Emmy 2023 Recap

 

I liked the way the 75^th Emmy Awards celebrated the history of television. I enjoyed the reunions on the carefully recreated sets, although some looked sadly too old (poor Norm). The announcer previewed upcoming reunions but some them took up to 90 minutes before they were on stage (it sure took a while for Tina Fey and Amy Poehler to finally appear). There wasn’t too much presenter banter, except maybe the cast of Martin. Having host Anthony Anderson’s mom cut off speeches was an interesting touch. I was so thankful she put an end to Jennifer Coolidge’s inane speech (so annoyed she won over Rhea Seehorn). Anderson got some chuckles but at least kept the night flowing nicely. I liked Christina Applegate’s entrance response (although audience, if you stand for everything, it kind of diminishes the impact). In the speeches, I enjoyed John Oliver’s plea for Pokemon cards and Kieran Culkin wanting babies and giving up on his jacket.

It would have been a miracle, but still sad Better Call Saul went away empty handed. I guess they are the new The Wire who also got nothing despite being a critically acclaimed masterpiece. I got 23 out of 24 categories which is not that shocking as the show was so predictable this year. I honestly think that voters just find one show they watch and then give them every award instead of weighing the performances of others. I found it interesting that Succession won best writing and directing when the “Long, Long Time” episode of Last of Us was voted as one of the 75 most impactful moments of Television and Succession was nowhere to be found on that list.

The Bear is not a comedy. It is ludicrous that the 30-minute running-time qualifies them for that. I don’t find myself laughing during The Bear, I’m way to anxious and stressed out to have time to laugh. I laugh more during Succession. Lead Comedy Actor should go to who the funniest actor is, not the one who intensely cooks and worries about living up to his family’s expectations. I like The Bear, but put in the drama section. I also like Succession but I’m glad others will get to play next year. I think they should limit how many televised nominations a show can get so they can spread the love a little more.

Okay, rants over, here were the winners:

2023 Emmy Predictions

 

The Emmys are on Monday. It’s strange because it was supposed to have aired last September but was postponed due to the strikes. What’s interesting is that some of the series have nominations from their previous season. For example, The Bear has been winning a bunch of awards lately for their recently aired second season but the nominations for these awards are from their first season, hence the pilot episode nom. This also means that Better Call Saul is back in the running but will unfortunately lose to Succession (I can still hope for some miracles though). Anyway, here are my predictions:

Outstanding Drama Series
Andor | Better Call Saul | The Crown | House of the Dragon | The Last of Us | Succession | The White Lotus | Yellowjackets

Golden Globes 2024 Recap

 

Here’s my recap of the Golden Globes last night.

·         Don’t know who host Jo Koy is but he was awful. Not one funny joke. It was so cringe watching him in his opening monologue. I think he was the only one laughing. Classy move to throw your writers under the bus. What an ass.

·         Koy made a comment that the Globes would show fewer shots of Taylor Swift than an NFL game. I counted a whole lot of Taylor.

·         Just like last year’s Abbot Elelmentary, maybe don’t put front runner Beef in the back so they have to walk a gauntlet of celebrities to make it to the stage.

·         I should probably watch Beef.

·         Julia Garner’s dress was so glittery; it was reflecting on her face.

·         The trophy looks different this year. And apparently heavier.

·         Watch the PDA Mark Ruffalo. Were there not enough seats so your wife had to sit your lap during the show?

·         The show thought Suits would get a bigger response. Nope.

·         I liked some of the speeches, Kieran Culkin and Robert Downey Jr. stood out to me.

·         I got 23 out of 27 categories ‘correct’

·         The Bear should be a drama. The thirty-minute run-time shouldn’t make it a comedy.

·         Surprised to see Anatomy of a Fall winning screenplay and Poor Things getting the Comedy Best Picture win.

Anyway, here were the winners:

Best Motion Picture – Drama
Oppenheimer (predicted & wanted)

Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Drama
Lily Gladstone (Killers of the Flower Moon) (predicted & wanted)

Golden Globes 2024 Predictions

 

The Golden Globes are back on Sunday but this time on CBS instead of NBC. I have no idea who votes for these things anymore as the Hollywood Foreign Press was disbanded or something. For some reason, each category has six nominees instead of the usual five which will make the predicting a little harder. It will be more interesting this year as the Emmy Awards haven’t even happened yet thanks to the summer’s strike. I’m expecting a bunch of love for Oppenheimer, Barbie, Succession, The Bear and Beef. I also don’t know what the Cinematic and Box Achievement award is rewarding. Made the most money? The most impact? Anyway, here’s who I think will win and who I want to win, like usual.
