The Emmy's are Ridiculous..

I'm not sure (unless its required under contract) why actors/actresses who are not Brian Cranston, Julianna Margulies, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Jim Parsons, anyone from Modern Family, Allison Janney even bother to show up.

Seriously how many emmy's do these ppl need to validate themselves?

They need to stop calling the Emmy's an award show and start calling it "The Primetime Emmy Show were we give statues to ppl with no real good reason for doing so other than the stars know who us voters are and this allows us to rub elbows with them if we are at the same party, because Matthew McConaughey would never give us the time of day even if we voted for him".

The Emmys have a long, kooky history but this year was particularly jaw-dropping in how many repeat winners there were, it's like the voters didn't really bother to look at the other nominees just went along with their regular choices. I just can't see how Modern Family can remotely be considered so superior a comedy as to win this award year after year.

Julianna Margulies winning was a surprise! She was not even nominated last year. So why should she not show up. But with the other nominees i have to agree with you.

Doing some research i'll back off on Julianna Margulies, my bias against the good wife (it may be a good show but i don't like or watch it) probably made me throw her into the group.
