Americans are Emmy Stupid
So, I was watching The Emmy Awards live on Fox8 earlier today. Conan O'Brien hosted, so it was immediately the best awards show ever. Even better than those fake, unfunny awards people give out at Year 12 Formals. I still can't believe I missed out on Most Likely To Become A Carrot. Hilarious.
Anyway, Jack Bauer won an Emmy for Best Actor in a Drama, and 24 won for Best Fucking Television Show Ever, so that's all good. West Wing tied Hill Street Blues for most Emmys won by a single show, Ari from Entourage won and Jennifer Love-Hewitt wore a low cut dress, so you can't really go wrong.
Unless, of course, you're an idiot.
Yesterday, 49 people died when a small airliner crashed in Kentucky. At the start of the Emmys, Conan O'Brien did one of those 'host visits tv show set' skits, interacting with the people from The Office, Dr. House, Dateline and yes, Lost. Lost features a plane crash. Conan crashed onto the Lost island, in a plane.
So, of course, Conan was making fun of dead people. News sites around America scrambled to blame NBC and Conan for this horrible crime.
RANDOM EMOTION: CAPITAL LETTERS MEANS IT'S IMPORTANT
In light of this news, and the tragic events of September the 11th, 2001, television shows will no longer feature buildings. The London bombings a year ago have brought an end to production of Law and Order: Train Fine Unit, and Gambit will not be in the next X-Men movie, because he's a Cajun and New Orleans got hit by a hurricane. And Storm won't be in it either. Not because she uses hurricanes as weapons, but because she's shit.
Yes, 49 people died in Kentucky yesterday. It's terribly sad, I feel sorry for everyone involved, but leave Conan out of it.
Take that, America
