2011 Emmy Award Winners – ‘Modern Family’ Cleans Up
‘Modern Family’ ruled the 2011 Emmys — the ABC comedy took home the first four awards of the evening, including Outstanding Supporting Actor and Actress in a Comedy Series and, later in the night, winning Outstanding Comedy Series.
Jane Lynch’s 2011 Emmys Opening Number [VIDEO]
Jane Lynch opened the 63rd Emmy Awards with a song and dance number that took the audience through the world of television, reimagined as an inner-city apartment building housing all the top TV shows.
Lynch walked through scenes of hit series like ‘Mad Men‘ (where she was asked to leave the room when she informed Don Draper that in 50 years people would be fast-forwarding through commercials) and
Sam Riley — Hunk of the Day [PICTURES, VIDEO]
We’re in absolute love with British actor Sam Riley. Though we don’t endorse many of his actions — smoking, sulking, being too skinny, being married — he’s completely won us over. The hollow-cheeked hunk has an almost haunting beauty which directly causes us to watch (on repeat) clips of him on YouTube.
Hunk of the Day: Adam Levine [PICTURES, VIDEO]
If you like your men inked, we’ve got one hottie for you. Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine has all the markings (pun intended) of a serious hunk: great voice, great body and great features.
Carter Oosterhouse of HGTV — Hunk of the Day [PICTURES]
Ah, a man with a hammer. Carpenter Carter Oosterhouse (and part-time Nautica model) stars in two shows on HGTV – ‘Red Hot & Green,’ a program about eco-friendly design, and ‘Carter Can,’ where he helps homeowners through seemingly impossible home improvement dilemmas. Full disclosure: We watch the shows mainly to gawk at Oosterhouse’s unbelievable hotness.
Paul Walker — Hunk of the Day [PICTURES, VIDEO]
Quintessential California boy Paul Walker is a lot more than just a sandy-haired surfer. The actor from ‘Varsity Blues’ and ‘The Fast and the Furious’ is also a purple belt in Brazilian Jiu-itsu, a marine biologist, a race-car driver, an earthquake relief provider!
Landon Swank of ‘America’s Got Talent’ – Hunk of the Day [PICTURES]
One reason we love ‘America’s Got Talent‘: It introduces us to hunks in categories we never could have imagined. Say, magicians. Say, Landon Swank. (God, even his name is hunky.) The Alaska native (naturally) is currently fighting it out as one of the show’s top ten remaining acts.

This comedy about life behind the scenes of an NBC sketch show is no stranger to the Emmys — it won Best Comedy Series three years in a row, with its streak interrupted
Drew Van Acker — Hunk of the Day [PHOTOS]
Ah, nothing like some prep school prettiness to get us all hot and bothered. Boyishly cute Drew Van Acker plays the slightly creepy character of Jason DiLaurentis on ABC Family’s ‘Pretty Little Liars,’ and like we said, he definitely fits the “pretty” bill.
The History Behind Labor Day
What’s not to love about Labor Day? A long weekend, BBQs and parades — really, no responsibilities except for having a great time and toasting the end of summer. But what exactly does Labor Day celebrate?

Ben Whishaw — Hunk of the Day [PICTURES]
Thank you, BBC America, for bringing us the miniseries The Hour, starring the broodingly good-looking Ben Whishaw as Freddie. He hails from Bedfordshire, which to our American ear sounds incredibly ye olde worlde exotic.
