Emmy Awards kick off fall TV season Cover Story this
By Kyla Brewer TV MediaAs the weather begins to cool and TV fans prepare to tuck into a whole new season of prime time, the stars of the small screen take a look back at the year’s achievements and celebrate the outstanding work of their peers.
Stephen Colbert (“The Late Show With Stephen Colbert”) welcomes some of the television industry’s biggest names to the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles as he hosts the 69th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards, airing Sunday, Sept. 17, on CBS. Bestowed annually by the Television Academy of Arts and Sciences, the awards recognize excellence in American prime-time programming in a variety of categories, which include acting, directing, writing and a “best of” category.
Colbert is the latest in a string of late-night personalities to helm a major awards ceremony this year.
Jimmy Fallon (“The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon”) hosted The 74th Golden Globe Awards, Jimmy Kimmel (“Jimmy Kimmel Live!”) emceed The 89th Academy Awards and James Corden (“The Late Late Show With James Corden”) took the reins of the 59th Annual Grammy Awards.
Now it’s Colbert’s turn, and the folks at CBS couldn’t be happier.
The network’s head honchos sang Colbert’s praises in January when news broke that he’d be the latest Emmy host.
“Stephen is the ultimate master of ceremonies with award-winning creative talents, and as we’ve seen in the past few months, he has a

fearless passion for live television,” CBS executive Jack Sussman said.
When his Emmy gig was announced, Colbert responded in his trademark tongue-in-cheek fashion, saying: “This will be the largest audience to witness an Emmys, period.” The quip was a not-so-subtle jab at the controversy surrounding attendance at President Trump’s inauguration in January.
This year’s ceremony could be very big for Colbert indeed. He’s up for six of the coveted statuettes and is poised to make Emmy history should he win multiple awards while also hosting the show. “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” has earned Emmy nominations for directing, writing and outstanding variety talk series. The comedian’s Showtime election night special, “Stephen Colbert’s Live Election Night Democracy’s Series Finale: Who’s Going to Clean Up This Sh*t,” has been nominated in the same three categories.
Such a win would be stellar for Colbert, but there will be plenty of other excitement during this year’s ceremony. Shemar Moore (“Criminal Minds”) and Anna Chlumsky (“Veep”) announced the nominees in July, revealing that NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” and HBO’s “Westworld” had each earned a whopping 22 nominations. Other big nominees include FX’s “Feud: Bette and Joan” and Netflix’s “Stranger Things,” which tied with 18 Emmy nods, while HBO’s “Veep” came in next with 17 just ahead of HBO’s “Little Big Lies” and FX’s “Fargo,” which each earned 16.
With nods for everything from supporting actor to makeup to writ-
Match of the Month
Tason’s mom came to Kinship a little over 2 years ago wanting to find a mentor for her son. He was a very active ten year old at the time and was hoping to find a young guy who liked the outdoors and could include him in some of his hobbies.
At about the same time, Ryan came to Kinship wanting to partner with a young boy. He was very active in a lot of outdoor sports, and being single, wanted to share some of his time with someone.
Ryan loves to bike the trails in the Crosby area, and so that became one of their first activities. Along the way, they have enjoyed boating, camping and Ryan even taught Tason a little about welding.
ing, “SNL” led the way for NBC, which came through with 64 overall nominations. That’s a mere drop in the bucket, however, compared to HBO’s 111 nominations, and that’s without ratings juggernaut “Game of Thrones,” which was ineligible for this year’s Emmys. Streaming service Netflix brought home a total of 91 nominations, pushing NBC to third place just ahead of FX, which earned 55 Emmy nominations for its programs. ABC followed with 33, CBS was close behind with 29 and Fox came through with 20.
It is worth noting that NBC’s hit “This Is Us” became the first Outstanding Drama Series nominee from a broadcast network since 2011. It’s up against HBO’s “Westworld,” AMC’s “Better Call Saul,” Hulu’s “The Handmaid’s Tale” and Netflix’s “The Crown,” “Stranger Things” and “House of Cards.”
The Outstanding Comedy Series category includes a mix of traditional broadcast sitcoms, quirky streaming series and star-studded cable shows. ABC’s “Black-ish” and “Modern Family” are both nominated for the Emmy, while HBO’s “Silicon Valley” and “Veep,” Netflix’s “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt” and “Master of None” and FX’s “Atlanta” round out the category.
Defending champion Jeffrey Tambor is once again nominated in the Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series for his role in Amazon’s “Transparent.” The other nominees include Anthony Anderson (“Black-ish”), William H. Macy (“Shameless”), Aziz Ansari (“Master of None”), Zach Galifianakis
(“Baskets”) and Donald Glover (“Atlanta”).
Milo Ventimiglia and Sterling K. Brown from “This Is Us” are both up for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series, a category which also includes Matthew Rhys (“The Americans”), Bob Odenkirk (“Better Call Saul”), Kevin Spacey (“House of Cards”), Liev Schreiber (“Ray Donovan”) and Anthony Hopkins (“Westworld”).
Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin both made the cut for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for their work in the Netflix series “Grace and Frankie.” Other nominees include Julia Louis-Dreyfus (“Veep”), Ellie Kemper (“Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt”), Allison Janney (“Mom”), Tracee Ellis Ross (“Blackish”) and Pamela Adlon (“Better Things”).
Oscar winner Viola Davis (“How to Get Away With Murder”) represents broadcast television in the Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series category, which also includes Keri Russell (“The Americans”), Claire Foy (“The Crown”), Elisabeth Moss (“The Handmaid’s Tale”), Robin Wright (“House of Cards”) and Evan Rachel Wood (“Westworld”).

“There’s literally no difference between Robert E. Lee and George Washington” — that’s a quote from Donald Trump. Literally, no difference, except there’s literally a difference, like literally their names are different. You literally don’t know what literally means.

Award-winning actress Valerie Bertinelli shares her favorite recipes
By Andrew Warren TV MediaIf you want to see what success looks like, look no further than Valerie Bertinelli. She’s best known for her career as a TV actress, having starred in “One Day at a Time,” “Touched by an Angel” and “Hot in Cleveland,” but those varied shows are just a fraction of her claim to fame.
She’s earned two Golden Globes for her acting, is a New York Times bestselling author and is a wellknown advocate for healthy weight loss and lifestyles.
She’s also an accomplished cook, and she loves to share her recipes, techniques and expertise in “Valerie’s Home Cooking” — a new season of her culinary series premiered just last weekend. Now airing Satur-
days on Food Network, in the series she invites viewers at home to join her as she interacts with her friends, family and neighbors and shares the tried-and-true recipes that she loves most, along with some exciting new ones that she comes up with along the way.
In this week’s episode, airing Saturday, Sept. 23, Valerie shares some of her sources of culinary inspiration. Like any cooking enthusiast, she finds inspiration almost everywhere she looks, including her local farm stand. She heads on down there this week to see what fresh local produce is available, and she doesn’t leave disappointed.
Once she’s home, she gets to work coming up with recipes using the ingredients she found at the stand. On the menu are a plum slab pie, a gratin made with the freshest
summer vegetables, and a spicy cucumber salad with spiced yogurt sauce.
The summer heat calls for a cold drink, of course, and Valerie has something to fill that need, too: a boozy frozen espresso that’s sure to get any coffee lover’s mouth watering.
And that’s really what “Valerie’s Home Cooking” is all about: just a food-loving home cook who hap-
pens to be famous, preparing recipes that can find a home on any family’s menu. Last week, she helped her Cub Scout nephew earn his cooking badge by working with him to prepare some kid-friendly recipes, and the rest of the season finds the actress doing what she loves best: cooking for her loved ones.
“Valerie’s Home Cooking” airs Saturday mornings on Food Network.
