DR MBarnum - I think the real question is: Have you already picked out the Indian restaurant you want to eat at?

No, but I know what Indian DVD and CD stores I am gonna shop at!

The opening number wasn't gloriously bad - it was just bad. Bad bad. I will be most interested to see if I've ever actually seen any of these shows that are nominated. For example, I've never seen Everybody Loves Raymond, the first winner.

I don't know what CSI is.

I've never watched "Everybody Loves Raymond," either. I do watch "Boston Legal" and "Lost."

bk · « **Reply #334 on:** September 18, 2005, 08:24:18 PM »

Don't know what Boston Legal is.

But William Shatner does not look like a person in his 70s - what on earth has he done?

I once worked with Megan Mullalley briefly and her voice did NOT sound like that.

It's not a question of what he has done, it's a question of what he has had done.

The "Green Acres" theme was just performed. I thought it was pretty funny! They were introduced as "Donald Trump and Will and Grace's Karen Walker." Not "Megan Mullally."

I've heard of the Tony Awards, but Hugh Jackman, as much as I enjoy him, hardly deserved an award for hosting them.

If I NEVER have to hear the "voice" on these TV teasers again, it will be too soon. It is no wonder I stay away from all network television.

George · « **Reply #340 on:** September 18, 2005, 08:32:33 PM »

I just tune out the voices...like the ones in my head.

Don't know from The Amazing Race. Never seen West Wing.

Oh, Blythe Danner, just accept the award and shut up, really.

bk · « **Reply #344 on:** September 18, 2005, 08:40:10 PM »

I may have to stop watching - I'm just sitting here like so much fish, dazed and confused.

MBarnum · « **Reply #345 on:** September 18, 2005, 08:46:00 PM »

I think you need to watch more television, BK. You might find some stuff you like.

Actually, I don't believe she was lip-synching. She was a bit pitchy - and those background vocals were way off at times. -Unless they were meant to be that way. I've worked with Kristin a few times, and I've seen and heard her move more and sing better than she just did.

To me, it did look like she closed the "m" on the word "Fame" before her voice made the "m" sound.

Matt H. · « **Reply #347 on:** September 18, 2005, 08:58:50 PM »

Megan was playing a part while singing. She used her Karen Walker voice. She was ot singing as Megan but as squeaky Karen Walker.

Matt H. · « **Reply #348 on:** September 18, 2005, 08:59:40 PM »

I lioved Blythe Danner. Thought she looked beautiful and agreed with everything she said. Lovely tribute to her late husband, too.

bk · « **Reply #349 on:** September 18, 2005, 09:00:32 PM »

What has sweet little Kristen Bell done to herself? She didn't look like that when I worked with her.

And when you have someone singing the lead in a number, how do you place her upstage or center, and have dancers constantly moving in front of her. That's why there are no stars anymore, because directors and choreographers don't get the drill. And what was with all those Michael Peters' moves from Dreamgirls and the early Michael Jackson videos? Note to choreographer: It's 2005 and get your own style, baby.

The Tony hosting that jackman won the award for was his first time hosting when he was nominated for THE BOY FROM OZ. He sang and danced through the whole show, and did that ad-lib segment with Sarah Jessica Parker. He was brilliant on the show that night, and I was delighted he won.

I think that winning an Emmy or any award is not an invitation to mouth off about things that are unrelated to that win. Just my little ol' opinion - has nothing to do with agreeing with her or not.

Glad I watched BLACK NARCISSUS. Oh my....Repression with a BIG R!!

Enjoyed it very much!

bk · « **Reply #353 on:** September 18, 2005, 09:02:31 PM »

I've never even heard of half the shows they're mentioning. I don't know the actors.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #354 on:** September 18, 2005, 09:03:26 PM »

I think I will Silent Sunday Night and see IN OLD SAN FRANCISCO!

Black Narcissus is a masterpiece.

You don't watch TV. Maybe that's why.

Penn & Teller's BS is nominated.

David Letterman - at last, someone I know and like.

I was VERY thrilled with the winner of Individual Performance in Variety or Music Special.

Oh, you mean Hugh Jackman...who was brought on stage with music from (wait for it...) DREAMGIRLS!
