PMT's reach was farther than his grasp. I guess you could say he was... EGOTistical.

>EGOT, an acronym for the Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony Awards, is the designation given to people who have won all four of the major American art awards.
>The EGOT acronym was coined by actor Philip Michael Thomas in late 1984, when his role on Miami Vice brought him instant fame, and he stated a desire to achieve the EGOT within five years.(Thomas has yet to be nominated for any EGOT prize.)
>The acronym gained wider recognition following a 2009 episode of 30 Rock that introduced EGOT status as a recurring plotline.

It's funny that Philip Michael Thomas was never nominated for any of them.

I propose we rename the Emmy to something starting with an A so we can change it to GOAT

I'm sure that's a wonderful bit of trivia to share with your fellow 30 Rock fan, and we don't actually need to know what EGOT means.

As Robert Browning once wrote, "Ah, but a man's reach should exceed his grasp, Or what's a heaven for?" I was prepared for the possibility of this meeting!

The next level up is the PEGOT award which is an EGOT and also winning the Pulitzer prize. Marvin Hamlisch and Richard Rodgers have done this.

No one, as yet, has won the PENGOT award, which includes the above PLUS winning the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest.
