GOT won its first ever acting SAG and it was somehow humiliated?

What happened to the part 7 thread. Multiple threads going at once is confusing.

I think it has its flaws but its much stronger than critics give it credit for.

Seriously wtf is this. Please cite the rule where they determine category placement by “intention.”

Honestly, though, what a pointless argument. We’ll see what happens I guess.

It’s not that it wasn’t allowed, it’s that, at that time, the rules regarding the drama/limited split were less defined and, in fact, the term “limited series” did not yet exist.

Honestly, it’s hilarious that forum posters here will work themselves into a frenzy counting minutes of screentime for actors in order to determine “category fraud”…[Read more]

This show is lucky that there is so much space in the comedy categories this year.

Well let’s hope it can expand on its single Emmy nomination for the second season.

Obviously it’s not a particularly popular show but it seems to have gained some cache in the industry within the last year so I would love to see it show up somewhere randomly below the line like cinematography, picture editing, or sound.

Of course it deserves…[Read more]

I think that if it is a limited series then it should compete as such.

I don’t anticipate the category change having a negative effect on its awards chances, in fact, I think the opposite.

Oh, me too. I am definitely rooting for King this year I just thought you had heard differently regarding the category placement. I have been saying since early on that this was going to end up in Limited but consensus still seems to have it Drama.

Huh? I feel like the comment below directly contradicts that. This is what I have been saying all along…

“That’s a good question and we’re talking about that,” Bloys told THR. “Originally, my hope was it would have been an ongoing series but where Damon is thinking about it, I think maybe it’s more like a Fargo where it comes back completely…[Read more]

I suggested this elsewhere but another poster said that they had already petitioned and lost so not sure it is possible to petition a second time.

I don’t think it’s ever missed which is pretty impressive.

Fair point on Silicon Valley/Transparent but SV won’t be trying to come back from a major controversy. Don’t get me wrong I don’t expect it to catch the zeitgest or anything but given the dearth of options I think it still has enough consolidated fans from back when it was more popular…[Read more]

I think this is the show that probably benefits the most from the weak field. Don’t be surprised to see it have one of its strongest showings after fading a bit the last few seasons.

ST, in particular, has lost a lot of heat. Too bad because I thought S3 was just as strong if not stronger than the previous 2.

Really strong opening pair.

Sort of surprised that this got such a lukewarm critical response but it feels like something that audiences will respond to if they discover it. It’s not necessarily re-inventing the wheel (yet) but feels like a very well crafted entry into this popular genre.

If this actually pulls decent ratings, I could see it…[Read more]

That sounds boring af.

Is this a mystery? I am not getting a good sense of genre from the description.

If they petition for a category change, I think Sex Education would also be in the mix.

They typically have at least one left-field contender so I am not counting them out just yet. Who was buzzing about Russian Doll before it premiered?

Technically they still have Kimmy Schmidt as well but that will presumably be competing in TV Movie. That…[Read more]

Happily surprised to see Watchmen do so well at the guild so far.

That’s too bad – of their new offerings these two seemed the most promising to me.
