Did GOD OF CARNAGE cancel the Sunday performance today? (since Marcia Gay Harden is at the Emmys)
Hope Davis is nominated and is there as well. And yes, they had a Monday show this week instead.

Kudos to the Oscars for two winning musical numbers --
*Hugh Jackman's Opening number won for Music and Lyrics for a Specials show!
*Earlier announced, the "Musical is Back" number with Hugh Jackman et al won for choreography!

This just in: "The star, who won her first Emmy award earlier on Sunday evening for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy for her role as Olive Snook in ?Pushing Daisies,? first complained about a migraine headache, then said she couldn?t open her eyes.
Paramedics are with her now in the room outside of the backstage gift lounge."

Oh I disagree. I LOOOOOOVED Drew, and she winning would have made me happy too, but I thought Jessica was a revelation. She played the part on both sides of the time gap to perfection.

Or anywhere else...
I can't believe the Musicals are Back won best choreography over any of the Think You Can Dance routines--maybe they sorta ruled each other out though,.

Posted: 9/21/09 at 9:53amMusicals are Back actually tied with one of the SYTYCD numbers. Not sure which one, though, since I don't watch the show.

OMG, even with Neil Patrick Harris, this year's telecast was horribly boring. Even Dr. Horrible was horrible (not horrible actually, but it was dull.)
Other than Toni Collette were there any real surprises...??
Boring, boring, boring...
And tsk tsk to the poster upthread with the WRONG spoiler. If you are going to ruin something, ruin it right.

Lange completely deserved that Emmy for her Big Edie, poor old Drew just couldn't cut it.
And while I'm glad that Ken Howard finally got some Emmy love, there's just no way he should have beat Andy Serkis' brilliant work in LITTLE DORRIT.

Posted: 9/21/09 at 1:35pmI am happy for Kristen, I didn't think she would win because she was up aganist some SNL cast members. I am glad it sounds like she is feeling better too.

Posted: 9/21/09 at 8:17pmI know this may be more than mere coincidence since Shaiman and Wittman wrote both songs, but does anyone else think that NPH's "Put Down the Remote" opener sounded like "It's Hairspray" from Hairspray?

Funny, how the 'inside information' was wrong...
And then, no posts after that.

glancing at the arrivals (women). Isn't it amazing how naturally beautiful some of the ladies are...and how a few look like they stepped out of the Tammy Faye Baker's School of Make Up.
I used to think Cheno was pretty...but this get-up and make-up are sleezey and hideous, IMO.

No posts cuz the Emmy's are over, you pill!
30 ROCK, MAD MEN and Chenowith not Krakowski... and I'll admit the person who told me the latter information said "the blonde from Broadway" and I just ASSUMED Krakowski. Guess he was right!
Worst case scenario: 2 out of 3. If that's "wrong" I don't wanna be right.
Keep up the bitterness, TheatreDiva, there isn't enough of it around here!
I can't WAIT for YOUR insider information, should it be as accurate!
KISSES and HUGS!

PB ENT. - I had the unbelievable privilege of going to the Emmys this year and walked the red carpet with my boyfriend (I should say TRAILED him as he walked)...my biggest realization as I checked out the women was how ORANGE they all were. They were very pretty but some of them - Allyson Hannigan in particular - need to LAY OFF the spray tan. During the commercial break before Cherry Jones won, she grabbed my dress because she "HAD to feel it!" Then she was up on stage. Now I dont want to get my dress dry cleaned!
