Disagreeing about how to approach criticism toward TV awards nominees is in no way bullying. The gifs that were directed at wolfali, that was certainly going in that direction, but the mild, harmless discussion we’re having here isn’t bullying. My heart goes out to your friend, truly, but I’m also gay, and I know what bullying feels like too, and it isn’t this, for sure. Please don’t even try to play that card.

Luca, I wrote you a private message. <3

Listen, guys, my best friend passed away a few years back and he was a huge bully target for being gay and it destroyed him. So I get defensive when it comes to bullying. I know I’m weird about the bullying on these forums which is why I’m choosing to leave. I do respect all of your opinions and wish you all the best. xoxo <3

You can’t expect your faves to be given “their moment” when you turn around and bash someone else’s. It’s as simple as that; that’s my point. Either express dislike of other wins and accept people’s criticism of your faves, or don’t express dislike and complain about people’s criticism.

I’m sure Dan Levy would have STILL had his moment without winning directing, Luca. Don’t try to come at me. Nicholas Braun had one effing nomination that people on GD couldn’t even let him enjoy. Levy had many opportunities to shine. Not similar, sorry.

Either allow everyone to enjoy their moment or no one. It’s unfair to pick and choose based on your personal taste.

I get what you’re saying but I don’t feel like me saying Dan shouldn’t have won for directing is the same as saying Braun shouldn’t have even been nominated. I love Dan Levy but I don’t think he deserved to win. Just like Braun definitely wouldn’t have deserved to win.

I’m sorry, but also want to point out that the people asking for others to allow Nicholas to “enjoy his moment” are the same ones who are begrudging Schitt’s’ moment — the only one it can ever have at the Emmys — over in comedy. Just saying.

HA! So, I’m assuming you’re talking about me? Schitt’s winning directing was atrocious and I think a lot of people agree with me on that. But this board has some stupid grudge towards Braun even getting a damn nomination. So yes, you should let the guy enjoy a career highlight with getting nominated. I never said he should WIN as Schitt’s did. I’m pretty sure we were all fine with Schitt’s getting a directing nom but not winning. So if you’re trying to call me out, cool, it didn’t work. Stop bullying the guy. I know that’s hard for some of you since I know how much you love to bully people. Also, being the worst actor on a show like Succession isn’t even an insult. But go off. I’m over talking about this.

Billy Porter having his Emmy & Grammy on full display is the biggest ****ing flex and I love him for it.

LOL I live for Billy being extra.

I love Cousin Greg but Braun shouldn’t have even been close to nomination worthy, please. (Neither were Wright or Esposito)

That’s not what we’re saying. We’re saying it wasn’t him that kicked Tom out.

Every time I come to this site I remember that Tom Pelphrey (best performance of 2020 btw) lost a nomination to Nicholas Braun and I just… I can’t. I will never recover from that. And the fact that the Emmys can’t even salvage this is even worse!

I’m pretty sure Tom lost a nomination to Giancarlo, Mark, or Jeffrey. Nicholas Braun was always getting in. He was the 2016 Maisie Williams “popular character” vote of 2020. Can’t we leave him alone and let him enjoy a career highlight? Jesus. He wasn’t undeserving of this nomination, despite what all of you say. His timing is far superior to most of the nominees. I’m sorry your precious Tom didn’t get nominated but it’s not because of Nick.

Nah, Writing win was fine. The Directing one however is an embarassment of a highest degree.

The directing win was atrocious. Ramy Youssef even laughed when they won that. But no, WWDITS deserved writing.

I know that there are a lot of Schitt’s Creek fans on here, but it’s kinda embarrassing that it won for writing when they showed those clips. What We Do In The Shadows was so clearly superior when it came to writing. Even Dan admitted that he was inexperienced. Anyways, I hope WWDITS gets the WGA.

I distinctly remember you saying that Succession getting 7 acting nominations would not happen and it was just being touted because people on here were biased so… …congratulations on your upcoming Emmy win Sarah Snook!

So what? He still predicted the best out of any of us on the main night. And honestly, I say this as a Succession fan, I don’t know if Sarah will ever win for the show. I would love that as she’s amazing as Shiv, but she’s not really baity like Cox and Strong. I’m sure she’ll win a big award for something though. She’s brilliant.

Poor Culkin and MacFayden. I highly doubt they will ever be able to overcome that vote-split in the SA category. I see them both getting nominated until the end.
