*** * * * * * * * * * * * * * ***

1.) Which con artist character on a TV show that's currently in production is your favorite? A tie between Neal Caffrey and Mozzie - both of White Collar.

2.) What show are you most looking forward to it's return this Fall? So many had great season endings and I'll forever miss Lost BUT, even though it's far from my favorite, I am looking forward to the aftermath of the shootings on Grey's Anatomy.

3.) Which of these same-last-name acting duos (who are not related) would you most like to see in a movie together?
Will Smith and Maggie Smith
Mathew Fox and Megan Fox
Dustin Hoffman and Philip Seymour Hoffman
Catherine Zeta Jones and Tommy Lee Jones
Demi Moore and Julianne Moore
Hands down, for me, it's Dustin and Phillip. Both are great at comedy, drama and are Oscar winners. Yep that would be worth the price of admission.

4.) The Emmy Awards are this Sunday. Who do you most want to win? Anyone of the many nominated from Modern Family. Edie Falco for Nurse Jackie. Clare Danes for her wonderful turn in and as Temple Grandin. Hard to choose between Michael Sheen and Dennis Quaid for The Special Relationship. ALL the actors nominated for LOST. There are a few categories that are filled with great shows and/or performances that it's impossible to choose.

Hi, I'm late, but I hope I'm not too late.

1.) Which con artist character on a TV show that's currently in production is your favorite? I'm drawing a blank here. I can't think of one con artist from any of the shows I watch.

2.) What show are you most looking forward to it's return this Fall? Dexter. I'm not sure of anything else, not just yet.

3.) Which of these same-last-name acting duos (who are not related) would you most like to see in a movie together?
Will Smith and Maggie Smith
Mathew Fox and Megan Fox
Dustin Hoffman and Philip Seymour Hoffman I think these two could work well together. I'm trying to imagine who they could play but I'm coming up blank.
Catherine Zeta Jones and Tommy Lee Jones
Demi Moore and Julianne Moore

4.) The Emmy Awards are this Sunday. Who do you most want to win? There were some surprises in this years nominations. I'm a bit upset that Michael C Hall wasn't nominated I thought he was amazing. I would like Dexter to win for best Drama Series.

I wasn't thrilled with The Office this season but would like to see Steve Carell win. I also wasn't that happy with 30 Rock but thought Tina Fey was great.

That about all that I can think of now. My head is in a bit of a fog. We took Michael up to Oneonta on Sunday and got back late yesterday.

Thanks for reminding me that the show is this weekend.

Sorry my replies are so late, W.E. Classes started at work yesterday and I didn't have much time to read or reply. Great questions!

1.) Which con artist character on a TV show that's currently in production is your favorite?

Don't know if she would classify as a con artist in the pure sense of the word, but Sue Sylvester from Glee is one con artis in many ways and I LOVE Jane Lynch's portrayal.

2.) What show are you most looking forward to it's return this Fall?

Glee, Survivor, Amazing Race, and ANTM.

3.) Which of these same-last-name acting duos (who are not related)

would you most like to see in a movie together?
Will Smith and Maggie Smith
Mathew Fox and Megan Fox
Dustin Hoffman and Philip Seymour Hoffman
Catherine Zeta Jones and Tommy Lee Jones
Demi Moore and Julianne Moore

You truly cannot beat the Hoffmans, but I also think quite a winning duo would be the Smith's. Both have pretty good comedy chops and I think they could be a hoot in the right vehicle.

4.) The Emmy Awards are this Sunday. Who do you most want to win?

I'm already thrilled that Betty White, Neil Patrick Harris (who won 2 already!) and Jeff Probst have already won. I'll be out of my seat with GLEE if Jane Lynch wins, and ditto for the rest of the cast and show.

No problem being late - I usually check for a couple days. I adore Ms. Lynch in everything she does. I'm hoping for an Emmy win for her, too. Glee is must see for me. Will and Maggie - I can see that!! So many great performances this year - gonna be a good show. I'll watch from the shore!! eom/WE

2.) What show are you most looking forward to it's return this Fall? my usual, Survivor, Big Love, Parenthood, Dexter

3.) Which of these same-last-name acting duos (who are not related) would you most like to see in a movie together?

4.) The Emmy Awards are this Sunday. Who do you most want to win? Jon Hamm!

Not sure about Don but I think Dexter surely applies. Out of all your returnees I only watch Parenthood (but am trying to catch up on Dexter). How about Hoffman/Hoffman AND Moore and Moore? Jon Hamm deserves two Emmy Awards. Then again he's nominated twice!!eom/WE

The only non-cable shows I watch are AMC and OLTL, so I can't answer a single one of your questions.......but I am so glad to see a Daily Topic here that I wanted to at least respond. Now, if anyone has questions about FoodNetwork or HGTV, THEN I can give opinions!!

Replies: (list all replies)

Look for another topic about those channels as I'm addicted to both. I'll include all I watch in that topic - maybe next week but thanks for stopping by. eom/WE

Oh Yay! Thanks, W.E.!

1.) Which con artist character on a TV show that's currently in production is your favorite? Though not technically a con artist, he does do quite a bit of conning, so I will say House.

2.) What show are you most looking forward to it's return this Fall? House

4.) The Emmy Awards are this Sunday. Who do you most want to win? House

LOL ... a little single-minded, no? Sorry, but I don't watch much TV.

Replies: (list all replies)

Ya know I have always loved Hugh Laurie but have never watched House. Hmmmm. Love when he wins as he gets teased that he puts on his real accent for acceptance. Every once in a while I'll watch an episode but have no idea what season I'm in (lol). eom/WE

How about some questions?

1.) Which con artist character on a TV show that's currently in production is your favorite? Hmmmm, I'll have to go with Billy Abbott on Y&R

2.) What show are you most looking forward to it's return this Fall? Desperate Housewives.

4.) The Emmy Awards are this Sunday. Who do you most want to win? I don't know, but I hope Glee wins for something.

Replies: (list all replies)

Ohhh I don't watch Y&R but I like that actor. DH has Vanessa Williams coming and also Brian Austen Greene. Hope Mr. Cherry doesn't muck it up. Jones and Jones could be a teriffic duo as I like them both. The Glee categories are tough so I'll just wait and see on that. Hard to choose and I am a GLEEK!. eom/WE

Did you read that Neil Patrick Harris got an Emmy over the weekend at the technical awards for his guest appearance on Glee? / Sapphire

Yes I did and Betty White won for hosting SNL. eom/WE

Ooooh! I need to set up the Emmy show to record. I don't want to miss that one.

1.) Which con artist character on a TV show that's currently in production is your favorite? I don't think I watch enough prime time TV to even begin to answer this one with any merit.

2.) What show are you most looking forward to it's return this Fall? The Good Wife

3.) Which of these same-last-name acting duos (who are not related) would you most like to see in a movie together?
Will Smith and Maggie Smith
Mathew Fox and Megan Fox
Dustin Hoffman and Philip Seymour Hoffman Dynamite duo
Catherine Zeta Jones and Tommy Lee Jones
Demi Moore and Julianne Moore

4.) The Emmy Awards are this Sunday. Who do you most want to win? Jon Hamm

Mine has been set up for weeks but I may be down the shore and will watch from there. I've never watched The Good Wife and am sorry as it gets great reviews. I loved seeing PSH with DeNiro and know he more than holds his own with the older pros - hope it happens. He tops my list of character actors. I didn't mention Jon Hamm as I'm hoping that's a slam dunk. eom/WE
