Kirstin Chanewith and Neal Patrick Harris are here. He is tiny, but she is tinier. Individual Performance in a Variety or Music Program is next -

And the Emmy goes to…

Don Rickles, “The Don Rickles Project!” Yay, I was hoping he’d be back on stage.

10:12
Kate Walsh and Wayne Brady are presenting Guest Actor and Actress in a Drama Series. I think this is one of those things that actually got presented last week, but no one was watching, so we have to re-hash it.

And the Emmy goes to…

Glenn Turman, “In Treatment!”
Cynthia Nixon, “Law and Order: SVU!”

Who, in turn, will present Directing for a Drama Series.

And the Emmy goes to…

Greg Yaitanes, “House: House’s Head!” Interestingly, Massive Attack doesn’t translate well to Emmy music. I love “House,” but I’ve fallen so far behind. I think I’ll just have to start over again with this season.

Now, it’s all about Writing for a Drama Series.

And the Emmy goes to…

Matthew Wiener, “Mad Men: Smoke Gets In Your Eyes.”

At this point, I’d just like to say that I will never ever decide to do a live reactions article until I’ve put a serious amount of thought into what it entails. I feel like my nerves are about to explode. IT ALL HAPPENS SO FAST AND I CAN’T SPELL ANYONE’S NAME. HELP.

Glenn Close is now presenting Lead Actor in a Miniseries.

And the Emmy goes to…

Paul Giamatti, who has an extremely odd way of talking.

Candace Bergen is now presenting Lead Actor in a Comedy Series.

And the Emmy goes to…

ALEC BALDWIN, “30 ROCK!” I AM SO EXCITED I CAN’T STOP TYPING IN ALL CAPS. OMG OMG. JACK DONAGHY. LET ME HAVE YOUR BABIES.

10:27
Vanessa Williams and America Fererra. Vanessa has no mic. That’s probably for the best. This is Actress in a Drama Series.

And the Emmy goes to…

Glenn Close, “Damages!” Wow, she’s been nominated 11 times and this is only her second win. Ouch. Her speech is going on a bit long, I think she’s going to get dragged offstage with a hook in a second.

10:29
We’re now having an “In Memoriam” section. I imagine Bernie Mac will be on here at some point. Awww, Sydney Pollack. A LOT of people died this year. A lot.

10:37
For some reason, they’re running out of time. How does this always happen? It’s now time for Lead Actor in a Drama Series, courtesy Kiefer Sutherland. Why the hell is Boston Legal considered to be a drama, anyway?

And the Emmy goes to…

Bryan Cranston, “Breaking Bad!” I was hoping it would be someone I recognized.

10:40
Brooke Shields and Craig Ferguson? What? Why are they together? They’re here for Lead Actress in a Comedy Series. It better be Tina Fey.

And the Emmy goes to…

TINA FEY, FOR “30 ROCK!” YESSSS.

10:43
Jimmy Kimmel is now presenting the Host of a Reality or Reality Competition Show. Now we find out which host wins! Wow! I’m so excited I can barely keep my eyes open. OH, THEY’RE DOING IT AFTER COMMERCIAL BREAK. I SEE.

10:50

And the Emmy goes to…

Jeff Probst! Yey.

Now, Mary Tyler Moore is taking the stage. She looks fantastic! Full of spunk and all that. Betty White is joining her, making jokes about how long the show is running. We’ve now got seven minutes left, can they make it? IT’S TIME FOR COMEDY SERIES.

And the Emmy goes to…

“30 ROCK!” I seriously just threw my arms into the air and cheered. Now start watching it, all of you. Tina Fey just worked a plug for the show’s premiere in, that’s fantastic.

10:55
Tom Selleck is presenting Drama Series, the last award of the evening. It might not actually run over!

And the Emmy goes to…

“Mad Men!” I should really start watching this show.

Well, that’s it, folks. All two hours of it. I am never, ever doing live reactions again.
