I used to watch ALL the award shows. Since I hardly watch tv anymore it's not so exciting for me. I only watch the Oscars and Grammy's anymore.

I watched the Red Carpet stuff on E and the first 2 hours and then I was ready for bed. lol

What I saw I really enjoyed, however! It was honestly the best awards show I've seen in a while. It was funny and fun and the pacing really moved along well - the parts I saw anyway.

When have we ever been on TV? Really. lol

I don't watch "TV", Efan's list of nominees and winners, I've never heard nor seen any of these shows, with exception of some of those talks shows.

I thought Elizabeth Moss would surly get back home with her award. I knew Christina Hendricks had no chance since she barely had any scenes last season of Mad Men.

I was also rooting for Martin Short, although Aaron Paul also very well deserved it.

Now what with Treme being terribly overlooked in the bigger categories? I expected the lead actress to be a surefire win for Khandi Alexander. she killed on Treme.
