Way to go Neil Patrick Harris for doing such amazing job hosting the show. When it comes to winners I am bummed about Family Guy, but I am OK with wins for Michael Emerson, Kristin Chenoweth, Bryan Cranston, Jon Cryer and I called this one when I reviewed the show Toni Collette for United States of Tara. The rest are pretty much Emmy standard, But I can’t complain too much because they finally nominated outside the box. Let’s hope next year they continue that trend!
