two cents



it has been a week since the emmy's. no live coverage in this part of the globe as usual. the highlights shown on some far flung channel were devoid of genuine chuckles. not that Jane Lynch wasn't entertaining, she was good. definitely much much better than Ryan Seacrest. but the presenters and winners' speeches were a bit of a dud. except for Ty Burrell's best supporting actor winning speech for Modern Family. that was really funny.

it was a win for Jim Parsons for best actor in a comedy series for The Big Bang Theory. i love Sheldon Cooper character. geeks should inherit the earth and no else's. not even Michael Scott of The Office. i find dry humour dull. i peek at The US Office once in a while. for Steve Carell fans, he's a huge movie star. he doesn't need a tv award to validate his status in the industry.

Julianna Margulies, my favourite George Clooney's love interest and the only ER actor to have won an Emmy, nabbed best actress in a drama series. i may not like Alicia's choices. but i'm quite happy with this latest The Good Wife triumph. Archie Panjabi may have not won but Margo Martindale's recognition is definitely Justified.
