EMMY AWARDS # 59
and we were not on the red carpet or
wondering around backstage with our
cameras, so not many pics, but here
are the winners...
NBC takes home 7 awards
HBO & ABC take home 6 awards each

With the specter of a
debilitating strike hanging over Hollywood, actors and other performers
used the awards ceremony to support television writers and to attack
network executives for taking screen time away from the people who
produce the work. Sally Field sent
the Fox network’s censors to the mute button — not for her antiwar
statements but for a vulgarity made when she remarked that her character
on “Brothers & Sisters” was a mother with a son headed for combat in
Iraq. If mothers ruled the world, she said in essence, there would be no
wars.
Among the multiple winners, “Broken
Trail,” a cowboy saga on the AMC cable channel, won for best mini-series
and took two additional awards for acting. Robert Duvall won for lead
actor in a mini-series or movie for “Broken Trail” and Thomas Haden
Church won for supporting actor for that mini-series.
