Since ABC is telecasting the Emmys this September, the emcee will probably be Jimmy Kimmel. Networks usually tap their late-night hosts. However, the last time the alphabet web staged the telecast, we got stuck with we got the never-hilarious Garry Shandling. (Why? And why is that man still in show business?) But perhaps Emmy chiefs are actually open to suggestions? Let's hear yours. Since this discussion is already under way in our forums (CLICK HERE), I've culled some of those suggestions for this poll.
ENOUGH of Whoopi Goldberg, people; what part of SHE'S NEVER BEEN FUNNY, EVER don't you get???

wow, this is a great list! my faves are hugh laurie, wanda sykes and stephen colbert. if any of those 3 hosted, the show would be brilliant. i also like tina fey and kathy griffin. but i kinda feel like kathy would end of offending too many ppl in the audience and hence they would not laugh. let's hope whoever's in charge of hiring the emmy host reads this blog. :)

Voted for Tina Fey. Even though she's an NBC star, she'd be perfect for the Emmy ceremony!

Never hilarious? The Larry Sanders Show called. It said... some not so nice things.
I'm fine with anyone hosting except Kathy Griffin. If she hosts, I will just read the winners online. She's terrible
