HollyNotes: The Emmys, Babies Galore, and Khloe?s Getting Married

The Emmys Let's begin with the Emmys. Pretty good, right? Neil Patrick Harris was spectacular. Sharp, well-dressed, witty, and just plain awesome. In fact, I think I might be in love with him.... I was super happy 30 Rock won Best Comedy and Mad Men won Best Drama. I was less happy with the winners of Best Actress in a Comedy and Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy: Toni Collette from The United States of Tara and Jon Cryer for Two and a Half Men??? Really? Um, Amy Poehler anyone? Kristin Wiig anyone? Or what about Jermaine from Flight of the Conchords? Really? Jon Cryer?!? NEIL PATRICK HARRIS was in the running for crying out loud! Okay, so I'm going to be honest. I wasn't totally blown away by the fashions I saw on the red carpet. A handful of ladies looked sensational (January Jones in Dolce & Gabbana for one), but most looked un-wow-worthy. Some JUST missed-Blake Lively's Versace red dress was sensational on the top, but the slit all the way up the leg was too much. The color of Christina Applegate's Basil Soda dress was gorgeous, but there were just too many details. All in all, I was disappointed with the crop of dresses this year. Luckily, we have the Oscars in just a few months. Overall, I thought the show was entertaining and well-produced. Usually these shows seem never-ending and uninspired but this was unique and had a few fun extra touches (Love the four split-screens as the show went in and out of commercials.) I give the show an A.
