Jimmy Kimmel?! Who has nothing to do with daytime at all! It's decisions like this that continue to make the Emmy broadcast a joke.. Boycott it kids! Don't stay home on a Friday night for this crap. A list of the winners and YouTube will do just fine...

Sharon, I gotta disagree with you a bit on this one. Is not Kimmel a good friend of Regis and has he not subbed for Philbin on Regis & Kelly numerous times?

Thank you DS9. I stand corrected. I wonder if Regis will be allowed up on stage to speak or if he'll just wave from the audience like the last two recipients of this award - Lee Phillip Bell and the guy who plays Big Bird. I still say boycott though.

I am guessing Regis will get a on air broadcast since he Regis. Regis normally doesn't even show up to the Emmy's any more so he isn't going to show up to just wave from the audience. The past two didn't get anything at the ceremony because the moronic producers think we don't care about them.
