3 Reasons Why I Will be Watching the Emmys This Year

1) How I Met Your Mother scored a nomination for Outstanding Comedy Series!
Maybe it was Britney's guest stints. Maybe it was the increasingly hilarious jokes continually reinforced through the episodes (Sven? Slap bet?). Maybe it was the true-to-heart story-lines, from getting your heart broken at the altar (oops, spoiler) to babying today's generation of kids Maybe it's because this show just freakin' rules.

Friends had to build a following at the start and now, it's... Friends. I have no doubt Mother will follow suit(up). I can't wait until the day where it's... Mother.

2) Double Trouble: Neil Patrick Harris is host and nominee!
The reason why I still laugh when I watch on TV, (and not because it's reality TV, which I find a joke gone wrong, even though he does joke... you get what I mean.)

And the joking has already begun! Look at what he replied in regards to his nom:
"Being asked to host the show—terrific. Getting a third nomination—fantastic. Having the ability to scribble my name in the envelope backstage when no one is looking—priceless"."
3) 30 Rock scored the most nominations ever for a comedy series with a whopping 22 Emmy nods.
I've already declared my love for this show many moons ago but it's nice to see this constant underdog go through puberty and end up the star quarterback on the football team who's won 22 championships, no less. Liz Lemon FTW!

The 61st Primetime Emmy Awards will be broadcast live on September 20 on CBS.

How I Met "Crack"

Considering how much I love How I Met Your Mother and how often I watch the show, expect this post title to come up somewhat regularly from now on.

In Season 4, Episode 20 of HIMYM, "Mosbius Design," half of the episode storyline was devoted to Barney and Marshall devising ways for Marshall to have a "thing" in order to keep his job. That "thing" that will make him be known as some sort of "guy" and keep him from getting laid off. In a hilarious montage moment, they started listing all the guys with "things." There's the "food guy," the "Youtube guy" and even the disturbing "backrub guy" (ugh).

Given my previous worries, I started wondering what kind of a "thing" I could develop. What could be my secret weapon?

I think I found my "thing."

"CRACK girl."
