Eric Stonestreet Wins Best Support Actor in a Comedy for MODERN FAMILY (Video)

When the first award of the night was handed out, I just knew it was going to be a great show. Eric Stonestreet, who plays Cameron on MODERN FAMILY, took home the Emmy for Best Support Actor in a Comedy Series.

For me, this was by far the toughest category. Stonestreet was was up against his fellow MODERN FAMILY co-stars, Ty Burell & Jesse Tyler Ferguson, as well as Neil Patrick Harris from HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER and Chris Colfer from GLEE. (Oh and Jon Cryer from TWO AND A HALF MEN…but come on.)

Stonestreet’s on-screen hubby wasn’t the only one tearing up when Eric won.

A tough category, but I’m really excited for Eric! (There’s always next year my little Chris Colfer.)

Sure, the COMMUNITY gang wasn’t actually nominated for any Emmys this year, but that wasn’t going to stop them from coming to the show.

In the following clips, the cast takes a road trip to the big event, bringing some snacks and playing the sure-to-be-huge car game “seatfiller.”

FRINGE’s John Noble on His ‘Disappointing’ Emmy Snub and Season 3

Despite our passionate pleas, one name that won’t be called out during tonight’s Emmy broadcast is that of FRINGE star, John Noble.

Yeah, I’m still bitter about that.

And while Noble himself isn’t bitter, he told me he was disappointed that he wasn’t among the nominees.

Sigh. Bad Emmy voters.

Thankfully, it seems like Noble will have a ton of Emmy-worthy scenes in the upcoming third season of FRINGE, so here’s hoping they don’t ignore him next year.

But what did he spill about the new season?

Check it out…

PARENTHOOD: Two New Clips from Season 2

Behind the scenes at GIVE ME MY REMOTE, we are huge fans of NBC’s PARENTHOOD. If you listen to Kath’s TV Talk Podcast, follow Korbi’s scoops on the show’s cast, or read my reviews from Season One, it comes as no surprise that we are part of Team Braverman.

Since I started teaching two weeks ago, my e-mail inbox has been woefully neglected. It is unfair to my friends planning get-togethers and to spam marketers offering me the financial opportunity of a lifetime. Shaping young minds requires sacrifice, and I had to set those invitations aside.

However, when the subject line of a message says, “New Parenthood Promos,” grading and lesson planning has to take a back seat. I set aside my grade book and red pen, and rushed to share these clips with GMMR readers.

Please enjoy these two new sneak peeks at Season 2:

MODERN FAMILY’s Steve Levitan on the Emmys and Season 2

A kiss is just a kiss…unless you’re MODERN FAMILY.

When fans noticed that Cam and Mitchell — a long-term couple and the fathers of baby Lily — had yet to share an onscreen smooch, they wondered if their sexual orientation was playing into the lack of onscreen affection.

No matter the reason for the lack of smoochage, Cam and Mitchell will be sharing a kiss this season — a storyline that was already in place before the fuss had even started.

“One could argue that is a thing, that that’s a significant thing,” Levitan says. “It’s something we had planned the story for like six months or more. We talked about it several times last season and it’s a story that will not be what people expect. But the whole episode deals with the power of a kiss.”

The power of a kiss just for Cam and Mitchell or could perhaps a few of the kids be involved as well?

“There are many people involved in these various kisses,” he teases. “And you will have to tune in to find out.”

Oh, we will.

So why has Levitan been spent the past week partying it up? Take a look…

LOST’s Damon Lindelof: ‘When You Aspire to Be Something Special, You Are Going to Polarize People’

What the heck was that sideways world?

An alternate reality where Oceanic 815 never crashed?

Heaven?

A dream?

Viewers didn’t get a straight answer, per say, but we do know what was revealed by Christian Shephard in the series finale in May. According to Jack’s dad, the sideways world was actually a place the survivors of 815 created so they could reunite with each other after they had passed away.

But in the days following the finale, many fans took the sideways world reveal to mean that the passengers of flight 815 had been dead all along.

So what did LOST co-creator Damon Lindelof think about the lingering debate about the series finale?

“It’s impossible to get frustrated about that, because one of the wonderful things about LOST is that there’s this interpretive quality to it,” Lindelof says in the video below. “And it would be sort of tantamount to us coming down from the mountaintop and saying, ‘Your theory is wrong.’ It never felt right. The show is different things to different people and we obviously intended it in a certain way so that if Jack asks Christian in that final scene, ‘But is it all real?’ and he says, Yes, it’s all real, everything that happened to you is totally real, your perception of what reality is entirely subject to — and the fact that those debates are going to rage and rage and rage is sort of a wonderful thing.”

“It’s frustrating, obviously, we would love it if everybody saw the show in one way and that way was they loved it uncategorically,” he continues. “But if you go back and you look at THE SOPRANOS ending — which I personally thought was brilliant and other people thought was a cop-out — when you aspire to be something special, you are going to polarize people. That’s the price of doing business, as they say.”

Well said.

Check out the video below for more from Lindelof, including his thoughts on the LOST auction and what’s up next for him…
