CBS - NEIL PATRICK HARRIS A WINNER AS HOST

NEIL PATRICK HARRIS A WINNER AS HOST

Critics have heaped praised on Neil Patrick Harris for his turn as master of ceremonies of Sunday night's Primetime Emmy Awards. Robert Bianco in USA Today gushed "If Sunday night's CBS Emmy broadcast was the best in years _ and it surely was _ much of the credit goes to Harris, the show's dapper, constantly congenial host. Proving his Tony Awards stint was more than a flash-in-the-reward-show-host pan, Harris rescued the show from two years of reality-host miasma with style, grace and musical flair." The Washington Post 's Tom Shales said that Harris performed his duties "engagingly." On the show itself Jon Stewart told Harris, "You're doing a great job," and noted that he had attended quite a few Emmy shows. (He picked up his seventh Emmy Sunday night.)
