Cumberbatch won the Emmy.
Star Trek: Enterprise‘s Scott Bakula was one of those presenting the awards at last night’s ceremony.
Bakula is starting to look old which makes me feel old. 🙁
I don’t think we’ll be seeing a 60-year-old Sam Beckett leaping around.
It’ll probably be more like a Quantum Shuffle 😛
