Andrea? To Leslie? Watching abc.com, someone mentioned she self-campaigned, can someone explain this to me?

I always look to The New York Times for predictions, along with The Los Angeles Times. As of 4:30 pm EST, these publications haven’t made predictions. Perhaps they’re sitting this year out?

With the move to Tuesday, it seems major publications are waiting literally to the last minute to print predictions. It looks as though those will become available the day of ceremonies. It’s great, then, reading through predictions here.

3. Supporting Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie: Murray Bartlett – The White Lotus

I used to work with Gina Tognoni’s mom (Gina is a three-time Daytime Emmy winner) when Murray Bartlett was her Guiding Light co-star. So I’ve a rooting interest in this race.

Steve Zahn is one of his fellow nominees. I went to high school with his wife.

Idk if this situation that Jesse Williams is in has occurred before but based on the hoopla and how he deftly brushed it off, does this help his chances for the win? Or is it a non factor

Interesting he deftly brushed it off rather than (feigning) annoyance or anger. My take is any publicity is good publicity — yet the show or his fellow nominated co-stars benefit also. Jesse Tyler Ferguson’s chances have improved since nominations came out while Chuck Cooper’s profile has dropped just a touch.

I never understood why Claybourne Elder was in Goldderby’s Top 5. He most certainly would not have been my 2nd, 3rd or 4th choice for featured actor from Company. Hope Matt Doyle wins now!

I think it’s because he’s the super big hunk of this production. I’ve been following him on social media during the pandemic and think he’s tremendous.

William Hurt’s recent passing will have Academy members remembering Marlee Matlin. Hence, it’ll make the Academy feel so hip to reward another deaf performer: Troy.

Of these, 2012’s Anne Hathaway (Les Miserables) and 2016’s Viola Davis (Fences) will stand the test of time best and remain popular for a long time — with 2011’s Octavia Spencer (The Help) also fondly remembered.

Looooovve Betty White yet I couldn’t believe she won back-to-back Emmys over Rhoda’s little sister (Julie Kavner as Brenda Morgenstern) in the mid-1970s. (That’s how much of an awards show junkie I was even then.) Happy 2022!! Health, peace, and happiness for all of us.

For Your Consideration: Aunjanue Ellis as Oracene Williams in KING RICHARD.

In one showstopping scene, Oracene tells her husband none of their daughters’ tennis successes would be possible without her, and with this pivotal moment Ellis becomes a contender for one of the best performances of the year.

No doubt the Academy will pay homage to Ellis’ contribution to the film with a nomination.

(Beatrice Straight won this category basically on the merits of one scene alone. Could Ellis as well?)

Yeah sorry Aunjanue Ellis isn’t winning. She was fantastic in King Richard and I really hope she is nominated (goodness knows she’s so ridiculously overdue as well) but this role isn’t as “baity” as pundits are hyping it up to be. She may be playing a mother and wife but King Richard is the Will Smith movie and the academy doesn’t gravitate to roles like these for the win unless the performer is a co-lead (Vikander, Davis) or in a more ensemble led film (Leo).

Excellent observations. I’m really rooting for an Ellis nomination though.

Thanks for going to the trouble of posting Margaret Avery’s ad!!

Posters have written “cringe,” “iconic,”…I’ll add “blatant.”

Actually, I don’t know what to make of it.

Jennifer Tilly campaigned herself to a nomination for Bullets Over Broadway.

I’ve recently learned Jennifer Tilly is responsible for her own campaigning for Bullets Over Broadway. On nominations morning, she called her publicist with news of her nomination (when usually it’s vice versa, the publicist phoning its client with the information).

Also, some hullabaloo arose when Margaret Avery’s For Your Consideration advertisements for The Color Purple appeared in industry papers. I can’t recall specifics, if GoldDerby users will refresh my memory, feel free to chime in.
