Due to lousy transit on a Sunday night in this city, I missed the first 20 minutes of the 2008 Emmys, and got home to find out JEREMY PIVEN MADE IT A THREE-PEAT! Once again, he took home the Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for Entourage! On the next commercial break, I’ll try to find video of this moment online. The win makes me happy and sad at the same time – happy because Piven won, but sad because Neil Patrick Harris, who was equally worthy of this statue, did not win. I also missed Jean Smart’s win for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for Samantha Who? I got in the door just in time to see Zeljko Ivanek’s win for Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series for Damages. More to follow in my next post!
