I wasn't laughing so hard since ages! I was laughing so hard during episode 4 that I couldn't breathe. laugher Tell me which episode Lisa Kudrow sent to the Emmys? I can't believe she lost that Emmy to JLD, she was so LMFAO! How the hell that was cancelled?! Thisshould have been nominated for Best Comedy Series too. So FUNNY!

Kudrow went with the Jay Leno episode. (The finale.)

Kudrow was great, but I gotta give it to JLD, "Supertramp" was a killer tape for her. That sexy dance alone was enough to win her that Emmy!

Nah. Breaking the "Seinfeld curse" was enough to win JLD the Emmy. Well that and not having the most deserving bunch of nominees in the category.

Although i thought "Valerie Gets a Special Episode" was Kudrow's best tape, she still should have easily beat Dreyfuss. I had her ranked second after Jane K. Oh well.

I definitley thought this show deserved a second season. It became really biting satire as the season went on.

I was so disappointed when this didn't come back for a second season.

Not taking anything from JLD but Kudrow should have won. Her performance in every episode is Emmy material.


I hope The Office wins as Best Comedy Series for this year's Emmy Awards.

I really enjoyed this series as well and was hoping for a second season...largely due to Kudrow's stunning work...she was simply awesome and absolutely deserving of an Emmy.

Do y'all think that Lisa was devastated that she lost?

I wouldn't say devastated...She is after all an Emmy winner as it is (for "Friends"). I do remember her being interviewed on the night of the ceremony, and she said she was disappointed it was cancelled because new shows these days don't have time to find an audience.

"The Comeback" is a love it/hate it show. I am one of the many that absolutely cherish it (no pun intended!), and I try to tell as many people as I can about it.

My favorite episode is the vacation in Palm Springs.

I was upset for a while it was cancelled, but in its 13th and finale episode it ended with perfection.

I've just ended the whole series and my God! JLD gives back your Emmy to Lisa Kudrow now! And HBO, you stupid HBO, why didn't you give it another season? I was rolling on the floor during showing of the premiere of "The Comeback" on the last episode. It was so fu*king funny! Lisa Kudrow was amazing, AMAZING! There should be a fu*king tie that year: Kudrow and Kaczmarek. If Kaczmarek won before then it would be only Lisa! Brilliant show, brilliant.

I dont begrudge JLD's win, she was exceptionally good and endearing and funny, even with sub-par material. Lisa Kudrow was bordering on grating (but then, I saw all 13 episodes on DVD in one weekend instead of one episode per week, so it might have been mildly masochistic on my part, the intensity of her whining was too much to bear continuously in 6 hours). Still, I admit she was good and deserved her nomination. Jane Kaczmarek was overdue but it really wasnt her best season and the show's past its prime.

Marcia Cross should have won hands down, it was her best season and she wasnt even nominated.

If I had my way Marcia Cross would have been nominated for the second season and she and Lisa would have tied.
