The big Prime Time Emmy telecast will air on NBC next Sunday night, but did you know that 2/3s of the Emmys will be given out during tonight’s Creative Arts Emmy Awards?
The show is not telecast live, but an edited version will air on E! this Friday night.
Check out the list of Emmy nominees for the shows I cover on the blog: American Idol, So You Think You Can Dance and Dancing with The Stars HERE.
American Idol was shut out of every single category tonight, including, Best Art Direction for Variety or Nonfiction Program (Academy Awards), Outstanding Short Form Picture Editing, (Late Night With Jimmy Fallon), Outstanding Sound Mixing for a Variety or Music Series, (Grammy Awards & Rock n Roll Hall of Fame Concert)
Ryan Seacrest was once again shut out of the Best Reality Host category by Jeff Probst of Survivor who has won it every year since the category was created in 2008. But, he was able to console him self when Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution a show he produces, won Best Reality program.
Controversy: The Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality-Competition Program was demoted this year. Oh noes! So we find out if Ryan Seacrest is once again snubbed for best host. (Personally, I’m rooting for Dancing With The Star’s Tom Bergeron)
Congrats to Mia Michaels who won Best Choreographer for her fine work on So You Think You Can Dance. and Neil Patrick Harris for his hilarious work on Glee.
