‘Family Guy‘ creator Seth MacFarlane has been on a roll lately thanks to his hosting turn on ‘SNL‘ and his summer box office hit ‘Ted.’ That all ended when he completely blew his presenting segment on the 2012 Emmy Awards.

Late-night show host Jimmy Kimmel hosted the 2012 Primetime Emmy Awards last night, and if you're wondering how he did... well, not great. There were a few semi-funny bits here and there, but for the most part, the presenters were more entertaining than he was.

2012 Emmy Awards: Kevin Costner Wins Outstanding Miniseries Lead for 'Hatfields & McCoys'

Nick Romano — Mon, 24 Sep 2012 10:00:47 +0000

'Hatfields & McCoys,' The History Channel's three-part, six-hour mini-series dramatizing one of the most famous blood feuds in American history, may not have taken home the 2012 Emmy Award for Outstanding Miniseries or Movie, but it can boast having the best lead actor in that category.

Kevin Costner, who portrayed Anse "Devil" Hatfield, took home the Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Miniseries. And if you didn't see his performance... well, as he said during his acceptance speech, "Thank god for TV reruns."

2012 Emmy Awards: Julie Bowen Snags Outstanding Supporting Actress for 'Modern Family'

Nick Romano — Mon, 24 Sep 2012 10:00:39 +0000

We knew 'Modern Family' would win something at the 2012 Emmy Awards. After all, the cast and crew pretty much dominated the Comedy Series, and Supporting Actor and Supporting Actress categories. But probably no one expected Julie Bowen, who plays Claire Dunphy on the show, to beat out both Kristen Wiig (and her many 'SNL' personalities) and the late Kathryn Joosten of 'Desperate Housewives' in the Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series category! But she did.

The 2012 Primetime Emmy Awards was a night filled with surprises, particularly when Julie Bowen of 'Modern Family' beat out Kristen Wiig for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy and when 'Homeland' trumped 'Mad Men' for Outstanding Drama Series.

Kevin Fitzpatrick — Mon, 24 Sep 2012 02:17:51 +0000

Well, don’t get too excited. Jessica Lange may have won the Outstanding Supporting Actress Emmy, but in the Mini-Series or Movie category, where FX managed to score 17 nominations for ‘American Horror Story.’ Some would argue that ‘American Horror Story’ isn’t quite a mini-series, but given the show’s nature of reinventing every year, the Ryan [...]
