Cool, I would which is why I said it.

Ruth Wilson, yes. The others obviously not. I didn’t say they exclusively go for fresh faces, only that they often go for them. Ignoring those saying Cuoco, who starred on one of the biggest shows of all time is “fresh” wile Smollett isn’t because of Eve’s Bayou…

Anyway, I was just floating the possibility – no need to get up in arms.

Maybe not but the Globes often go for the fresh new face. Colman and Cuoco don’t really fit that bill.

I think Smollett could definitely win, especially if they nominate LC in series.

LOL OK. Are you American by any chance? Hard to express how inaccurate this statement is.

LOL we are discussing live ratings in 2020?

Also, people may have been slightly preoccupied with *other things* last week and didn’t feel the urgency to watch an HBO drama on Sunday night. Just a thought.

Not saying it’s some massive hit but I think one can get lost looking too deeply into the tea leaves.

Who knows what happens Emmys-wise but…[Read more]

Can’t believe we were robbed of a Maya Rudolph speech. So happy she won, though.

Hard for me to buy a Levy win over Shalhoub – he will already be winning writing and I don’t think his acting is necessarily as respected or considered a standout element of the series. Fleabag was way more of an acting showcase for PWB than SC is for Levy.

Probably gonna lost point for predicting Maya Rudolph over Taika in voice over but I really hope she finally wins.

I actually would probably go with the pilot? Such a hard choice between the two Watchmen episodes because they are both excellent. I just typically give a little extra credit to pilots because they have the extra work of establishing the look, tone, and feel of the entire series and this particular pilot had such a tough job in establishing this…[Read more]

According to whom?

Checked out the pilot – Swank and Charles turned in some nice work here but the overall episode was pretty bland. From what I understand the rest of the season is more family drama focused and less space focused which seems like a missed opportunity. People looking for a space drama should watch The Expanse instead.

Also Hollywood debuted in prime Emmy season and was a top 2 push for Netflix in its category which I highly doubt this will be.

TMS comparisons truly make no sense – that was Apple’s flagship show intended to launch an entire service that they put their full weight behind and featuring huge buzzy stars.

TMS wasn’t well received by critics but…[Read more]

”I think it will be far more similar to the Politician than to Hollywood in terms of its Emmy performance.

This one is just confusing to me – I am honestly surprised the critics responses have been as positive as they are.

He’s also great in season two – not comparable to Cherry Jones at all…

Esposito would be such a strange first win for BCS.

This category is pretty tough tbh. I am going with Esposito given that there is clearly love for him individually, plus the Mandalorian did so well overall but could see it go in any number of directions.

If the Outsider had more support then maybe it’d go to Bateman…been a bit absent from the forums since the nominations so apologies if…[Read more]

Someone with more time please dig up the old thread where there were multiple pages of people laughing at my prediction that Gossett Jr. could win. I’ll wait. 🙂
