Neil Patrick Harris is the host this year, which bodes well – he’s the first entertainer since Bob Hope and Johnny Carson who could, if he so chose, spend his year just putting on tuxes and hosting various TV awards shows. There’s also a tribute to two of television’s most memorable events, both from the 1963-64 season: coverage of the assassination and funeral of John F. Kennedy, and the first appearance by The Beatles on The Ed Sullivan Show. For some things to anticipate during the awards show, see Bianculli’s Blog. And for something that should be in Sunday’s show, but won’t be, see Ed Bark’s Uncle Barky’s Bytes.
