I think the Emmys have now started a trend. First Ryan Seacrest and now Carlos Mencia... That's definitely a pattern. Usually they get someone funny to host the emmys (not Ryan Seacrest) and they usually get someone pretty to host the other Emmy stuff (not Carlos Mencia).
Someone is trying to completely run teh emmys into the ground.

Well if the regular Emmys show wanted someone funny, they wouldn't hire Carlos Mencia either. I never thought he was funny and now that I hear so many comedians say that Mencia steals most of his material, I can't watch him at all.

How about Jon Stewart? Garry Shandling? Sarah Silverman? Stephen Colbert? Conan O'Brien? Dennis Leary? Steve Carrell? Lure Ray Romano or Jerry Seinfeld back to TV for a night. Now that would make this year's Emmys an event!
