Reality/Variety

announced together, so they wouldn't cut the Emmytones song announcing the category.

Oooh, I like the purple dress Jane Lynch is wearing.

Reads off her gay agenda. Reach out to Rachel Maddow about spinning, change the oil in her truck and left the third thing in her fanny pack.

Introduces Kaley Kuoco and David Spade.

Outstanding Reality Competition program:

And Amazing Race wins again. Raise your hand if you're shocked. No hands? I didn't think so.

Wow, they brought up a baseball team.

Outstanding Writing for a Variety, Music or Comedy series...

I love this part. When they announce the writers for the various show. They only had 15 seconds to get everyone's name in.

Colbert Report - They all shout out their names at same time and Stephen Colbert
SNL - Justin Timberlake was the picture for all of the names
Jimmy Fallon - cute dogs were the picture for all of the names
Daily Show - actual photos on the cover of Newsweek
Conan - Pulls one name out of a hat and it's his own name

And The Daily Show wins again. Color me shocked. But, I did dig their acceptance speech. One of the head writers read a written speech that sounded like it was written by a third grader as Jon Stewart was stopped from getting to the podium by the rest of the writers. It said that usually Jon Stewart checks their writing, but this time, he didn't.

Okay, at 11:05, the Globes are officially over and yet, Arnold had to leave the audience with a bad taste in our collective mouths, with a dated Terminator joke "Remember, next year, we'll be back." Bad governor, bad!

Overall, I thought the awards were good. Not great... little that stood out or that I'll be talking about the next day. Maybe Sasha Baron Cohen's acceptance speech, maybe Helen Mirren's double victory, definitely the Grey's win, but that's because of the ABC factor. Oh, and definitely Ugly Betty and America Ferrara's victory. Again for the ABC factor and also cause it's a damn fine show, and a surprise. And, I was mighty pleased with the Hugh Laurie win. Oh, and I almost forgot about Meryl Streep. And, I did enjoy the Warren Beatty tribute. So, I apparently do have a few things that I can chat about.

But, live blogging was fun. A) cause I was able to make it through the whole show and 2) because now the show is over and I'm done. I don't actually have to recap it because y'all can just read the preceding posts. I might have a post mortem tomorrow (check out that Grey's Anatomy reference), but now... it's on to the Daily Show. And, in case you're wondering, no I don't know why all my time stamps are PST, when I'm clearly in the EST. I'll try and fix it before my next posting.
