Hollywood was awake bright and very early today to find out which actors and TV shows were given Emmy Award nominations and, for the most part, it was business as usual … perennial Emmy faves Mad Men and Modern Family walked away with the most nominations this year. But there are a few newcomers to the Emmy nomination game … The Killing, Mike & Molly, Justified and Game of Thrones to name just a few. Click below to see which TV shows and actors scored Emmy noms this morning.

Last night at the Nokia Theater in downtown Los Angeles, CA the 62nd annual Primetime Emmy Awards were handed out on LIVE TV in a telecast that offered some entertainment, lots of surprises and a bit of disappointment. Here are a few photos of some of the attendees of last night’s Emmy Awards as they made their grand arrivals on the red carpet:

As for the show itself, well, overall I was a bit underwhelmed by what we were given. I thought Jimmy Fallon did a fairly good job as host but much of the show was tedious and annoying. The announcer who wouldn’t shut up as the night progressed really got on my nerves. They need to get rid of him, like, seriously. I really enjoyed Jimmy‘s musical interludes and I really enjoyed the show’s Glee-themed opening number. In case you missed it or just want to watch it again, you can do so after the jump …

Today’s the big day! The 62nd annual Primetime Emmy Awards, which honors the best in television arts and sciences, will air LIVE tonight on NBC at 8PM ET, 5PM ET. But, before the big show takes place tonight there was a whole lotta rehearsin’ going on at the Nokia Theater in downtown LA yesterday afternoon. Here are a few photos of some of the celebrity presenters rehearsing their stage cues yesterday along with some deets from inside the theater about what went down:

It was all laughs on the Nokia Theatre stage Saturday afternoon during rehearsals for Sunday’s show. Ricky Gervais, dressed casually in a T-shirt and track pants, poured on the comedy when comparing the Emmys with the Golden Globes, the more loose, party-like ceremony he hosted earlier this year and is slated to emcee again in 2011. “What’s wrong with having a little beer?” he asked. A smiley Neil Patrick Harris, who hosted the Emmys last year, greeted executive producer Don Mischer in the makeshift control room erected in the audience by yelling “Cut to commercial! Cut to commercial!” Harris later practiced his outstanding lead actress in a comedy series introduction, which features Harris poking fun at new host Jimmy Fallon. Jim Parsons from “The Big Bang Theory” and Sofia Vergara from “Modern Family” giggled their way through their bit, cracking up when she pronounced “Big Bang” in her thick Colombian accent. Keri Russell also joked around with Will Arnett, who mockingly booed when stand-ins for “American Idol” producers practiced accepting the competitive reality series Emmy.

Additionally, Deadline Hollywood claims to have the skinny on how Emmy host Jimmy Fallon plans to open tonight’s show. In order to keep the spoilery information out of sight for those of you who want to be surprised, I put the juicy deets behind the cut. For those of you who just can’t wait and gotta know what Jimmy‘s plan is — you can read all about it, after the jump …

We are just 2 days away from the big 62nd annual Primetime Emmy Awards set to air LIVE on NBC Sunday night at 8PM ET, 5PM PT. All week long we’ve been keeping up with Emmy host Jimmy Fallon and his preparations for the show … but today we learn about which of the A-List TV celebs will be presenting awards this Sunday night. True Blood superstars and newlyweds Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer have been announced as presenters … as have Glee‘s Matthew Morrison, 30 Rock‘s Tina Fey, The Office‘s John Krasinski among others. Read on to find out who else will be handing out Emmy trophies during the live telecast this weekend:

Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer have signed on as presenters for the 62nd Primetime Emmy Awards show in Los Angeles, organizers said. The newlywed couple’s “True Blood” co-star Alexander Skarsgard has also been booked for Sunday’s event honoring the season’s best in television. The trio joins previously announced presenters Will Arnett, Stephen Colbert, Edie Falco, Tina Fey, Laurence Fishburne, Ricky Gervais, Jon Hamm, January Jones, John Krasinski, LL Cool J, Julianna Margulies, Joel McHale, Matthew Morrison, Eva Longoria Parker, Jim Parsons, Matthew Perry, Keri Russell, Blair Underwood and Sofia Vergara.

The last batch of Emmys presenters is unveiled and it includes nominees Claire Danes and Ted Danson. The former is up for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Miniseries or a Movie for her role in “Temple Grandin” while the latter has lost to “Dexter” star John Lithgow in the category of Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series. Joining Danes and Danson in the presenters list are fellow nominee Mariska Hargitay, Emily Deschanel, Nathan Fillion, Christopher Meloni, Lauren Graham, Tom Selleck, Maura Tierney and “Undercovers” couple Boris Kodjoe and Gugu Mbatha-Raw. This string of stars complete the line-up who will take duties on the August 29 ceremony. The show will be broadcast live on NBC from the Nokia Theatre at 5 P.M. PDT.

Remember … Jimmy Fallon is asking for YOUR tweets to help him introduce some of these Emmy Awards presenters. You send in some witty intro about the scheduled presenters and he will read the best ones as he introduces them during the show. I’m sure many of y’all can think of very clever things to say about Anna Paquin, Stephen Moyer, LL Cool J et al. Also, if YOU are hosting or attending an Emmy party this weekend make sure you take lots of pics and then send them in for posting here on the blog! The Emmy Awards only come once a year … let’s make the most of it and have a blast!

We are just a few days away from the live telecast of the 62nd annual Primetime Emmy Awards and that means that the folks putting together the show are in the final stretch of preparations for the big to do. As you should be well aware, Jimmy Fallon will be hosting the Emmys this year and he shared with the LA Times a bit of info about some of the preparations that he is doing for this Sunday night’s show:

The Emmy Awards may be less than a week away, but Jimmy Fallon has yet to lose his cool over hosting Sunday’s 62nd annual prime-time event. “We’re getting the final touches on the opening thing that we’re doing. It’s really fun,” Fallon told us … “I’m at the Nokia Theater all day long now, from now until the Emmys. Just getting ready. It’s a long process, a lot of rehearsals, stuff like that” … Fallon was disappointingly tight-lipped about what audiences can expect from this year’s telecast, saying only that a lot of our “favorite TV stars” will be “helping him out” during the show’s opening segment. He also would not reveal which nominees he was rooting for. But he did make one thing clear — the Emmys won’t share many similarities with his late night talk show. “There’s no Roots, sadly. The Roots didn’t come with me from New York. Kind of miss them,” he said, referring to his show’s band. “I think if it’s too much me, it takes away from the fun of the Emmys. My job as a host is to keep moving fast and to let the other people shine, the nominees. Make it a fun night for everybody.”

You know, I really love Jimmy Fallon. Not only is he always funny but he really strikes me as a really kind, really down to Earth guy. My friend Tony and I were at the live taping of America’s Got Talent last night to watch Kylie Minogue perform her new single Get Out Of My Way yesterday afternoon and Jimmy came out to do a short bit for the show as well. He was really funny, yes, but he was also very kind to the audience yesterday. I can’t wait to watch him host the Emmys this Sunday night. After the jump, check out a short video of Jimmy‘s impromptu interview with the LA Times …

Jimmy Fallon, host of the 62nd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards, was joined by Television Academy President John Shaffner and Emmy Awards Executive Producer Don Mischer at the Nokia Theatre in downtown Los Angeles just moments ago to officially roll out the red carpet for this weekend’s awards show. Here are a few photos from this morning’s red carpet unveiling event:

I understand that this is the first time an Emmy host has presided over the red carpet unveiling but it’s totally unsurprising that Jimmy would want to be a part of such a fun event. Yesterday we learned that Jimmy is asking YOU to send your tweets so that he can read them live on air and today he’s rolling up his sleeves to roll out the red carpet for the Emmy Awards. I have a feeling that his hosting job this weekend is going to be really fun. While I’m very excited to watch this year, I simply cannot believe we’re already moving into awards season again … can you? Remember the 2010 Emmy Awards air LIVE on NBC this Sunday night at 8PM ET and 5PM PT. Be there or be square.

Jimmy Fallon, host of the 62nd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards which will air this Sunday night on NBC, is asking for YOUR tweets to help him introduce Emmy Award presenters during the upcoming telecast this weekend. Jimmy is asking that YOU send in clever tweet introductions for 15 of this year’s presenters and he will read the best ones on air during the show:

Jimmy Fallon wants your tweet to be part of the Emmy Awards. Fallon, who’s hosting the ceremony on NBC, said the public will be able to submit an introduction through Twitter for up to 15 Emmy presenters, or about half the celebrities who will be handing out trophies. He’ll read the best tweet as each star comes on stage. Starting Wednesday, a list of the presenters involved will be posted at NBC’s website, along with a Twitter link to enter suggested introductions. Previously announced presenters include nominees Matthew Morrison of “Glee” and Jon Hamm and January Jones of “Mad Men.” For example, Fallon said, he’ll announce the chosen tweet, user name included: “@blahblahblah says Jon Hamm is the hottest guy of all time. Here he is, Jon Hamm,” NBC’s “Late Night” host riffed. The Emmys air live Sunday, Aug. 29, at 8 p.m. EDT, from the downtown Nokia Theatre. The planned three-hour ceremony will be live at 5 p.m. on the West Coast and repeated at its conclusion.

Now I know that there are a LOT of clever folks out there so I think you should come up with your best tweets and submit them. How awesome would it be if a Pink reader managed to get their tweet read by Jimmy Fallon live on the air during the Emmy Awards telecast? Altho the full list of presenters won’t be revealed until tomorrow, I think it might be wise to draft a few tweets in preparation. This is your chance to be part of the Emmys, how fun is that?

Hollywood got up bright and early today to announce the nominations for the 2010 Emmy Awards which will honor the best television shows and performances of the past year. The big surprise (but is it really a surprise?) was that newcomer Glee walked away with the most noms this year … pulling in 19 nominations for the show and its lead performers. Mad Men, a fave of Emmy voters, came in second with 17 nominations. Another Emmy fave, 30 Rock, managed to secure 15 noms and another newcomer, Modern Family, nabbed 14. But in my opinion, the coolest nom came for Conan O’Brien who was nominated for his short run as host of The Tonight Show (and unsurprisingly no nomination was given to Jay Leno for his failed Jay Leno Show) Here is a rundown of which other shows and performers were awoken today with the good Emmy Award news:

It was a “Glee”-ful morning. The Fox phenomenon about a high school glee club scored 19 Emmy nominations Thursday morning — the most of any series — including best comedy series and acting nods for Lea Michele, Matthew Morrison, Jane Lynch and Chris Colfer. It wasn’t the only freshman show to catch the eye of the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. ABC’s comedy “Modern Family,” about a delightfully dysfunctional clan, earned 14 nominations. Among them: best comedy series, writing, directing and several best supporting actor and actress nominations, including one for Sofia Vergara, who along with “Community” star Joel McHale helped to announce the nominations. CBS’ “The Good Wife” picked up nine nominations after its first season, including best dramatic series and best actress for Julianna Margulies. There was also a fond farewell to ABC drama series “Lost.” It had a particularly strong showing, earning nominations in several categories, including best dramatic series and a best-actor nod for Matthew Fox. Two other outgoing shows didn’t have quite the sendoff. Fox’s “24″ managed just five nominations, and NBC’s long-running “Law & Order” is going away empty-handed. There’s also no sign that AMC’s period drama “Mad Men” and NBC’s comedy series “30 Rock” are getting old. “Mad Men,” the winner of best dramatic series for the last two years earned 17 nominations, including best drama series and acting nominations for Jon Hamm and January Jones, as well as writing and directing. And “30 Rock,” which has won best comedy series for the last three seasons, garnered 15 nominations, including best comedy series and acting nods for Alec Baldwin and Tina Fey, among others, as well as writing and directing. Somewhere, Conan O’Brien was cackling: The Academy of Television Arts & Sciences jumped on the Team Coco bandwagon, nominating the short-lived “The Tonight Show With Conan O’Brien” in the category of best variety, music or comedy series, snubbing Jay Leno. O’Brien’s “Tonight Show” also was nominated in three other categories, no thanks to NBC, which did not campaign for him … To those wags who think NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” is past its late-night prime, here’s this: The comedy variety series earned 12 nominations, making for a grand total of 126 nominations since it started in 1975. In doing so, it has now surpassed NBC’s “ER” – which earned 124 during its lifespan — as the most-nominated television show in Emmy history. As usual, HBO dominated the nominations. The pay channel pulled in 101, two more than last year’s haul. Leading the way was ambitious 10-part World War II miniseries “The Pacific” — produced by Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks — with 24 of those nominations. (By contrast, the network with the next-highest haul was ABC, with 63 nominations. HBO’s network rival, Showtime, earned 23 nominations.) Although there was a lot of young talent nominated Thursday, several veterans earned some shout-outs, including Eli Wallach, 94, for a guest role on “Nurse Jackie,” as well as Robert Morse for “Mad Men,” Sissy Spacek for “Big Love,” Shirley Jones for “The Cleaner,” Maggie Smith for “Capturing Mary,” Judi Dench for “Return to Cranford,” Lily Tomlin for “Damages,” Elaine Stritch for “30 Rock,” Ann-Margret for “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit,” Brenda Vaccaro for “You Don’t Know Jack” and last, but not least, the red-hot Betty White for her turn hosting “Saturday Night Live.” The 62nd Primetime Emmy Awards will air live coast to coast on Aug. 29 on NBC at the Nokia Theatre in downtown Los Angeles.

While I’m bummed that 24 didn’t get a bit more love from the Emmy noms this year, I’m not really surprised … the show was never an awards darling. I hope it will managed to win a few of their 5 nominations … that would be a nice send off, I think. The fact that Lost secured 12 noms isn’t at all surprising, the show was a big hit … it’s bound to get some sort of reasonable send off. Altho I’m not a Law & Order fan, it’s a shame they got no love at all. As is the case usually with these awards show nominations, not everyone is going to agree … but overall, I’m pleased with the way the cookies crumbed this time around. Did any of your fave shows make a particularly strong showing with these noms today? Who are you rooting for?

Oh … and can you believe we’re already at the dawn of a new awards season? OY!

Last night the 2009 Primetime Emmy Awards were handed out in a lavish ceremony at the Nokia Theater at LA Live in downtown Los Angeles, CA which was broadcast on CBS. As I mentioned earlier, Neil Patrick Harris KILLED as Emmy host last night but the awards show was more than just about him (as hard to believe as that may be). Here are a few pictures from the red carpet arrivals at the 2009 Emmy Awards last night:

While there were a lot of pretty people on the red carpet (Alyson Hannigan looked amazing, as did Drew Barrymore) the real focus of the night was on who won what for which TV show. After the jump, check out some photos from the Emmy telecast itself, see some photos of the Emmy winners in the press room and find out who took home those coveted trophies at last night’s Emmy Awards …

The Internet phenom mini-musical/web series Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog, which managed to win a Hugo Award and a Creative Emmy Award this year, invaded the 2009 Primetime Emmy Awards which aired on CBS last night. Here are a few screencaps from the short Dr. Horrible invasion of the award show:

Just when you thought television was safe, Dr. Horrible took over. The doctor, a supervillain conceived by Joss Whedon and played by Emmys host Neil Patrick Harris for the Web series “Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog,” interrupted what would doubtless have been a fascinating explanation of how nominations are tabulated. Decrying “corporate entertainment” and even the awards’ “athletic and luminous host,” Horrible laid out a plan to take over television, but was quickly thwarted by nemesis Captain Hammer (Nathan Fillion). Sadly, contrary to previous reports, the short wasn’t a musical bit. The Internet series won the confusingly titled Short-Format Live-Action Special Class award at the Emmys’ Creative Arts ceremony, held separately from the televised event.

Yes, folks, Neil Patrick Harris — who hosted the Emmy Awards last night — also stars as Dr. Horrible and managed to make his role as Best.AwardsShow.Host. even funnier. In addition to this little invasion by Dr. Horrible, NPH also performed an amazing song titled Put Down the Remote to inspire viewers at home to stay tuned into the Emmy Awards show broadcast last night:

NPH really expanded on the amazing job he did hosting the Tony Awards earlier this year and really hit it out of the ballpark last night. After the jump, check out video of Dr. Horrible‘s invasion of the Emmy Awards and watch NPH‘s performance of Put Down the Remote …
