THE 66th ANNUAL PRIME TIME EMMY AWARDS
NBC, 8:00 p.m. ET
Monday night for the Emmys? In August? Yes, it’s an odd day to televise it, and presenting it before Labor Day dilutes the impact even more. But there are some big stories to watch here, including a few historic ones. AMC’s Breaking Bad, for example, deserves to win the Best Drama Series award this year, but it’s up against some very stiff competition – including the same network’s Mad Men, which, if it wins, would outpace Hill Street Blues, The West Wing and L.A. Law to become the first five-time Drama Series winner in TV history. Seth Meyers hosts.
