Las Vegas’ own Jimmy Kimmel hosts the Emmys (5 p.m. Sunday, KTNV-TV, Channel 13), and only a few people deserve to be on that stage more than him.

Writing, directing, acting – Lena Dunham needs something for HBO’s “Girls.”

Ditto for Louis C.K., who has a record seven individual nominations between his stand-up special and FX’s “Louie,” one of TV’s true treasures.

With the exception of Claire Danes (Showtime’s “Homeland”), though, everything dramatic should be delivered straight to AMC’s “Breaking Bad.”

Its haul should stand as deep and wide as the fat stacks of cash in Skyler’s secret storage locker.
