearEvette]

I am loving Kerry's wild hair.

[Neeners]

Oh. A little late to this party, but.... hello, Kit!

Aww, I like her dress. Sophie Turner and Carly Chaikin (?) are wearing similar dresses. 

[Misslindsey]

Taraji looked great in yellow, but I thought the dress was a bit boring.

[bmoore4026]

Well, here we go.

[mojoween]

Will Ferrell isn't going to show up again, is he? I hope not because he's not half as funny as he thinks he is.

I don't like yellow at all but Taraji's dress looked great on her.

[Browncoat]

We should put Taraji in Minnie's dress, and give Minnie a different color altogether.

[Chas411]

That is gross. Why would she feel the need to mention a tampon? Giuliana struggled to hide her disgust at that one.

[maraleia]

Kerry Washington is killing it tonight and she was also on fire during her Real Time with Bill Maher appearance on Friday night.

[bmoore4026]

Well, right off the bat and I'm not laughing

[Browncoat]

Is this supposed to be funny?

[bmoore4026]

Oh, screw off and die, Modern Family

Me either. I do like Malcolm Jamal Warner though.

[bmoore4026]

Why can't James Corden host?

[jcin617]

Hawkins Power and Light!   Yay Stranger Things reference!

[wallflower75]

Oh God...I'm going to have "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" stuck in my head for the rest of the night.  Grrrrr....

[DearEvette]

Weirdly, Jimmy Kimmel looks eerily like George Michael.

[ebk57]

I'm so over Corden.  If I was ever on to him to begin with.

 

He should stick to making movies of Sondheim musicals.

[Arynm]

And Julia saves the whole bit! Love her

[ebk57]

Jeb!

 

Okay, that was mildly amusing.

[bmoore4026]

Kimmel made Veep unfunny.  Congrats.

Totally fug. Pants, really? Didn't Demi Moore do that 30 years ago?

30 years ago, try Kiernan Shipka from last year's Emmys.

[bmoore4026]

AND YOU LEAVE DROGON OUT OF THIS!!!

[Browncoat]

Oh yes, flaming E's coverage made me smile.

[Misslindsey]

And I though Neil Patrick Harris was bad (Though he is a pretty good Tony host).

Quote

Her and Tony Hale might have saved it. Maybe. I think he is making Veep unfunny. Sigh.

[Spacecow]

Not really a Kimmel fan I thought that intro was pretty funny.

[catrox14]

Jeb was actually...funny
