Couldn’t tune in? Here’s what you need to know to pretend you did.
It was a decidedly difficult weekend for football fans of taste, with the Saints, LSU and Tulane all suffering at the dirty end of blowout losses. That being the case, you can be forgiven if you decided to pack it in early, turn off the TV and bed down before the 2017 Emmy Awards aired Sunday night (Sept. 17).
Of course, that creates a problem: How will you participate in this week’s office conversation, which — if there’s any god in heaven above — will steer far from football? Worry not. We’ve got you covered.
Below, find 10 memorable moments from the 69th annual Emmy show, presented in talking-point format, to help you convincingly pretend you turned in to the three-hour self-congratulation-athon. The pertinent clips are included where available, courtesy of CBS.
And the winner is: you.
