Scattered thoughts :

 

Hate when people from my shows win but they are all the wrong people!

 

GH avenging the time Y&R won for KSJ's tribute (which actually was better).

 

Stafford and Phyllis are basically the same person now and it's unsettling. She was right that Finola is the best in that category!

 

Similarly, Laura Wright is super annoying the way she shot out of her seat like she personally won. And just in general.

 

Surprised only the GH direction team mentioned Johnny Wactor. Also, they seem to have deliberately muted all applause during the memorial segment.

 

Kind of surprised Nicholas Chavez was there.

 

Lovely tribute to MTS and her husband (all clips from recent nostalgia episodes but beautifully scored with classic cues) and great speech. I did not hear her thank JG and I loved that. All the ladies from Y&R looked so much better in that segment than on the show.

 

The most intriguing thing of the night was that line about "missing in action Chris van Etten" during the GH writing award.

Hey everyone, I don't want to be spoiled, but is there a replay link available to watch the Emmys? I can't find it anywhere else. I know that sounds dumb but I didn't realize they don't do replays on YoutubeTV and Paramount Plus unless none are available yet.

I spoiled myself anyway and of course glad to say I didn't miss much...LOL. Rolling my eyes at GH's 4th win in a row and FV....

It's shocking that Kelly Clarkson actually showed up this year! I've always been a fan of her's but I had wondered in the past if even she wasn't interested in these award shows, as humble as she usually is.

I watched it. Yawn. 

An absolute snooze aside from the MTS and Ed Scott Lifetime Achievement Award, which I really enjoyed, and the clip package was lovingly done and clearly by someone not affiliated with NATAS.

There's no production value, no stakes, and no fans present, which sucks all the air out of the room.

    • Wasn't there talk of them bringing back Rita as Gus' mother at one point? Or something?
    • I think they are a part of the same family, although Carla was never really scheming for the same reasons, and once her double life was exposed, she stopped. 
    • Rachel/Ada, Mona/Erica, a mother/daughter at LOVING, these are all examples of the Agnes Nixon "troublesome daughter/put upon mother" trope. Are Carla/Sadie by any chance one of the pairs that make up this trope? Another thing that these 2 shows might have in common. OLTL had a very strong thematic approach to socioeconomic differences between groups of people. Class differences. AW at an earlier point had this too but to be clear it was not as much as OLTL. So that is a similarity but marginal.  Besides that, I see no other comparable things. Paul Rauch was a very different EP at different shows. Oh, I've thought of one more thing. Using actors from the Broadway stage.  But, realistically that was something all of the NY shows had in common. So I don't think it has any uniqueness between AW & OLTL.  
    • When you look at the period between Sweeps, it's as if they tried to maintain a kind of pace where they had a lot of plates spinning in the air & on their fingertips & the whole goal was nothing but to not drop any of those plates. A version of spinning one's wheels. They're not getting anywhere but they give the appearance of a whole lot of activity. I believe it's all about this appearance. At moments they accidentally hit a chord & something resonates but it is a false event.

    • I’m not speculating anything, but I admit, I’m getting a little worried about James Reynolds. 
    • I feel like this is what they're doing by creating lots of storylines but their biggest weakness for years is the inability to properly pace these stories and give resolution. A good example now would be the Gio story which has been simmering for months with very little movement. I went from not caring to being invested to not caring again because of how long it's taking for the secret to be revealed. One story like that would be fine but it seems like everything moves at this snails pace on GH. They need to do a better job of rotating the stories so everything isn't in that same treading water phase.
    • However, those of us who watch DAYS have been spoiled. On Peacock there are no preemptions. Not for anything & not in or about any show.  I read somewhere that we Baby Boomers in a way invented instant gratification but then we realized that it was not fast enough.
    • The title track from the follow-up album Hot On the Trail is also co-written by Val Jean:
