So did nobody watch the second? I enjoyed this one as well, and I think Jordan Kristine Seamón had a better solo outing than Grazer (who was still good). Also, Kid Cudi…isn’t bad?

um! this week’s episode was so good! best yet! Jamie Chung was outstanding!

Forgot to mention, but for months now I kept stating that directing winners for comedy and drama either go to names or the series that wins writing, which is why I was so steadfast in keeping Succession in directing from nomination day (albeit the wrong episode). The stat was proved again this year, and even doubled down on the comedy side.

Going…[Read more]

What other drama screeners could it be? (actually asking) Seems to me the question is not if its from the Crown, but WHO it is from the Crown.

I’m pretty sure she’s making SAG

People only hold issue with the sweeps because of the directing choices, whether it’s Schitt’s this year or Fleabag last year, and that’s an issue with that branch being ridiculously name-checky and also seeming unable to think for themselves as a branch.

In terms of acting wins, it’s not like over the past two years we’ve seen a winner undeserve…[Read more]

they still are

I know some were saying that defaulting to putting the Crown at the front runner is the wrong move after this year, but uh, what else is there? Like if Succession isn’t back in time, there’s next to nothing. Obviously we still have months to go, but to me it’s pretty obvious what our front runner is regardless of how it performed in Season 3. We…[Read more]

I think Issa winning actress is the most likely of all, but that WWDITS is probably more likely to win series than Insecure

Apocalypse was literally Coven: Season 2. I don’t think the Emmy’s are going to hold a cameo or two up to those same standards.

Uzo Aduba is only one Emmy away from being tied with Regina King and Alfre Woodard.

Oh duh! Totally forgot about Hunting. That may have been the biggest surprise

Yeah, in reality nothing was very shocking at all. I would echo the only two real surprises were Ruffalo and Unorthodox in directing, but those are both hardly shockers.

I very much wish Snook had won, but I’m not going to spend energy being upset about it when there’s so much to be excited about. Also, I need to remember this time last year all I wanted was a nomination for her and even that was seen as a long shot. Next year, it’s win time.

What We Do in the Shadows probably could. Pen15 as well.

EDIT: Wait! forgot the obvious one: Insecure

Btw, “Alexis” is trending.

the thing is, I agree, but then it just makes the Ruffalo Mescal situation all the more confusing.

if there was one thing I could change this year, it’s giving the win to Mescal. That’s not a dig at Ruffalo at all, just really wanted this for Paul.

Yeah, they gotta learn to only submit one, considering that’s two years in a row now they’ve lost to shows with sufficiently less flashy direction. I also don’t see how they break back into writing at this point either.

Netflix setting the nomination record and then only getting 2 wins at the main ceremony is kinda embarrassing
