And the Winner Is....

Instead of watching the Emmy's last night, I drove a few miles from my parent's place to the ACL Fest to pick up the HcQ (that's the husband con queso in case you forgot) after the Wilco concert. And what should have taken hardly any time ended up taking approximately 78,000 hours. Therefore, I missed most of the Emmy's. Lucky for us, the ScQ (sister con queso) came over to my parents to watch the show with me, and here are her takes on the real winners of the evening....

Presenters I’d Most Like to Have Drinks With: Tina Fey and Julia Louis Dreyfus

Presenter That Made You Think: “Why was Seacrest Host?”: Ellen DeGeneres

Best Emmy Mom: Katherine Heigl’s mother

Best Old School/New School Collision: Tony Bennett and Christina Aguilera duet

Best Geek Chic: Rainn Wilson

Best Interruption of the Get off the Stage Music: Tony Bennett

Best Just Had a Baby Boobs: Marcia Cross

Most Predictable Girl Power Moment: Glen Close, Kyra Sedgwick, Mary Louise Parker presentation

Most Well Preserved: Tie…Sally Field and Helen Mirren

Presenters I’d Most Like to Have as Neighbors: Steven Cobert and Jon Stewart

Biggest Rip Off: James Gandolfini didn’t win for dramatic actor

Best Comment on America: Helen Mirren, “You Americans and very generous people. You are other things as well. Some good, some bad. But you are generous.”

Most Needless Rant: Some guy got up, I didn’t catch his name, but he got up and started yelling at TV producers. It was self-important, maybe slightly true, but mostly ranty and loud. When millionaires rant how they’re mistreated, it’s just stupid.

Weirdest Win: Tony Bennett beat out Steven Colbert, Jon Stewart, Dave Letterman and Ellen DeGeneres for an award. Weird. But he gave a nice acceptance speech.

Weirdest Outfit: Seacrest. In a strange Shakespeare outfit. Someone said he looked like a medieval pimp. And he did.

Weirdest Bleep Moment: Sally Field. She got bleeped because she said there would be no war if mothers ruled the world. Or something like that.

Best Geek Rap: Rainn Wilson and Kanye. Like Peanut Butter and Jelly. Or Salt and Peppa. Or Kids and Cows.

Best "Green" Statement of the Night: “If entertainers start publicly congratulating each other, the earth wins.” Jon Stewart/Steven Colbert

Just the Best: Queen Latifa presenting the 30-year mark of Roots

And just like last year, I have to add the category:

Most Fab Emmy Winner Who Was Also in My British Lit After Burns Class: Angela Kinsey. You have to love her.
