About Time, No Pun Intended

(posted 8/27/06)

Congrats to "24" for finally, finally, by god FINALLY winning its long deserved Emmy as Best Drama, and to Kiefer Sutherland finally grabbing a statue for best lead actor. The show has been the best produced and most consistently entertaining hour on television for the past five years, and acknowledgement of this has been LONG overdue. Congrats to the show and to its rock of a leading man for finally picking up some gold for their hard work. Helps to wash out the bitter taste that all the bizarro-land nomination omissions (No Hugh? No Jason? No Lost?) brought to the table.

(BTW, the New York story is coming...I've actually been working at it on and off for the past week. Expect an epic entry soon enough.)

(One more BTW...The Simpsons picking up an Emmy this late in the game just screams, "Hi, we're the voters. We don't watch the show anymore, either. But we'll throw it an Emmy because we don't wanna give another statue to that naughty 'Family Guy' or 'South Park.'")
