The Emmys: What the bleep was THAT?

Ricky Gervais — played here by Steve Carell — took the Emmy for best actor in a comedy. Carell's substitution for the missing Gervais was one of the few genuinely hilarious moments in a three-plus-hour telecast that was one of the sloppiest I can remember, as you'll read in my review. The only saving grace: So many deserving people and shows won, including "30 Rock," Terry O'Quinn for "Lost," and (finally!) the writers of "Late Night with Conan O'Brien."

Here's a full list of winners. I'll be discussing the Emmys today with Chip Franklin and Paul Harris  (see below for times).
