OMFG. *makes eleventy icons*

Okay, totally working on my paper now.

Great Emmy winner, or greatest Emmy winner?

That, Tina Fey's 400 billion wins and Mad Men's series win were my favorite moments last night. Oh, and Josh Groban's theme song medley. That was a total mind fuck.

I know there are a few people who will disagree with me, but I loved the near constant digs at McCain, Palin and Bush. Liberal Hollywood FTW. Tommy Smothers is my new grandpa crush.

On the shallow front, Jenna and Angela were both wearing green, my favorite color. I'm choosing to believe it's because they love me best. Yep.

ETA - From this post @ ontd_political:

Colbert got a little more pointed backstage in the media tent. Asked which actor he would cast as Republican presidential candidate John McCain, Colbert said, "[Don] Rickles, obviously, would be good. And maybe me for Sarah Palin, because I also have absolutely no business being vice president."

LMAO.

You know those fantasies you didn't realize you had until someone else mentions it?

Win a Chance to Share Hot Cheese with Stephen Colbert

Stephen Colbert and a pot of hot, creamy cheese...

No, we haven't been tapping into your feverish dreams. We're telling you about a special eBay auction, launching on September 5th, which will give you the chance to bid on a fondue lunch with Stephen.

The auction ends on September 15th and 100% of the proceeds go to Stand Up To Cancer.

Be a hero and help out a great cause -- and maybe get a chance to break bread (and dip it in cheese) with Stephen Colbert!

O.M.F.G.

Why didn't I know that yesterday was the birthday of both Stephen Colbert and Bea Arthur?

Talk about best day EVER.

From this taping report for The Colbert Report:

Anyway before the taping of his show, he takes questions from the audience. And this one woman asked him, “So…are you fucking Matt Damon too?” And he says, “No…why? Does his dick taste like me?”

OMG I CANNOT EVEN.

Happiness is waking up to the gift of Stephen Colbert's man bits in icon form.

Thanks, thetopdown!

ETA: Happiness is also knowing when your favorite shows will be back on air:

One of the first skeins back on the air will likely be NBC's "Saturday Night Live," probably on Feb. 23.

Most ratings powerhouses -- like ABC's "Desperate Housewives," NBC' "The Office" and CBS' "CSI" and "Two and a Half Men" -- will likely be back on the air by the end of March. They'll probably produce four to eight episodes for broadcast this season.

One exec close to "The Office" believes viewers could start seeing new episodes in five weeks. Dramas would probably take longer -- around eight weeks for a show like "Ugly Betty" -- limiting how many episodes can actually air.

There are few things I love more than seeing my favorite celebrities on Sesame Street. Stephen Colbert in Sesame Street's All-Star Alphabet? Yes, please! (Actually, I already have it, so empty that shopping cart!) (And, no, it's not actually mine, it's my nephew's.) (Stop looking at me like that.) I didn't think it could get any better than Tina Fey's cameo as a Book-a-neer in this season's premiere. It turns out I was wrong. Very very wrong.



Oh my fuck.

This (incredibly hi-res) photo brings me to my happy place:



Stephen loves Steve thiiiiis much! ♥

I don't have the energy to upload and post the billions of photos I've right-clicked and saved, so here's a bunch of links.

andy_chronicles has a bunch of Ed (and his belt buckle!) here.

i_get_it_, who doesn't yet realize she's my new best friend, has posted ridiculous amounts of amazing hi-res photos throughout Livejournal Land. She's offered up photos for the casts of The Office, 30 Rock and Flight of the Conchords. (Yes, that is Jemaine undressing you with his disgustingly blue eyes. asgddagag.)

Now that I've proclaimed my love for Jenna, John and their respective bows, here's a general Emmy picspam. If you're not a fan of The Office, The Daily Show or The Colbert Report, then you probably won't care about this post.


I am so bedazzling my WristStrong bracelet.

( Emmys 2007 - The Good, The Funny and The OMG BJ Novak's Drunk Again! )

I'm giving my Emmy predictions now because I'm bored and my hair is marinating in hair dye. I'm only focusing on the comedy categories because I only watch one drama, and for some reason, the one person I wanted to be nominated, Jack Motherfucking Coleman, was overlooked by sentimental favorite, Masi Oka. (Whyyy, Academy of Television Arts and Sciences? Whyyyyyyyyyyy?!) This is where my cynicism kicks in. I'm completely expecting NONE of my favorites to win. TWoP is pretty much expecting the same.

Here are the people i want to win. These are probably the people who won't win.

( And the winner is...WHO?! )

Also, I'm not sure if I want Stephen Colbert to win Outstanding Individual Performance in a Variety or Music Program, or if I'd rather see Tony Bennett win it and have Stephen experience faux rage for a full week. Either would be pretty sweet.
