So who watched it tonight, and what did you think of it? I thought it was actually pretty good. I will definitely be watching it again tomorrow night (actually taping it because it clashes with One Tree Hill:mad: ). I am interested to see where the story line goes. I also like the theme song:cool:!

By the way - The Pilot Eppy (shown) was Amber Tamblyn's EMMY Submission.

How she lost to Allison Janney is beyond me.

(Joan Of Arcadia came as one of the biggest shocks in Emmy history when it got nominated for Drama Series in its first year)

Great episode, and Amber was a standout. Nothing Brilliant, but really good tv.

Allison fucking Janney always gets the Emmy. I admire her work, but seriously the West Wing is old, the academy should just get the fuck over it and stop giving it so much awards.

Yeah, I thought it was pretty good - certainly got me tuning in tonight.

That fucktart isnt losing and I'm now going to predict her to win every year until the show ends.

This wasnt even one of Ambers strongest episode! Wasnt even her top 10!

FYI - The reason that Allison Janney is going to win the emmy again, is because she is going to submit the episode that will come up where CJ has to take her Dad off life support. If she doesnt submit that, she wants Mariska to win.

I remember last year, NOBODY was going to beat Edie Falco for the Sopranos submitting 'Whitecaps' - one of the best performances in history. The year before was a huge shock, when she beat out both Six Feet Under girls, AND Jennifer Garners 90 minute powerhouse Pilot episode ("Truth Be Told") for Alias.

Grr.

i think this show is awful. The only redeeming thing is amber tamblyn, but that alone wont make me tune in.
