My, but the EMMY AWARDS show was abysmally boring last night. And much of it tasteless as well, with most of the not-only-politically-incorrect but virtually insulting jokes falling flat as pancakes.
That gal from GLEE (whose name I don't even know) was hopeless as emcee. Her jokes were in the main the height of tasteless, and her opening number was really clunky and clumsy and frankly stank.
The silly vocal bit with the Emmy-Tones -- I guess to give that 60s feel since the 60s are so in right now -- was really bad.
The presenters seemed clueless much of the time as they read the poor jokes off the teleprompter, and that beauty-pageant send-up done with the Lead Actress in a Comedy category was particularly a WTF??? moment.
The only thing halfway decent in the whole show was the In Memorium segment.
Geeze, you think people in television would know how to create an awards show that works as television!
