Emmy had a split personality this year. Television’s annual awards show honored hot new broadcast comedies “Modern Family” and “Glee,” while sticking with more familiar favorites from cable in drama.

“Modern Family” won the Emmy for best comedy in its rookie season. The sweetly uproarious sitcom knit together a gay couple and their adopted daughter, a more traditional bumbling dad and his uptight wife, and a world-weary patriarch with his hot young Latin wife — and became an instant favorite on ABC.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Carrie Underwood’s wedding was one of the most special days of her life, but it will likely become fodder for jokes when she and Brad Paisley host the Country Music Association Awards for the third year in a row.

The two will anchor the Nov. 10 ceremony in Nashville, and Paisley said of Underwood’s July union with NHL player Mike Fisher: “We have to bring it up.”

“It was big news in country music, so if it is that, it is fair game, as well as Nashville or current events,” he said in an interview with Underwood on Thursday. “It’s worth talking about anything like that that people will relate to.”

In Hollywood circles the TV development business is often described derisively as 10,000 people running to the spot where lightning just struck.

But in an industry where attempting to replicate past success is as much about ambition as necessity, this coming season is something of an anomaly. Rather than churn out family comedies in the vein of the popular “Modern Family” or attempt to clone the musical dramedy “Glee,” the networks are approaching the fall season with their hopes pinned on series more akin to “Flash Forward” and “Friends” in style. Though many of these new offerings have largely underwhelmed television critics, there are some standouts worth noting — and watching.

Steven Tyler is signed, sealed, and Idol’d.

While Fox officially says “no comment,” a very-inside music source confirms the flamboyant Aerosmith singer finalized negotiations late last week and is officially signed on to be a judge on the 10th season of “American Idol.” Whew, now we have somebody else to wear wackier makeup than Paula Abdul ever did, too fab!

Ali Fedotowsky and Roberto Martinez might want to consider the Playboy Mansion as a possible wedding location. We’re thinking they could probably get a good deal on the place.

As it turns out, Hugh Hefner is a bigtime fan of The Bachelorette.

“I got Hef hooked on it!” the Playboy mogul’s girlfriend Crystal Harris told us earlier today while promoting The Girls Next Door: The Bunny House, E!’s upcoming reality special about a gaggle of Playmates who live across the street from the Mansion.

Sources close to “American Idol” are saying that producer Nigel Lythgoe is indeed returning to the show he helped create. That opens the door again for wild speculation about who might sit at the judges’ table when the audition rounds with the judges begin taping.

Lythgoe said last spring that he thought Usher, Elton John and Paula Abdul would make a winning panel.

Don’t hold your breath if you’re waiting for Usher or Elton John, but Paula? She’s a wild card. She tweeted on Tuesday night this Winston Churchill quote: “A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to put its pants on.”

Who believes that Whoopi Goldberg got a little rough with Michaele Salahi today?

The View is up in arms over the Real Housewives of D.C. matron’s claim that Goldberg hit her during the show, calling Salahi’s accusation “completely unfounded and erroneous.” (Which is funny, because it looked as if all of her castmates really were raring to hit her throughout their appearance.)

NEW YORK — Mitch Miller, the goateed orchestra leader who asked Americans to “Sing Along With Mitch” on television and records and produced hits for Tony Bennett, Patti Page and other performers, has died at age 99.

His daughter, Margaret Miller Reuther, said Monday that Miller died Saturday in Lenox Hill Hospital after a short illness.

Miller was a key record executive at Columbia Records in the pre-rock ‘n’ roll era, making hits with singers Bennett, Page, Rosemary Clooney and Johnny Mathis. As a producer and arranger, Miller had misses, too, famously striking out on projects with Frank Sinatra and a young Aretha Franklin and in general scorning the rise of rock.
