This Sunday, August 29th the 62nd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards will be airing on NBC at 8pm ET. The insanely popular awards show will be recognizing the greatest in television from the past year including my favorite show – LOST! In addition to running on cable, the program will also be streaming live online, with the addition this year of Backstage Live @ the Emmys.

NBC.com and Emmys.com have partnered with UStream for an Emmy first.
