    Seems like he decided not to give his former employers the satisfaction...

    I'm sure if Fox was at risk at being made fun of - they'd let it ride. Right? But jeez, Chuck, lighten up. Enjoy the 15 rating Monday. It will be the last.

    I'm guessing Sheen has been wondering why his phone hasn't been ringing lately.

    I know Chuck isn't exactly worried about money with two current shows in syndication and another that's doing very well, but he's is every bit as much to blame for the way they whole thing with Sheen went down as Charlie was himself.

    Worst case scenario: The get two years out of Kutcher. Even if it's the worst move ever, they're not going to cancel a show that is already in syndication after one more year. Look at all the shows like According to Jim and Yes, Dear that were dragged along for extra seasons once they hit the syndication jackpot.

    The guy on Grantland pretty much panned the whole thing, from the "Emmy-Tones" group to the In Memorium segment to Jim Parsons' victory to the voice-overs for the winners as they approached the stage.

    The ONLY thing I agreed with was the voice-overs. Somebody was trying to be too cool.

    Emmy ratings aren't too strong. At least, they haven't been since Fox started airing the show. Football last night more than doubled the A18-49 rating the Emmy's garnered.

    I've never seen Sofia Vergara look better.
    I hadn't realized that Claire Danes was so attractive.

    She was underrated beautiful on "My So-Called Life," and has gotten steadily more beautiful since.

    I gave "Mike and Molly" a couple of shots early in the season. Unless the writing and acting drastically improved, no reason why Sookie deserved the award.

    And Julie Bowen -- eat something.

    The wife and I watched the show last night. When Kate Winslet won, my wife commented that if her boobs popped out of her dress, FOX wouldn't have to censor it because everyone has seen them anyway.
    A quick discussion on the most seen actress boobs in a movie began. My wife concluded that between Titanic, The Reader, Little Children, etc. it would be tough to top Ms. Winslet.
    My only response was that people only saw Monster's Ball and Swordfish to see Halle Berry topless.

    Marisa Tomei isn't a lifetime leader, but if she continues her rate of the past three years ...
