    • Quotes

      Himself - Host & Nominated: Outstanding Writing for a Variety Series and Outstanding Variety Talk Series: Welcome to the 69th Emmy Awards. I'm your host, Stephen Colbert. This...

      [applause]

      Himself - Host & Nominated: Outstanding Writing for a Variety Series and Outstanding Variety Talk Series: Thank you very much. This is exciting! Can you feel? This is TV's highest honors. Us celebrating us.

      [laughter]

      Himself - Host & Nominated: Outstanding Writing for a Variety Series and Outstanding Variety Talk Series: Tonight, we binge ourselves.

      [laughter]

      Himself - Host & Nominated: Outstanding Writing for a Variety Series and Outstanding Variety Talk Series: Can you feel it? This room is crackling with a collective energy of people who, for the last forty-eight hours, have consumed nothing but distilled water and Crest White Strips.

      [laughter]

      Himself - Host & Nominated: Outstanding Writing for a Variety Series and Outstanding Variety Talk Series: All the nominees look so beautiful this evening. So happy. So hopeful. Just a reminder, if you do win, don't forget to thank everyone who helped you get up here. Mainly "Game of Thrones", for not being eligible this year.

      [laughter and applause]

      Himself - Host & Nominated: Outstanding Writing for a Variety Series and Outstanding Variety Talk Series: Now, personally, I have to take a moment here to thank CBS chairman Leslie Moonves. I literally have to thank him. It's in my contract. Unfortunately, Les could not be here tonight to receive my gratitude, so I accept it on his behalf.

    Trump, this is on you
    This is the first Emmys broadcast that I've ever watched. I knew that a lot of the show was going to be swipes at Donald Trump, especially with Stephen Colbert hosting. The brief appearance by Sean Spicer naturally drew a lot of controversy, since Spicer helped Trump lie to the country. Maybe Spicer wants revenge on his erstwhile boss for firing him.

    Otherwise I liked what I saw. I should admit that of all the nominees, the only shows that I've seen consistently in the past year are "Full Frontal with Samantha Bee", "Last Week Tonight with John Oliver", "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert", "Real Time with Bill Maher" and "Saturday Night Live". I've also seen "The Wizard of Lies", "Dolly Parton's Christmas of Many Colors" and scattered segments of "Late Night with Seth Meyers". I liked that John Oliver, Alec Baldwin and Kate McKinnon won (although I would've been inclined to award Leslie Jones; she's the best person on SNL right now). My one real complaint was that the In Memorian segment omitted Dick Gregory.

    All in all, I liked what I saw. I hope to see "The Handmaid's Tale" and "Big Little Lies" soon.
