I am – Hercules!!
UPDATE: We now have word that Ausiello's source may be a little confused. From an inside source who should know of what he speaks:

The Doc will appear at some point but there is no production number. I don't want people getting their hopes up for a big song and dance...literally.

Original post: Sources confirm to me exclusively that that “Mad Men” and “30 Rock” will win tonight’s top Emmys for outstanding drama and comedy, respectively. But you should consider tuning in anyway, because … Mike Ausiello over at Entertainment Weekly has two fun facts about tonight’s Emmy ceremony: 1) Emcee Neil Patrick Harris will star in a “Dr. Horrible”-themed production number (perhaps one that franchise creator Joss Whedon himself has a hand in?). Whedon won his first Emmy ever last week, for a not-TV-show: 2) “Daily Show”/”Battlestar Galactica” icon John Hodgmen, the Washington Generals of many an Apple Macintosh commercial, has been recruited to play the ceremony’s fact-challenged announcer. I'm pulling hardest for: Kristen Chenoweth Rainn Wilson Mary Louise Parker Jemaine Clement Jeff Probst Michael Emerson Hope Davis Elisabeth Moss John Hamm 30 Rock The Amazing Race The Late Show With David Letterman Saturday Night Live Battlestar Galactica Weeds and Mad Men The shot from "Wipeout"? WELL CHOSEN!! Funny song. Putting the control room and the ochestra on stage was a great idea. Both handsome visual elements. According to a forums moderator at the L.A. Times, this is the order in which the pointy trophies will be disseminated: 1. Comedy Supporting Actress Kristin Chenoweth, "Pushing Daisies," ABC Amy Poehler, "Saturday Night Live," NBC Kristin Wiig, "Saturday Night Live," NBC Jane Krakowski, "30 Rock," NBC Vanessa Williams, "Ugly Betty," ABC Elizabeth Perkins, "Weeds," Showtime Herc is VERY happy about this. Chenoweth wants to be on "Mad Men," "The Office" and "24." Which she has great taste in addition to be hugely talented. Alyson Hannigan still super-hot. 2. Comedy Writing “Flight Of The Conchords - Prime Minister”; HBO “30 Rock - Apollo, Apollo”; NBC “30 Rock - Kidney Now!”; NBC “30 Rock - Mamma Mia”; NBC “30 Rock – Reunion”; NBC All funny episodes. It's "the last official year of broadcast television," notes Julia Louis-Dreyfus. 3. Comedy Supporting Actor Kevin Dillon, "Entourage," HBO Neil Patrick Harris, "How I Met Your Mother," CBS Rainn Wilson, "The Office," NBC Tracy Morgan, "30 Rock," NBC Jack McBrayer, "30 Rock," NBC Jon Cryer, "Two and a Half Men," CBS I choose to view Cryer's win as a veiled homage to John Hughes. Sarah Silverman: one funny lady. 4. Comedy Lead Actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus, "The New Adventures of Old Christine," CBS Christina Applegate, "Samantha Who?" ABC Sarah Silverman, "The Sarah Silverman Program," Comedy Central Tina Fey, "30 Rock," NBC Toni Collette, "United States of Tara," Showtime Mary-Louise Parker, "Weeds," Showtime Diablo Cody's work remains a trophy magnet! I would, however, have preferred this go to Parker, Silverman and Fey, who were actually funnier in non-multiple-personality roles. "Do you still have the envelope? Can you confirm that it does say 'Jon Cryer,'" asks Harris. Tina Fey thanks Lorne Michaels for her first big break, but Justin Timberlake fails to thank that creepy fat guy in prison who hired him for N'Sync. 5. Comedy Directing “Entourage - Tree Trippers” HBO “30 Rock - Apollo, Apollo” NBC “30 Rock – Reunion” NBC “30 Rock – Generalissimo” NBC “Flight Of The Conchords - The Tough Brets” HBO “The Office - Stress Relief” NBC Huh. Love "The Office," but thought "Stress Relief" a weak installment. That was the one with with Jack Black and Cloris Leachman, right? Rob Lowe picked "Dr. Vegas" over "Grey's Anatomy" and I respect that choice. I'm not kidding. 6. Comedy Lead Actor Jim Parsons, "The Big Bang Theory," CBS Jemaine Clement, "Flight of the Conchords," HBO Tony Shalhoub, "Monk," USA Steve Carell, "The Office," NBC Alec Baldwin, "30 Rock," NBC Charlie Sheen, "Two and a Half Men," CBS Baldwin says he'd give up his Emmy to look like Rob Lowe. But he really only has to give up french fries. 7. Reality Host Tom Bergeron - "Dancing With The Stars" ABC Phil Keoghan - "The Amazing Race" CBS Heidi Klum - "Project Runway" Bravo Padma Lakshmi, Tom Colicchio - "Top Chef" Bravo Jeff Probst - "Survivor" CBS Ryan Seacrest - "American Idol" Fox I'm down with this selection. Both Probst and Bergeron are huge Stern fans. Tray Morgan continues to enjoy his sobriety. 8. Reality-Competition Program "The Amazing Race" CBS "American Idol" Fox "Dancing With The Stars" ABC "Project Runway" Bravo "Top Chef" Bravo Another fine choice. 9. Movie/Mini Supporting Actress Marcia Gay Harden, "The Courageous Heart of Irena Sendler," CBS Jeanne Tripplehorn, "Grey Gardens," HBO Shohreh Aghdashloo, "House of Saddam," HBO Janet McTeer, "Into the Storm," HBO Cicely Tyson, "Relative Stranger," Hallmark Channel Behroooooooooz!! Due to the snubbing of Debbie Gibson's work in Syfy's "Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus," I refuse to comment on this win. 10. Movie/Mini Supporting Actor Ken Howard, "Grey Gardens," HBO Len Cariou, "Into the Storm," HBO Bob Newhart, "The Librarian: Curse of the Judas Chalice," TNT Tom Courtenay, "Little Dorrit," PBS Andy Serkis, "Little Dorrit," PBS Love Ken Howard. Love Hodgson's intro of Howard. He was both Thomas Jefferson and The White Shadow. I thank his kidney doner as well! 11. Movie/Mini Lead Actor Kevin Kline, "Cyrano de Bergerac," PBS Brendan Gleeson, "Into the Storm," HBO Ian McKellen, "King Lear," PBS Kevin Bacon, "Taking Chance," HBO Kiefer Sutherland, "24: Redemption," Fox Kenneth Branagh, "Wallander: One Step Behind," PBS Gleeson beats McKellen's Lear!! I blame the script! "That's a terrible seat and a hilarious sight gag!!" Are Arquette and Hewitt mediums or media? 12. Movie/Mini Writing "Generation Kill - Bomb In The Garden" HBO "Grey Gardens" HBO "Into The Storm" HBO "Little Dorrit" PBS "Taking Chance" HBO "The Wire's" David Simon snubbed again!! 13. Movie/Mini Directing "Generation Kill" - "Bomb In The Garden" HBO "Grey Gardens" HBO "Into The Storm" HBO "Little Dorrit - Part 1" PBS "Taking Chance" HBO "Wallander: One Step Behind" PBS And again!! No dancing on the "Dr. Horrible" segment, but plenty of fight choreography. Go Moist! 14. Movie/Mini Lead Actress Chandra Wilson, "Accidental Friendship," Hallmark Channel Shirley MacLaine, "Coco Chanel," Lifetime Drew Barrymore, "Grey Gardens," HBO Jessica Lange, "Grey Gardens," HBO Sigourney Weaver, "Prayers for Bobby," Lifetime Is Lange hinting she's available for a "Housewives" role? Those Old Navy mannequin ads may be the least funny ever forged. 15. TV Movie "Coco Chanel," Lifetime "Grey Gardens," HBO "Into the Storm," HBO "Prayers for Bobby," Lifetime "Taking Chance," HBO At last a win to set the AICN talkbacks afire! 16. TV Miniseries "Generation Kill," HBO "Little Dorrit" PBS A Simon-snubbing trifecta! "Little Dorritt" must rock! 17. Variety Directing "American Idol" (Show 833 - The Final Three) Fox "The Colbert Report" (159) Comedy Central "The Daily Show With Jon Stewart" (13107) Comedy Central "Late Show With David Letterman" (Episode 2932) CBS "Real Time With Bill Maher" (705) HBO "Saturday Night Live" (Host: Justin Timberlake) NBC This guy directed "Bohemian Rhapsody"! That's worth something. These writer introductions are always hilarious. I bet they're on YouTube somewhere. 18. Variety Writing "The Colbert Report" Comedy Central "The Daily Show With Jon Stewart" Comedy Central "Late Night With Conan O'Brien" NBC "Late Show With David Letterman" CBS "Saturday Night Live" NBC "Accepting is Jon Stewart!" Or possibly some other fellow! Maybe we should have hired Justin Long to announce! Ha! Ha! Ha! 19. Original Music & Lyrics "81st Annual Academy Awards" - Song Title: Hugh Jackman Opening Number ABC "A Colbert Christmas: The Greatest Gift Of All" - Song Title: "Much Worse Things" Comedy Central "The 2008 ESPYS" - Song Title: "I Love Sports" ESPN "Flight Of The Conchords" - "Unnatural Love" / Song Title: "Carol Brown" HBO "A Muppets Christmas: Letters To Santa" - Song Title: "I Wish I Could Be Santa Claus" NBC "Saturday Night Live" - Host: Justin Timberlake / Song Title: "Motherlover" NBC Who was that guy who accepted? He's funny. 20. Variety Series "The Colbert Report" Comedy Central "The Daily Show With Jon Stewart" Comedy Central "Late Show With David Letterman" CBS "Real Time With Bill Maher" HBO "Saturday Night Live" NBC They let Stewart talk. He was, predictably, funnier than the Stewart impostor. "An Emmy pin! That helps." I'm missing "Mad Men"! How long is this show?? 21. Drama Supporting Actor William Shatner, "Boston Legal," ABC Christian Clemenson, "Boston Legal," ABC Aaron Paul, "Breaking Bad," AMC William Hurt, "Damages," FX Michael Emerson, "Lost," ABC John Slattery, "Mad Men," AMC Yes! Fabulous choice. He does a great Hurley too! 22. Drama Supporting Actress Rose Byrne, "Damages," FX Networks Sandra Oh, "Grey's Anatomy," ABC Chandra Wilson, "Grey's Anatomy," ABC Dianne Wiest, "In Treatment," HBO Hope Davis, "In Treatment," HBO Cherry Jones, "24," Fox Wow! Dennis Haysbert never even got nominated!! Are David Boeranaz and Stephen Moyer paired because they're both vampires? Racism! 23. Drama Directing "Battlestar Galactica" - "Daybreak (Part 2)" Syfy "Boston Legal" - "Made In China/Last Call" ABC "Damages" - "Trust Me" FX "ER" - "And In The End" NBC "Mad Men" - "The Jet Set" AMC "Battlestar Galactica" lost to the "ER" finale. Really?!? 24. Drama Writing "Lost" - "The Incident" ABC "Mad Men - "A Night To Remember" AMC "Mad Men - "Six Month Leave" AMC "Mad Men" - "The Jet Set" AMC "Mad Men" - "Meditations In An Emergency" AMC Predictably entertaining speech by Matt Weiner. Writer Kater Gordon looks like Julia Stiles, and her fiance now gets to marry a hot Emmy-winning screenwriter. Go Peggy! 25. Drama Lead Actress Sally Field, "Brothers & Sisters," ABC Kyra Sedgwick, "The Closer," TNT Glenn Close, "Damages," FX Mariska Hargitay, "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit," NBC Elisabeth Moss, "Mad Men," AMC Holly Hunter, "Saving Grace," TNT Bah! "Damages" is a fine show, but Moss is more deserving. 26. Drama Lead Actor Bryan Cranston, "Breaking Bad," AMC Michael C. Hall, "Dexter," Showtime Hugh Laurie, "House," Fox Gabriel Byrne, "In Treatment," HBO Jon Hamm, "Mad Men," AMC Simon Baker, "The Mentalist," CBS Love "Breaking Bad," but Cranston, in his showier role, was my second choice. 27. Comedy Series "Entourage," HBO "Family Guy," Fox "Flight of the Conchords," HBO "How I Met Your Mother," CBS "The Office," NBC "30 Rock," NBC "Weeds," Showtime Well deserved. Love Fey's acceptance speeches. 28. Drama Series "Big Love," HBO "Breaking Bad," AMC "Damages," FX Networks "Dexter," Showtime "House," Fox "Lost," ABC "Mad Men," AMC Watch "Mad Men." It's my favorite show and it's on right now. 8 p.m. Sunday. CBS.
