"Party Down" lives! OK, that's overstating things -- but the late Starz series' creators (Rob Thomas, John Enbom and Dan Etheridge) have sold a pilot to NBC that sounds like it could have a similar spirit: It's called "Temps," and it's about people working various temp jobs to make ends meet.

"Survivor" host Jeff Probst, who won his third straight Emmy for best reality host last weekend, will be a presenter at Sunday's (Aug. 29) Primetime Emmys.

Also at the Emmys, fans will be able to follow winners backstage to a "thank-you cam" that will be part of a live video stream on Emmys.com, NBC.com and Ustream.com. [NBC]
