Jack Klugman deserves individual Emmy tribute, son says - MSN TV News


This is a real disgrace! They will give an individual tribute for Cory Monteith --- a drug addict who caused his own death ---- but not for Jack Klugman who had a career of over 5 decades??

I won't be watching.

No. Because Corey Monteith had a much greater impact than either Klugman or Larry Hagman.

You must be part of this younger generation that this stupid tribute is supposed to attract.

Shame on the emmys for pandering and giving credence to someone who died from their own bad choices.

Sarcasm didn't translate well. I didn't even know who Monteith was until he died.

Expect more of these types of "issues" over the next few years. Guys like James Garner and Alan Alda, among others like Van Dyke, Bochco and Asner, are all getting up there.

Nothing short of criminal. Klugman's portrayal of Oscar Madison was ingenious.
