For Better or Werts : TV Worth Watching

EMMYS: Everybody great ever on TV

In case you missed last night's Emmy Awards -- and really, the final game at Yankee Stadium on ESPN was a much more exciting place to be -- ABC.com has a clip of key acceptance speeches on its Emmys web page.

There's also the Thank You Cam into which the winners babbled backstage about their triumph. (And we do mean babble.)

But best of all, there's a 60th-year Emmys celebratory collage of great characters from throughout TV history -- complete with a key to identifying them, since there are more than 400 faces included.

Good luck!

Re: the Emmy's. I thought the whole program stunk (out loud). What a waste of time it was to sit there for 3 hours listening to a bunch of babble from the winners. (Actually, I DVR'd it, and am I glad I did).

I'm soooo annoyed that Kyra Sedgewick didn't win for "The Closer". I don't like the idea AT ALL that (Paid) cable programs are clumped in with regular programming. Not everyone subscribes to HBO and/or SHO. Plus, Kyra does a great job on the show and her whole cast is wonderful!

Diane Werts has been glued to the tube since she can remember, growing up in a household where the TV came on first thing in the morning and stayed on till bedtime and beyond. She worked for the USA Film Festival, then for The Dallas Morning News writing about everything from Shakespeare to macrame art to rock music (and has the hearing loss to prove it). She moved to New York's Newsday to edit their glossy TV magazine, then returned to writing about television, specializing in its stranger permutations. She's a past president of the Television Critics Association.
