Well, to be fair, the show got seven Emmy noms, including for limited series, the last time it was nominated — so it’s already gone somewhere!

I sincerely hope so. The guilds will surely embrace it — as in, costume, art direction etc. TNT mounted a giant campaign for it last time, so I can only hope it repeat its effort.

Thanks!

The Alienist: Angel of Darkness was terrific. I wish it hadn’t aired so early because it could have had a real shot.

There’s one name you need to memorize: Rosy fucking McEwen. The TV breakthrough performance of the year. I was absolutely stunned.

I am watching The Alienist’s second season, and it’s amazing — perhaps even better than S1. This got limited series and lead actor noms here last time around, so I def. don’t think it should be counted out in the barren drama field. Same goes for Dakota Fanning in actress. Brühl isn’t that big a presence this season, while she’s really the capital L lead. I’m assuming she’s in lead, right??

With that said, The Father being Hopkins’ movie is equally irrelevant. I don’t think anyone would claim that Marriage Story was Dern’s movie, for instance. It all depends on the category in which an actor is competing and who this actor is (obvs. Dern had a much bigger narrative than either one of Driver or Johansson). Unless Glenn underwhelms — which I highly, highly doubt — I don’t really see a path for Colman. Her performance is nowhere near as buzzed about as Mahershela’s in Green Book, him obviously being the latest actor to win his second Oscar two years after bagging his first.

This “The Globes don’t owe Glenn an award” argument is irrelevant. They also didn’t owe Laura Dern an award last year, yet she still won (although I wanted her to win, I didn’t believe for a single second that J.Lo was taking it). If they love Glenn’s performance in Hillbilly, they’ll probably give her the award. Colman’s gone three for three, and if they really want her to give her a fourth statuette, they can do that for The Crown, too.

Personally, I doubt much will have changed by April, so I am almost certain it’ll all he virtual again — which is fine. 100% safety first.

What about having an entire ceremony in open air, with distance and maybe even masks? I know it could be difficult, but it could work — and they could do it heading into the evening.

I would say Kirby is easily that new nominee.
