On Sunday night, A Series of Unfortunate Events was up against Sesame Street, Carmen Sandiego, Songs of Parkland and Star Wars Resistance for Outstanding Children’s Program at the Creative Emmys. There could only be one winner and it was not Neil Patrick Harris.
A day after his loss he wrote, “A Series of Unfortunate Events lost at last night’s Emmys to Sesame Street. I’d say I was bummed, but Catherine O’Hara told me: losing an Emmy to ‘When You Wish Upon A Pickle’ is in many ways, a funnier way to end the story. I like that. #befitting #countolaf @netflix @TheEmmys”
Is it just me or does he sound bitter? He has 5 Emmys, how many more does he need? How many actors wish they had just one. He needs to remember that.
I cannot remember the last time I saw Neil Patrick Harris, and he has gone through a major transformation. Gone in Barney Stinson and hello is someone legen-wait for it-dary. As in a porn star from the ’70s. Then again it could just be the stache.
I hope it is for a movie. If not, I hope someone introduces Doogie Howser to a razor. Because that is not a good look on him.
Actually, now that I think about, that pornstache is so Barney Stinson if he was an adult during the Disco era.
Yesterday on The Late Late Show, James Corden and Neil Patrick Harris sang telegrams to unsuspecting people and I think they should make a career of it. Not only are they funny, but they also have a way of personalizing each one.
I want them to sing one for me and I am even willing to pay $10 for it. Would you pay them for the purrfect singing telegram?
Seriously though, that is the loudest I laughed at a bit from the CBS late night show, they should do it more often.
We have all heard that Neil Patrick Harris is good at magic, but how many of us have seen him do it? Now we can say that we have because he performed two tricks on Ellen today. His first trick was card one and it did not go over that well. The next was a gifting one and it also did not go over so well. Wait why did I say he is a good magician? Oh that’s why!
James Corden and Neil Patrick Harris are not only Tony winners, they have also hosted Broadway’s biggest night. Yesterday, when NPH was on The Late Late Show, he challenged the host to a musical duet and only one man came out the winner. While the other one ripped his tight pants. Can you guess which one is which?
Back to the Riff-Off, they started it off with Sit Down, You’re Rockin’ the Boat from Guys & Dolls and then the man who met your mother sang Gypsy’s Everything’s Coming Up Roses. Up next he was all about Being Alive from Company while the CBS host held a note from Les Miz’s On My Own that none of us knoooooooooooooooooooooooooown he could do. If that didn’t turn you on, then them sexing it up will. JC shook his hips to All That Jazz from Chicago while Harris showed us what they are for singing Sugar Daddy from Hedwig and the Angry Inch, a role he played on the Great White Way! As NPH declared himself the winner, Corden said he was retiring from singing Showtunes. Thankfully he decided to give it one more shot as they did a duet to Hamilton’s My Shot.
Hopefully, we will see this bit again because it is pure joy.
