The Actually, GMTV, It Wasn't A Shock Modern Family Won Post.

Because though I'm decidedly pro-Glee for reasons beyond having disgusting thoughts about Lea Michele, Modern Family is fantastic and richly deserved its Emmys last night. (The GMTV bloke was probably surprised because unlike Glee, Modern Family isn't shown on free-to-air TV in the UK and therefore isn't as widely known as the New Directions group.) That said, I'm less delighted about Edie Falco getting another Emmy (and not at all delighted about Wizards of Waverly Place beating Hannah Montana and iCarly. Again) than in Anne Hathaway getting her first... and hey, Claire Danes finally got the Emmy she didn't get for My So-Called Life! But I still say Bear McCreary's Human Target theme was robbed.

The Did They Mention The Music? Post.

The TV Academy has put the final nail in the TV theme song coffin, quoth Variety.
Now that the once vibrant slice of pop culture -- who doesn't still know the words to the themes from Gilligan's Island or The Brady Bunch? -- has mostly disappeared from primetime, the Emmy category honoring main title songs is following suit.
The Academy announced Monday that the main title theme category would be eliminated effective next year, and replaced by the new "music composition for a non-fiction program" award.
"This change was made due to the decreasing number of traditional television main title theme music," the org said.
Indeed, TV themes virtually disappeared in the late 1990s, as networks experimented with ways to keep viewers from flipping channels. Just as they squeezed out closing credits, played with start and stop times (like last week's 9:28 p.m. scheduling of Glee) and worked to seamlessly blend from one show to the next, webheads also dramatically reduced opening credit segments -- or got rid of them all together.
The main title theme category ax was one of several rules changes announced by the Academy. But...

...the one with the music is the one under the spotlight here. To be honest, this isn't terribly surprising - increasing contempt for openings aside, the Emmys have had difficulties with theme tunes for a long time (ever since ATAS was founded, in fact) - in the book Inside Star Trek Robert H. Justman and Herbert F. Solow relate how the 1967 Emmys decided that Lalo Schifrin's work on Mission: Impossible wasn't worthy of a statuette (although Schifrin has won an Emmy, it wasn't for this), and indeed they didn't even give awards out for themes until 1993! So in "honour" of this occasion, and as another lament for the time when network TV shows had decent opening and closing tunes (it was not uncommon, for instance, for The A-Team to give Mike Post and Pete Carpenter's theme a lengthy workout, and the next time the pilot for Moonlighting is shown have a look at how the end credits give you a chance to hear the whole song!), all the Emmy-winning themes so far. I only wish The Simpsons or Twin Peaks could have been among the following...

1993: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (Dennis McCarthy)



1994: seaQuest DSV (John Debney)



1995: Star Trek: Voyager (Jerry Goldsmith, his fifth and final Emmy)



1996: Murder One (Mike Post, his only Emmy to date - and why this is set to scenes of Gillian Anderson, I don't know)



1997: EZ Streets (Mark Isham - his end title music doesn't seem to be online anywhere, dammit)



1998: Fame L.A. (Robbie Buchanan, Maribeth Derry, Richard Barton Lewis and Tom Snow)



1999: Trinity (Martin Davich - no video available, apparently)

2000: The West Wing (W.G. Snuffy Walden)



2001: Gideon's Crossing (James Newton Howard)



2002: Six Feet Under (Thomas Newman)



2003: Monk (Jeff Beal)



2004: Monk, again (Randy Newman) - yes, this won for both its themes. Amazing.



2005: Desperate Housewives (Danny Elfman)



2006: Masters of Horror (Edward Shearmur)



2007: The Tudors (Trevor Morris)



2008: Pirate Master (Russ Landau)



2009: Great Performances (John Williams)

The Aggressive Mediocrity, And Then... Even More Aggressive Mediocrity Post.

With thanks to the producers of Californication for the title.


About 40 minutes ago E! finished relaying the Emmys c/o CBS. I got up just in time to miss Hayden Panettiere on the red carpet, thus setting the tone for the dull nature of the rest of the show. Not because of Neil Patrick Harris (actually a vast improvement on last year's hosts), and certainly not because of his opening number by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman ("(Christina Hendricks) could turn a gay man straight... oh wait, there's Jon Hamm"). Not because of the lack of visual entertainment from the presenters - my girl Hayden ("You know her as the voice of Fairy Princess Willow in Scooby-Doo And The Goblin King") and Blake "The Leg And Cleavage Show" Lively excepted. No, the problem was the spectacular lack of shocks - plus I can sympathise with anyone watching and wondering "Who? What?" No offence, but when a BBC/PBS miniseries of a Dickens novel - Little Dorrit - is one of the biggest winners at a TV awards show the word "boring" somehow comes to mind. And as for all the repeat wins...

And who else noticed that practically all the in-vision "presenters coming up" bits were for people who were either on CBS shows or shows linked to the corporate owners (like the Gossip Girls, courtesy the CW - partly owned by CBS)? Still, no complaints about the E! feed including part of the CBS promo for CSI: Miami accompanying the end credits. Or about Kristin Chenoweth (as opposed to Wizards of Waverly Place) winning. Which brings us to...
