Snook will have to establish a “lead” presence with Globes and SAG nods first before I can seriously consider her as a lead actress Emmy contender in her ridiculously stacked category.

George Chambers, of 1960s Hit Group the Chambers Brothers, Dies at 88

The genius mind of Jesse Armstrong! Like, Kendall betrayed Logan AGAIN?!?! Was this the ploy all along between them? That smile at the end was like some next level, “Godfather” we’re-not-worthy shit that’s too much to fully take in right now. The Emmy writing win was only the beginning, and like I said before, it’s just enough validation for the…[Read more]

Woof at this episode. David Harbour isn’t a natural at sketch comedy and couldn’t elevate the poor material he was given. Both of Camila Cabello’s songs were ummemorable. Yay Billy Porter tho.

Just you. The buzz for this film couldn’t be more significant right now.

2. Tonys: The live performances are thrilling to watch and highlights of my year, like I imagine is the case for most Broadway fans and non-NY’ers.
3. Emmys: The telecasts can be hit or miss, and its…[Read more]

Horrible news. I didn’t know of Robert Forster until “Jackie Brown,” but what an introduction! Talented character actor who enlivened so many films and television shows with his presence in them. Sad day. RIP.

The original and later incarnations are all trolls who should be permanently banned.

“El Camino”: See it, burn it, or ignore it? Why?

The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided to award the Nobel Peace Prize for 2019 to Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed Ali for his efforts to achieve peace and international cooperation, and in particular for his decisive initiative to resolve the border conflict with neighbouring Eritrea.

Seeing this on Saturday! I can’t believe it!

Octavia has finally found a series worthy of her talents. Compelling trailer. Aaron Paul is really trying to cement his legacy post-“Breaking Bad.” Very intrigued with Lizzy Caplan. She was given a raw deal with “Masters of Sex,” which she was brilliant in. Elizabeth Perkins, Ron Cephas Jones, Mekhi Phifer (where has he been hiding?), Tracie…[Read more]

Didn’t expect all those twists and turns at all! Surprisingly enjoyed this episode and the season as a whole so far. Without the big names attached though, I expect the Emmys to ignore this installment completely next year.
