It looks like The Good Lord Bird will be a major contender for the rest of the season. Every single review is positive and Hawke has an undeniable performance.

Yeah I think Hawke is getting in at the Globes and so is the show.

Will be a bit cautious though because this season still looks like it’s going to be just as competitive as last year and the year before so I won’t be surprised to see Hawke end up like Stone or Crowe but let’s see.

It’s a Sin? as in the Pet Shop Boys song about the AIDS crisis? The same Pet Shop Boys who collab with Olly’s band Years and Years (funnily enough, also the title Davies previous show) last year.

Love a full circle moment where they’re unafraid to reference or not reference

Pieces of Her (Netflix Limited series starring Toni Collette that was meant to be on Netflix in September) has had production suspended in Vancouver and rescheduled to January 2021. I guess that’s one to cross out for the 2021 Emmys.

I’m assuming Netflix is trying to do everything it can to get Inventing Anna to finish shooting its episodes on time so it can push it as its Spring Limited Series (i.e. When They See Us, Hollywood, Unorthodox).

Ryan Murphy wants to do everything doesn’t he? Part of me honestly expects this to veer into camp melodrama.

Where did you read that Black Narcissus is a TV Movie? Also, Billy Eichner’s character in Impeachment has one sentence on his Wikipedia page about Monica Lewinsky, he won’t be a major player I presume.

The industry is going to get sick of Ryan eventually.
