Conan vs Jon Stewart wank.... Emmys are so unfair!
The Emmy Awards are now over, and now we can prepare for the wank. Tonight's challengers: the cheated Conan O'Brien fans vs the Daily Show.


The first of many posts are made on the Conan eljay community regarding how the fans felt cheated.

The highlights:
Conan's Hed iz pastede on yey!

Conan is crying!

Oh Noes!!1 Conan should have gotten it (posted on The Daily Show)

I love it when it gets spoiled for the west coast!

Edit at 226am pacific time:
Is this a sane Conan fan, or someone still in shock? -- I honestly think s/he means well, but this will only create more wank because s/he is trying to be the 'voice of reason'. (It's a locked comment, but seriously, joining the community to read it is so worth it)

"Simply put - they technically vote based on 2 episodes of the show... they don't watch every night like we do. and I personally believe that Daily Show can easily pull two episodes that (with the guest included) are beginning to end non-stop funy. Complete laughter. Conan simply can't do that. Even if he has a particularly funny interview, there's still serious talk, serious movie promotion, long stories - for two guests - then you need either an amazing musical act or a really funny comedian to bring the last 10 minutes to an up. Conan is an hourlong show and even when his monologue is the best monologue ever and the opening bit is a hillarious remote or great Clutch Cargo, that's virtually out of memory by the time they've watched 2 interviews, musical guest and the end credits start rolling"




It's still wanking. It's beautiful. Maybe it'll come to a climax soon and we can watch it explode all over the screens.

(Okay blatantly stolen from Stephen Colbert, but what can I do?)

We get everything? Dude! I won an Emmy? Awesome.

Bodypolitik is truly a hero in wank. Not a major hero, but a small one. Either way, his/her comment made me smile.

Also!

* One of my favorite parts was the photoshopped image. I like how the original has Jon Steward looking very smug, with the edit having Conan looking very happy and elated. That just adds a certain something to this.

* Is is wrong that I expected a Conan O'Brian version of that 9/11 painting (the one with the bald eagle crying over the twin towers) for the third link?

For some reason, my favorite part was the girl who thought the Emmys might have been doing a tribute to Carson Daly.

What was that movie where one of the characters was freakishly obsessed with Conan O'Brien and everything she did revolved around him or was related to him in some way?

Yeah, conansgoddess reminds me of that and it SCARES ME.



I love you, Jon.

I know there's a joke to be had in the comment from the 'naive' girl who doesn't understand timezones - something about not being 'worldly' enough - but damned if I'm clever enough to come up with it.

What is with the people complaining that it's not fair for the Daily Show to win every year? Um, if the show is better every year, it's fair. The Emmys are not kindergarten, where everyone shares and takes turns.

OT: incipient wank wank

Something from the HP fandom. This post (http://www.livejournal.com/community/hpsmart/119948.html) by vladpryde at hpsmart has been edited. Its first version was a plug for his new community, fuck_buds. Since this had nothing to do with HP art, the hpsmart people told him to quit spamming and stop using his not-work-safe wank icon (http://www.livejournal.com/userpic/35014641/7704287).

Going by the level of passive-aggressive cluelessly snitty defensiveness in his responses, vladpryde is a wanker to watch.

Oh, come on now. Choosing between Conan and Jon is darned near impossible! Can't we all just lust after both of their big, juicy, chess club brains and get on with our lives?

I wanted TDS to win a little more than Conan, but I will say I watched the writer nominations for Conan O'Brien twice ("Conan Christopher O'Brien"), both times in hysterics.

Conan's a funny guy and his show is good, but The Daily Show turned completely fuckin' awesome in 2000 and has kept getting better since then. What the hell ever happened to "it was an honor to be nominated?" Losing to The Daily Show isn't exactly a grievous insult, folks.

So, in conclusion, people actually care about the Emmys?

Not terribly wanky, though interesting.

Wank aside, what I thought funny about the Emmy's was with all the talk show luve going around (Dave gives props to Carson, Jon gives props to Dave, Conan does a good bit, Maher gets some love, hey, even Fergesen shows up)... where the hell was Jay Leno? Sulking in his batcave?

Nothing against Conan (he's okay), but The Daily Show really is better. Besides, it's just the Emmys anyway. Hardly worth wanking over.

And this is random, but am I the only one who's actually never seen Desperate Housewives or wanted to?

There are certain Emmy disasters traditions that one can count on happening just about every time:

1. A long-running show in its last year will win awards, even if the other nominees are better.

2. An actor/actress that moves to TV from films will automatically receive a nomination, and often win.

3. An actor/actress that plays a role that is completely different from their usual style will win, even if the performance is excruciating.

4. At least five shows/performers will lose, even though they deserved to win. At least one win will be a complete WTF! moment. That doesn't even factor in the dozen or so shows/performances that didn't even get nominated.

5. There will be at least fifteen dresses that totally suck, two or three of which will barely meet FTC standards.
