The Emmy's are COmming . . . The Emmy's Are Coming

Of all the award shows that lull viewers to sleep, the Emmy's seems to attract the most interest and viewers.  On Sept. 23, 2012, the 64thj Annual Emmy Awards will be on ABC with pre-game starting at 7pm Eastern.

Hosting for the first time is ABC's Jimmy Kimmel.  Frankly, I think he will do fine.  He draws a young audience and his comedy is current.  It could be one of the better shows in a long time.

The Emmys are, generally, not a political affair like the Academy Awards or the Golden Globes.  This year may be different.  A California PR firm is working with several series (most on ABC) to promote Obamacare.  While I will not watch those series, I plan to watch the Emmys.  Will the political crap from the Obama campaign hurt the show?  Yes, absolutely.  You can be the judge.

Here is the list of Emmy nominees for the 64th Annual gala.  Pick you favorites.
