Yahoo! TV apparently watched the Emmys last night in fast-forward. In probably the funniest part of last nights broadcast, after an impassioned morality skit about making sure this years Emmys were truly green, Jon Stewart and Steven Colbert presented the award for Best Actor in a Comedy Series. The winner was Ricky Gervais, from HBO’s Extras. As Ricky Gervais was conspicuously absent, Stewart said that Gervais isn’t here tonight “so we’re giving it to our friend Steve Carell.” After which, Steve Carell leaped out of the audience and ran up to Colbert and Stewart. All three yelled and hugged and ran offstage together.
This morning I checked the winners list, here’s what I saw (emphasis mine):
