62nd Emmy Primetime Awards Part III
by Jaclyn Abergas on July 26th, 2010Comedy, Drama, Reality TV, Specials
The Emmy Awards nominations continued.
Outstanding Reality - Competition Program
Nominees:
American Idol (FOX)
Dancing With The Stars (ABC)
The Amazing Race (CBS)
Project Runway (Lifetime)
Top Chef (Bravo)

Outstanding Variety, Music or Comedy Series
Nominees
The Colbert Report (Comedy Central)
Daily Show With Jon Stewart (Comedy Central)
The Tonight Show With Conan O'Brien (NBC)
Saturday Night Live (NBC)

The 62nd Emmy Awards Nominations continued.
As I've not watched the actors and titles mentioned in this post, I will remove predictions because, basically, they won't have any basis.
Outstanding Lead Actor In A Miniseries
Nominees
Sir Ian McKellen, The Prisoner (AMC)

Dennis Quaid, The Special Relationship (HBO)
Michael Sheen, The Special Relationship (HBO)

The Red Carpet
by Ronald A. Rowe on March 8th, 2010Specials
There is something I just don't get. We're all TV lovers here. Maybe you like CSI and I like House, but we all share an appreciation for the small screen. If we didn't we wouldn't be here at Couch Tuber, celebrating our Couch Tuber-ness.
If you love TV, you probably love the movies, too. I mean, nobody watches the network shows but turns away in horror when TBS runs their movie o' the month for the 13th time. Movies and TV, they go together. They're made for each other (quite literally in some cases).
So, Oscar Night on TV makes sense....
