The Emmys sent out a letter to the nominees telling them that this year’s event will be virtual according to Variety. As if anyone thought the Emmys were going to go on as is like they have in the past during the coronavirus pandemic.
Anyways, in the letter, they tell them they are going to bring the cameras to them on September 20th. They can dress up to the nines, or they can wear PJs. They can go live from their house or somewhere else. They don’t have to worry about looking good because they will handle that too. All they have to do is prepare to go live when it comes time for them to accept their award.
That makes me wonder if they are going to do that for all of the nominees or just the winners? I think it sucks to be the latter. Imagine you are waiting for the call that they are going to set up at your location, and they never show. At least, they will know they lost ahead of time, unlike Jimmy Kimmel who still has to host even though he will lose again. Awkward.
Seriously, I really feel bad for the losers who don’t get the 5-star treatment. When it comes to the ones, who will get the treatment and lose, at lease they can shut the feed off and drown their sorrows in wine and ice cream immediately. They don’t have to sit there in their clothes that are too tight and cry on the inside. They can cry in their homes with their loved ones. Unless they don’t have anyone else like Jennifer Aniston and have to cry all by themselves. Now, I am actually sad for her. Over it.
Just like I am over this year’s Emmys that completely ignored Amazon’s Hunters and NBC’s Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist.

When Hollywood got hit by COVID-19, production shut down. That meant that all of the talk shows went dark. It didn’t stay that way for too long because Conan O’Brien was the first one to announce he would be doing new episodes from his home.
That was three months ago, and I think that his family has had enough of him being with them 24/7. That is because today, he revealed that starting on Monday, he will be doing his TBS show from Largo at the Coronet in Hollywood instead of from whatever room his family banished him to.
The new location is perfectly safe. The guests, as well, as the audience, will still be at their homes. In fact, just a few of his staff members will be joining him in the makeshift studio, while the rest will be working from their home offices.
The theater is a place he has known for almost 35 years. As O’Brien explained, “I got started doing improv at the Coronet in 1986 and I’m glad we’ve figured out a way to safely keep that theater going during this lockdown.” And for his family, it is a much-needed break from him.
Talking about breaks, Jimmy Kimmel is taking the summer. Now, we know who will be the first people who will be filling in for him while he has gone fishing. On Monday and Tuesday, Anthony Anderson will be hosting the show. Then on Wednesday and Thursday, Billy Eichner will be sitting in the big chair. Which is his own since Kimmel has been doing his ABC show from his house, and his wife has been doing Matt Damon from there too. Can you blame her?
UPDATE: Conan O’Brien confirmed what I suspected. He posted the below photo and wrote, “I am thrilled I’m moving my show to @largolosangeles next week. My family is more thrilled.” -Conan
Jimmy Kimmel announced on his show tonight that he will be taking the summer off from his late night talk show. He says that he just wants to take a break to be with his family, and everything is fine with and between them.
However, I am not so sure that can be said anymore. That is because his wife, Molly McNearney., was seen coming out of the room that Matt Damon has secretly been staying in. I guess the women in his life can’t help but to f*ck Matt Damon. Do you blame them?
Back to Jimmy Kimmel Live, while the talk show’s namesake is on vacation, several people will be filling in for him. Please let Matt Damon be the first one!
The Emmys is the first, and probably only, major awards show to air on its original date this year. While the Tonys is on hold because of the coronavirus pandemic and the Oscars will be delayed two months until April 25th, ABC says f*ck it. They are going on with the show on September 20th, and Jimmy Kimmel will be the master of ceremonies.
I bet you have a lot of questions, and the late night host has all the answers. Here they are, “I don’t know where we will do this or how we will do this or even why we are doing this, but we are doing it and I am hosting it.” There you go!
ABC says they will announce further details at a later time. No sh!t, Sherlock. I doubt they will be able to do it in a theater with a full audience.
My friend and I were discussing that yesterday. She is like they can do it without an audience. I said, “The nominees and the presenters have to be there. What are they going to do, put all of the losers on the upper levels?” Then I added, “Imagine Jason Bateman looking down at the first floor and seeing the probable winner in his category there while all of the other losers are on the same level as him. We would see a lot of sad actors who knew they lost on our televisions before they actually found out.”
The other option is they can do like other unnamed awards shows and only invite the winners. How boring would it be if Alex Borstein was the only Supporting Actress in a Comedy sitting there while Kate McKinnon is home, eating ice cream, and watching TV’s biggest night on her TV? No fun at all.
Actually, I would rather watch the losers watch the show than the winners accept their awards. Let’s get to see those pissed off faces on our televisions. That I would tune in to watch.
Are you going to tune in to see what is most like going to be a huge mess? In Kimmel’s defense, what can be worst than hosting during the whole La La Land/Moonlight fiasco? This is a cakewalk as compared to that infamous Oscar night

I grew with my mother’s side of the family being orthodox. I went to a religious high school (by choice) until I got kicked out for being too secular. In college, I was a religious studies major, even though most of my teachers wish I wasn’t. As you can tell, religion is important to me, and I believe everyone should practice what they want and how they want. I just don’t think anyone should tell anyone else how to do it. Believe me, I still get that from some of my family members.
Another thing I hate is when people fake being religious for personal gain. For example, when Donald Trump used pepper spray, rubber bullets, and military force to get the peaceful protesters to vacate the area in front of the White House for a photo op in front of St. John’s Chruch across the street. Trump held up a Bible upside-down and backside forward for the press to appease his Evangelica base. Instead, he infuriated several religious leaders, including the ones associated with the church and Pat Robertson. You know he is in trouble when that happens.
Back to the photo op., even though Trump was surrounded by cameras, he never opened up the Bible and read anything from it that might calm the anger in America right now. That is because he doesn’t care about religion. Yet his worshippers think his sent from Gd. He literally did a Jim Jones and told them to inject disinfectant to get rid of coronavirus, and they still believe he is the next coming of Christ. Have they not read the ten commandments recently?
I do believe he is a Christ, the antichrist. That is why I was surprised nothing happened to him as he held up the Bible. While in reality, it didn’t. However, Jimmy Kimmel Live showed us what we wanted to happen. I have been saying he didn’t enter the church because if he did, he would spontaneously combust. The church, sadly enough, suffered fire damage from disgraceful looters and didn’t need any more sufferening.
