hollywood.com— The Emmy producers have decided against airing the announcement of the nominees and then the winner of the late night category. Are you f**king kidding me?

I don't understand why people are so obsessed with Conan... I don't find him funny at all.. all he does is weird faces and noises.. it's just stupid comedy.. Comment is buried, click here to see the rest.
FTA:
"According to a TV Academy spokesperson, before last year's Emmys, the Academy and the guilds agreed that the writing and directing categories for outstanding variety, musical or comedy (or "VCM") series would alternate each year from the primetime telecast to cut down on the show's length. Last year, the VCM writing/directing series slots were in the CBS telecast; this year they will move to the Creative Arts Awards, which will also be televised, on Saturday, Aug. 21.
So, yes, the winner for outstanding VCM writing will not be presented live in primetime Emmys, a category for which O'Brien's "Tonight Show" is nominated. But, the overall outstanding VCM series category (the big one, in other words) for which O'Brien is nominated, the one that drew all the headlines when the Emmy nominations were announced ... that is IN the Emmy telecast. "
Dammit. And I wanted to watch the Emmy's this year (I'm thinking NPH will actually win something this time around) don't tell me I'm going to have to boycott on principle?
The intelligence of Team Coco is on full display here. Let's quickly comment on F**k NBC or Jay Leno after spending 3 secs reading the headline.
No one cares about the fact that only the WRITING category will not being telecast, the main category that he is nominated WILL be televised... and that it's probably decided and scheduled years ago... LOL

Well look it this way, it must be confirmation that because it won't be televised, he won.

Just when you think NBC can't go any lower they go even lower.
