What stands between Alan Yentob and an Emmy for "Outstanding Variety Special" ? "Mel Brooks Strikes Back!" with Mel Brooks and Alan Yentob, made by Brooksfilms for HBO, is up against four other nominees.
The Kennedy Center Honors is a sort of upmarket annual "roast" of celebs, broadcast this year by CBS, and featuring David Letterman, Dustin Hoffman, Natalia Makarova, Buddy Guy and Led Zeppelin - with Mr and Mrs Obama part of the audience.
Louis C.K.: Oh My God is another HBO show. Stand-up comedian Louis (Szekely), 45, live for an hour in Phoenix, Arizona.
Saturday Night Live: Weekend Update Thursday (Part One), from NBC, made by Broadway Video in association with Universal Television, is probably the shortest entry - run-time just 22 minutes.
12-12-12: The Concert For Sandy Relief, at Madison Square Garden, was broadcast worldwide, and featurred Bruce Springsteen, Bon Jovi, Eric Clapton, Dave Grohl, Billy Joel, Alicia Keys, Chris Martin, The Rolling Stones, Roger Waters, Kanye West, The Who, Paul McCartney. Produced by Clear Channel and Harvey Weinstein, it's got to be favourite.
