That would be 29. The Outsider’s single nomination makes it 30 so they did count it lol.

It’ll probably be one of the Mrs America ladies (don’t know which though).

Am I the only one who thinks if anything acts as a spoiler to Watchmen in directing it’ll be Normal People? Lenny Abrahamson is a ‘name’ and they are known to gravitate toward them, especially in vote-splits. See Stephen Daldry and Jason Bateman recently. The fact that Normal People managed a Casting nomination (largely voted on by directors),…[Read more]

He missed SAG.

So? Did The Good Place not get a writing nomination over it and has 4 acting nominations to its 2? Quite a lot better is a reach, don’t you think?

Seriously, Insecure did better in below in the line stuff but The Good Place literally has double the above the line nominations.

The Good Place’s performance was relatively more expected compared…[Read more]

Guest Actors will have more screentime in their submissions than her sksksksk. Mess.

It took me a while to read but it’s soooooo good. For sure worth the hype.

Roots did it first in the Lead Actor category actually.

Funny you mention this because Fleabag not only managed to get nominated but win (ugh) the corresponding guild award for sound mixing. I’m pretty certain given some more time with the Emmys, it would have been nominated there as well so…

I’m cautious about Watchmen overcoming a vote-split in directing. Writers are savvier than directors. Veep S5, People vs OJ Simpson and Game of Thrones S8 all had triple nominations in directing. All were predicted to win and all lost, despite winning their series races. GoT even managed to win the casting award largely based on its strength with…[Read more]

It was nominated for editing.

I never claimed it was but it seems anything and everything that isn’t extremely showy is labelled as subtle these days, probably to give more credibility to that performance. There is a middle ground between those two which is largely ignored.

Foy would have ENDED this competition with good enough material. I mean she really did that in just two seasons whew.

How is having constant nervous breakdowns subtle?

It wasn’t you.

I’ve seen more people trash Colman than praise her here. Multiple people on these forums have made it clear numerous times how much they hate her performance. And I’ve not seen much support for her in fan circles (it’s still very much about Foy as it should be lol) or with publications after the show had been released for a while. The overall talk…[Read more]

Love Watchmen but girl, what? Could you elaborate?

Because she’s good in the role? I haven’t yet completed this season but I always preferred Wiley to Dowd. It’s not hard to imagine others did as well. As for Strahovski, it is clear the academy never took to her the way the fans did. This year has been extremely unusual in so many ways that anything can happen in categories as open as these. I…[Read more]

I don’t think Stranger Things is going back to winning 5 awards when it won a single one last time.
