Emmy
organizers said “time limitations” were why several Hollywood actors,
including Jeff Conaway, were omitted from the “In Memoriam” segment of
Sunday’s show. The “Taxi” star, “Seinfeld” cast member Len Lesser and
“The Cosby Show’s” Clarice Taylor were noticeably missing from the
tribute to members of the television industry who died this past year.
Emmy organizers subsequently acknowledged the omission on the awards
show website. They added, “In an effort to pay tribute to as many people
as possible, the Television Academy created an ‘In Memoriam’ database
on its Web site, Emmys.tv.”
