It's the motherfuckin Emmys tonight motherfuckers!!!!!!!!! It's on ABC and will be presented by Jimmy Kimmel, I guess because they know they can't beat the GGs for hosting so why even bother.

Major category nominations are listen here (with the full list linked at the bottom), while some of the most nominated shows include American Crime Story: The People v OJ Simpson, Game of Thrones, and Veep. Elsewhere The Americans finally gets a look in and Mr. Robot sees if it can build off that GG buzz, but You're The Worst and The Leftovers didn't really get poo poo so it's hardly valid to begin with.

Will the things what be deserve to win do the win? Or will what be the bad things have won the awards to be honest with you? Find out tonight, at.....evening!

I'm already prepared to rage when they give worthless Downton Abbey a pat on the rear end on the way out with Best Drama.

Actually it's alcohol. The secret is copious amounts of alcohol.

My awards show go-to drinking game is to drink every time someone acts like what's happening is the most important thing in the world. Usually gets me properly shitfaced by the one-hour mark and it might be the only drinking game that gets you LESS drunk during the Golden Globes.

Do you continue after an hour or just keep going until you die?

I was really, really bummed that Leftovers got zero nominations, but there was enough good TV this year that I am still on board.

Yeah I liked it a lot, glad to see it get some recognition in what is certain to be an OJ-dominated category.

I do wish Fargo would win something though, since it was better than both of them.

It was good, I just get lazy about watching tv shows when I don't have people to watch with. I'll watch the rest of it at some point
