Memo to Bob Newhart's Primetime Emmy Co-Nominees

Each one of you is nominated alongside comedy legend Bob Newhart in the 2013 Primetime Emmy category of Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series. Should any of you win at the Creative Arts ceremony, please consider a variation of Ving Rhames’ priceless move at the Golden Globes and making Newhart your version of Jack Lemmon.

Critics of Oscar and Emmy oversights often gloss over the fundamental fact that there will never be anywhere near enough round circles to accommodate each year’s swell performance pegs.
