Current TV Wins Emmy For Some Reason

current_tv.jpg
We watched the Emmy Awards last night (for what it's worth: yay, 30 Rock!), and the award shows fellating Al Gore continues, this time for Current TV, which won for Best Interactive Programming or Best iWorld Wide Web Doing God's Work or something inane like that.

Also: really? Why? Aside from having sweet Mission Bay offices -- with self-consciously placed arcade games in their front windows -- Current TV takes itself way too seriously to be important. They have a ton of information (it's nearly all user-generated), none of it interesting. Or at least, so overwhelmingly varied and uncategorized, it's impossible to match users to the content they want. And the homepage scares us.

Have any of you had success with Current TV as being either informative or pleasantly time-wasting? Because we haven't.
