Good for The Office and Steve Carell. And at least Hugh Laurie managed to get a TCA, if not an Emmy.

How does Grey's Anatomy win Program of the Year, and not Outstanding Drama?

The real question is: How does Grey's Anatomy win Program of the Year?

I'm more amused by the fact that Mary Lynn Rajskub hosted. :biggrin:

It took me a while to hate it, but I hate it all the more because it sucked me in so far in the beginning.

PASADENA, Calif. - Carol Burnett, accepting a Career Achievement Award from the Television Critics Association at its 22nd annual awards presentation, wasted no time Sunday in trying to extend her resume.

From the podium, she lobbied for a guest appearance on NBC's "The Office," which had won Outstanding Achievement in Comedy for both the series and for star Steve Carell.

The second the festivities were over, the "Office" workers surrounded Burnett to talk about her appearing on their show - as did the winners of Program of the Year, ABC's "Grey's Anatomy."


Blah, triple blah.

I freaking hate it when a fresh series comes out and all the old timers rush to try to glom onto it. There's a thousand washed up comedians and actors out there and they always try to get onto something that has proven itself fresh, dragging it down with them and making something different feel ordinary.

Sorry to sound bitter, but it's one of the things that pissed me off about Desperate Housewives this last season and now it looks like The Office is going in the same direction. :nonono:

Let's hope the people from The Office were just being polite. I don't really think they'll do any stunt casting.

Come on, it's Carol Burnett. It's not really stunt casting unless she's playing herself or parodying her image, a la most of the guests on Will & Grace. She can be Jim's mother, or something. Sounds good to me.

The Office's Steve Carell, who may be the funniest man on the planet, delivered a drop-dead acceptance speech of his own.

"This is obviously such a great honor, particularly in light of the following," said Carell, winner for individual achievement in comedy. He then read from "a review of a little-seen but little-loved television show called Over the Top, which ran from October 1997 to October 1997."

An excerpt from the review, which Carell quoted verbatim from Peter Ko on teevee.org:

"I could say that Carell is bad but that would imply I have some frame of reference to judge it. The truth is I've never seen anything like what I saw. I have stood in a freezer full of dead people in a morgue. I've seen a man's scalp pulled back over his nose. I've even seen 35 minutes of Ellen DeGeneres' Mr. Wrong. But let me say that until Steve Carell in Over the Top, I have never known true horror."
