Matt goes for "apprentice"

Tour de Donut


 

My first Emmy experience in 5 years.

I have no interest In any award show.  99% of the time.  I have no interest in celebrities but my roommate is in the gender of the female. So I must watch. 

Ever step on an electronic scale to quickly and you register an “ERR” error? on the digital scale of comedy that’s what the saturday night live did co-hosting. 

Jerry Ryans nipples are out of control. 

Guest actress in a comedy series: Farah Fawcett was a nominee.  Am I the only person that thinks there’s something wrong with that?  Shouldn’t everything she do be considered comedy. 

Larry David-I’m so curbing it. I still don’t understand the greatness of TV. 

Why it Prime time Glick still on? And why was he nominated for an Emmy?  It’s still Martin Short and Unfunny mode.  It’s just in a fat suit.  Just like Will Farrell (mugatu) says about Zoolander “It’s the same look! Doesn’t anyone else notice? I feel like I’m taking crazy pills here”

Simon Crowell, Randy Jackson, Paula Abdul.  I’m ready for a judging joke, .and I’m ready for some time of spoof for the 40th time…and as I finish this sentence…they already started it.

Joe Pantiliano: Loved him in Momento, love him in the sopranos.  Hate him in that stupid hat he’s always wearing. 

Everyone forgot about Ned and Stacey? I’m going to be the single solitary hand.

My Roommate then starts chiming in ever 45 seconds and I decide that it’s much more interesting to write down what she says over anything I can come up with.

“I like him”

“she sucks”

“I haven’t even seen Jennifer Aniston’s yet so I can pick apart her outfit”

“...nomination for mini-series “live from Bagdad” Robert  Weiner.

Tee hee. (that was me)

“I’m glad for William H. Macy, to bad he’s got an ugly ass wife.”

(voice over) ”and from sex in the city. Sarah Jessica Parker.”

“I don’t why everyone likes her so much, I mean, she seems like a sweet person but there’s something that I want to dislike about her so I’ve might...(she enters) and yeah for your top on your dress is way big”

“I hate Jennifer garner! I hate her I hate her I hate her”

I don’t know half the time if she’s talking to me or just making comments.  Women need other women when they watch this.  This is their Superbowl.  It’s been decided that I’m a terrible Emmy watcher, because I’m not interested, don’t chime in, and I’m on the computer typing these words.  So she picks up the phone and critiques with friend in Omaha.

(on the phone)

“…and what do you think about Sarah Jessica parker?  Where are her boobs at?  Her milk boobs?  She just had a baby, where are her boobs?”

“Let’s talk Paula Abdul now…What’s THAT about.”

“….there’s Jennifer! Finally.  And she of course is wearing a boob dress, and she has no boobs”

“24 would be such a terrible show to work for, it wouldn’t be any fun, cause you don’t get to wear different clothes”

“Cosby, I used to love him, he’s such a bitter old man now, why?  He’s got a lifetime supply of Jello. Get over it, but how good were pudding pops though?”

About halfway through, I have the need to go take a shower, in between the rinsing of the shampoo and the application of the conditioner the door opens…

“…Debra Messing won!! Debra Messing won!”

“um..yeah?”

“I’m so happy for her. Yay!”

“um great”

“she beat Jennifer Aniston!”

“ok”

“even with her big nose”

“good for her”

“aren’t you happy?”

“hell yea?!?” sarcastic font on

“ugh, that’s why guys shouldn’t watch, this is my football.  This is my football”

-And she goes back watching TV

When Cosby gets up for his award…”oh. Now your nice now”

I made the mistake of telling my roommate to get off the phone for the John Ritter montage (she was in another room) and it was bob hope thing.  Then she blurted,”…that’s’ why guys shouldn’t watch the Emmy’s.”

 

Exactly.
