Emmy Awards
You always knew the guys and gals were good actors. After all, they
managed to look genuinely stressed out week after week over "bad days"

if only our biggest problem was getting rid of the radon in a huge, marvelous
house that we owned. And yes, many other people recognized the talent that
the thirtysomething crew contained and rewarded them accordingly.
