[RadioDave]

Major kudos to Michael Emerson... unbelievable performance as Ben Linus... and that was one of the classiest acceptance speeches I've heard in a long time!

[Kud-Dukan]

:celebrate:celebrate:celebrate:celebrate:celebrate

Congratulations Michael!

[yoyoj06]

definitely one of the best acceptance speeches of the night. a true character on and off screen.

[WayneInNYC]

I got it right in our office Emmy Pool. I'm the ONLY one who picked him.

Congratulations to the terrific Michael Emerson!!!!

[Iggy the Lizard]

kudos were they belong.


good show

[Selestina118]

Congratulations to Michael Emerson!!! Excellent speech! :clap:

:Cheers:

[ozanna]

Congratulations Michael - a well-deserved win. :winner2:

[mzsandeestar]

WooooooooooooooHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I am so happy for him


What a beautiful speech....."I went to Hawaii for a guest appearance and it became the role of my lifetime"

From."my name is Henry Gale and I am from Minnesta" to "I'll miss you John, really I will" Ben rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[World Walker]

This is amazing news and I'm so glad his work has finally been recognized. I remember feeling dissapointed when Emerson didn't win the year Terry O' Quinn (although Terry's win was also well-deserved) won his Emmy. Way to go, Michael Emerson! I hope we see him in many more roles in his post-LOST career! :Cheers:

Can't wait to hear his speech!

[Master Xander]

I'm so glad he got an Emmy. If six seasons of Lost passed without Michael Emerson getting an Emmy, then that would have been a travesty. And now, both TOQ and Michael Emerson have Emmys, so all is well. :)

Now we need to get the other actors nominated for its last year. :p

[yoyoj06]

its awesome to see how he came on for a guest appearance for 4 episodes, and it turned into a full time role. does that happen often? i dont think so.

[ozanna]

Right on - Xander I nominate Josh Holloway :) He sure has put in the hard yards - that stupid triangle for a start !

But in the meantime I'm so happy for Michael and for "Lost" - hope they go out with a bang !

[Susan B Anthony]

Bravo Michael! :Cheers: And well deserved too.

And now can anyone deny that O'Quinn and Emerson are the acting gods on Lost? I thought not.

[Frecklestoo]

Awesome!!!:D :Cowdance: It's about time....

[DHARMA815]

Congrats to Michael Emerson!! He truly deserves that Emmy! I didn't watch the Emmy's so I missed his speech, I hope somebody YouTubes it because it sounds like that it definitely worth seeing.

[scotpgot]

Moving to "LOST News".

[Lostaway]

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.



Glad the people who deserve them, are actually getting them.

[Peggy Sawyer]

Simply fantastic speech. Every award winner should use that as a template--perfect length, intelligent and classy. What a genius Lost found in Michael Emerson.

[Joolz]

I jumped up, clapped, and shouted out loud when they said "Michael Emerson"! :D So glad he won! Well-deserved.

[soup]

Such class, he seems to much nicer than Ben.

What a huge amount of competition he faced, also. Great win for a great actor.

[Houkou]

So awesome. My favourite character/actor, so glad he won. :)

[Lily23]

Hooray! Hooray! Hooray!:Cheers::coffeedunk::Cheers:

By far my favorite character, amazing actor, so well deserved! And thanks for posting the Utube video, because I missed it.

Congratulations Michael Emerson!

[indylocke]

I got it right in our office Emmy Pool. I'm the ONLY one who picked him.

Congratulations to the terrific Michael Emerson!!!!

We have an NFL Pool...and a NCAA Bracket Pool - but Emmy Pool!!? Awesome!!!

[snakey]

He was really shocked this year, he did not expect it at all, neither did I , I hoped but didnt expect it. Carrie looked beautiful too, at least Lost was nommed for best drama.

[scotpgot]

I was kind of disappointed with his speech. It wasn't creepy at all. ;)

[strandediniowa]

Such a great win - I didn't watch last night but have just figured out that he won. YAY!

A terrific moment, and a great acceptance speech. I saw him on a talk show earlier this year, and he came across then as he did last night--intelligent, soft-spoken and humble. A truly class act.

[Dew]

Congrats to Michael Emerson. I loved his speech. Very classy. In the above post of 3 videos, the 2nd one has an error by Chris. He said Lost starts in a week at about 1:25 into the vid. I wish. :faintthud

[Vitriol]

Awesome. Awesome to the max.

[ureverybodyandsoami]

I've waited a long time for Michael Emerson to win and I'm very thankful the Emmy voters got it right this year. No one does it better than Emerson as Ben Linus. :)

:lol:

[time is a river]

Okay so help me here. Was this the first time that Emerson won an Emmy? There was something about how he had been nominated 4 times. He certainly deserved it. He is a great actor, and a real mensch.

[Dew]

I thought they said nominated 4 times 2nd win.

[ISLANDLEA]

Thanks, Lea. Well, he certainly deserved to win for Lost. But next year maybe there will be still another Lost actor who wins.

[Randy Nations]

I cannot believe this is his first win for playing Ben. He is so great in the role! Thankfully, they gave it to him. I would watch anything Michael Emerson does in the future!
