Only in a ‘wow spoilt royal family members have problems too?!’ way. The transition to villain should be very easy to pull off.

If I Hate Suzie is a hit, they will try and find an eligibility loophole. The fact that Succession co-producer Lucy Prebble created it might be a way in – HBO could argue that they have rights to material produced by her as part of their contract. HBO and Sky also have a longtime relationship. It could be clutching at straws but they’ll d…[Read more]

Naomie Harris is TV Line’s Performer of the Week: https://tvline.com/2020/10/24/naomie-harris-the-third-day-performance-helen-episode-6/

The Plot Against America collecting directing, writing and lead actor nominations! I’m sure it was 6th in series too. Happy with how many people saw Years and Years. Dunst in lead actress over Colman is a great surprise. Wish these were the actual Emmy nominations…

T’Nia Miller is TV Line’s Performer of the Week: https://tvline.com/2020/10/17/tnia-miller-the-haunting-of-bly-manor-hannah-performance/

Very well deserved.

No, she’s not particularly big in the UK either (and no, winning a BAFTA doesn’t mean you’re automatically known in the UK before someone tries to use that argument).

Like others have said though, she can still breakthrough as others have done without the name recognition of other contenders.

Strong undoubtedly gave the worst performance of the cast. Langella and Rylance were the standouts, which makes sense as they’re also the most experienced. Overall the film was ok but pretty mundane.

Don’t disrespect TV movies like that.

I love that the majority of the posts are on how well the film will play with voters rather than on the actual content itself. We are an awards forum after all. The film looks absolutely awful though, and you don’t need to be a ‘snob’ or ‘pretentious’ to see that.

Reminder that Watchmen had only aired about half of its season when voting closed. Yes they got screeners for it, but hype had barely started to build for it by that point. The Boys on the other hand is more accessible and definitely has populist hype going into the winter-spring awards season.

I don’t understand why The Crown elicits such strong reactions from people on here when it’s not really a provocative show. It consistently gets overhyped then overly criticised when it doesn’t meet those unrealistic expectations. It will continue to be a good, glossy depiction of the Royal Family.

T’Nia needs to outright lead the next season (assuming it gets renewed).

The Queen’s Gambit is coming. I have a feeling – series and limited actress.

Hannah Waddingham is brilliant in this.

We want Natalie Dormer to replace her. Make it happen Apple.

This sounds like a mess – poor Tobias. ‘Dilemma of the episode’ is the new ‘case of the week’ people.

Every vote-splitting scenario should be treated on a case by case basis. No comparison fits perfectly – not even the ‘newcomer passion’ narrative necessarily works in Corrin’s favour because Gillian has more going for her than Cox/Oh/Gossett Jr etc did. Also, watching the season may not even help.

Okonedo should be locked for a guest actress nomination whatever happens.

His impression of Tarrant was absolutely spot on, and more deserving of recognition than a lot of the people that did get ‘dramatic characterisation’. I’m personally bored of emotional scenes and big moments being prerequisites of a worthy performance. Quiz not being a priority is the main issue for Sheen.

It’s a very reductive explanation. I wouldn’t say voters didn’t like Holly Hunter’s performance in Succession because she wasn’t nominated for season 2 for example. Hunter was essentially a guest with too many episodes to compete as such – this was also the case for McTeer in season 2.

Then when you take season 3 into consideration, it’s only…[Read more]
