I think this looks very Big-Little-Lies-On-Holiday (presumably minus a death). I had no interest in this series other than Britton’s involvement but this trailer actually looks really great. Visually gorgeous, amazing cast and a fun commentary on wealth and affluence. Looking forward to it!

Connie Britton is arguably the actor most overdue for an Emmy.  4 back to back nominations (3 consecutive nominations for unrelated projects which I think may be a record?) with no win yet.

Britton should have won for Murder House.

This won’t be an Emmy thing but I just get the sense it’ll be one of my favorites if this year. Same goes for Coolidge’s performance

Explosion of reviews today and universal acclaim! Looking forward to seeing what this is all about. The trailer was slight, and Mike White is a prickly writer who’s divisive to some. But the reviews suggest far more going on than meets the eye. Underestimate at your own risk! I can at least envision a future writing Emmy nomination for White, if nothing else, though this is super-early in the new eligibility cycle. He should have been nominated for “Enlightened,” and more than once.

The White Lotus review – 2021’s best, and most uncomfortable, TV show

Bill Hader and Barry in everything (2 babka)
The Great - Elle Fanning, Nicholas Hoult and comedy writing and directing

Severance in drama series, writing, Adam Scott for best actor, Ben Stiller for drama directing, and the whole cast in supporting.

This is going to be a massive serve, and I actually think it could be something awards go for as well.

FYC: Station Eleven in all categories
