Emmy night: Borrowing from reality

Emmy producers seem to be stealing a few techniques from reality show producers.

Jon Cryer came backstage to talk to the media about his Emmy - for outstanding supporting actor in a comedy series - but he found himself on the broadcast again. Show producers tossed to the press room cameras so that host Neil Patrick Harris, who lost out to Cryer, could joke around with Cryer.

After it was over - and he was off the air - Cryer seemed less-than-enthused about the banter. "OK, that was the bit and I hope it was worth waiting for," he said to reporters.

It's interesting how viewers can see the Emmy director's control room, which is in a back corner of the stage.
