Neil Patrick Harris hosted Sunday’s 2013 Emmy Awards and, the ratings prove it, he did a fine job because almost 18 million people tuned in for the show. He also delivered plenty of GIF-able moments, which I have included below for your viewing pleasure.

Sure, overall, the Emmys were as tedious and pretentious as in previous years, if not actually more but, if you only watched certain segments of it online, you probably got the winning ticket.

Some of these moments have already been immortalized in GIF form and, yes, they do include plenty of dancing from the award show’s host, the ever charming and eager to please NPH.

So, before we close the book on this year’s Emmys for good, let’s take a few moments and remember the highlights of a ceremony that has been dubbed “the best dressed funeral ceremony ever in history.”
