Final thoughts: I thought everyone looked fantastic. I loved that Julianne Moore and Claire Danes rocked it (and stood out) in yellow. I thought there were a lot of undeserved winners. John Cryer - no one watched Two and a Half Men since Charlie Sheen left. Julia Louis Dreyfus - she's still on TV? Kevin Costner - no comment needed.
7 out of my 18 picks won! Now I'm hungry. Time for dinner!
