The Emmys reminded me that Newhart should come out with a new show.

I don't watch any television series, nominated or unnominated. I didn't see any of the movies or mini-series. But I did watch the Emmys on and off. And maybe part of the reason I enjoyed it is because I had no rooting interest in any of the nominees. But I thought it was a really good show. And I thought Conan was wonderful. Kudos to the writers! Great Mel Gibson line, too.

And Bob Newhart should be locked up for every awards program. That was hilarious. Newhart is so funny, he gets a laugh by not saying anything. So maybe he should host these things from now on. If Conan can't host the Oscars, give Bob a call.

Conan should host the Emmys every year. Heck, he should host all major award shows every year. Priceless!

I liked his Kiefer Sutherland joke: "His name--German--is German for 'Odd First Name'".

His years of doing everything in his power not to look like a sweaty mess have rendered Conan the perfect host. He couldn't look more at ease. Even his clunkers are priceless.

Jon Stewart at the Oscars, Conan at the Emmy's. The marriages are made.

I must say. He's keeping it interesting...

Bob Newhart.
