Neil Patrick Harris was kicking things off at the 65th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards when he was interrupted by last year's host Jimmy Kimmel.

Kimmel proceeded to rush the stage and give NPH an earful of pointers, highlighting how terribly he was screwing up. Soon enough, past hosts Conan, Jimmy Fallon, and Jane Lynch were also on-stage, heckling NPH.

Meanwhile, House of Cards' Kevin Spacey was in character as Frank Underwood out in the crowd, explaining that he sent the former hosts to sabatoge the opening. Additionally, he placed critically-acclaimed Golden Globes hosts Tina Fey and Amy Poehler in the front row.

The women heckled Harris, asking him to take off his pants and twerk for America. They were wearing 3-D glasses to "see his business better."
