Abso-fucking-lutely. I love Olivia Colman to pieces, have done since her stuff with Mitchell & Webb/Peep Show, but FFS she’s in like one fucking scene in The Bear! The episode doesn’t need her AT ALL. Whereas Deer Lady doesn’t work without Horn.

I get that complaining about The Bear’s placement isn’t cool, and I understand both “dramedy” and “30 minute format” arguments, but I’ll be curious to see what happens next season.

Shows I want to win: Rez Dogs, Shogun, The Bear (esp Jamie Lee Curtis, because duh), Fargo, Bob’s Burgers (although Xmen 97 is a great addition to this category), and What We Do in the Shadows.

Wow. Fucking nonsense with the Bear in the face of the VASTLY SUPERIOR Rez Dogs. Olivia Colman, who I love, was in a total of maybe 5 minutes of The Bear. (I’m not gonna argue Jamie Lee. She was insanely good.) Tiio Horn kicks the shit out of it in the Deer Lady episode of Rez Dogs. You already have Jamie Lee in for…

I don’t really remember what John Hamm did in the Morning Show that was so memorable (he was fine), but he was incredible in Fargo. His character was terrifying to the point that seeing John Hamm kind of gives me the icks (which is a testament to his performance, not a dig on the actor).

Paulina Alexis is outstanding, and I’m really bummed she didn’t get nominated. I hope she ends up getting some really good projects, because I think she’s an incredible actor. Should have been nominated for that episode visiting Daniel’s mother in the prison from S2.

Same! Even though Nandor is my favorite, I love Matt Berry too.

I’m sure they’ll give it to JAW for his side-splittingly hilarious comedic performance again.

Agreed. Both Elora and Willie Jack were great this season.

I feel like Devery Jacobs and Paulina Alexis should have gotten noms. No offense to D’Pharoah, but if he was strong enough to get a nom, so were the ladies. Willie Jack and Elora were very strong characters, especially in the final season

Only two in the “major categories” and a few in the minor, and it won’t beat some of the really heavy hitters...but at least it got something! We take the w’s.

Reservation Dogs got nominations?!

I hope Matt Berry wins. 

These nominations mostly make sense to me, but I’m shocked that The Morning Show got so many nominations because I don’t know that I’ve ever met someone in real life who watches that show, nor does it seem like one of those underrated gems that critics love that just hasn’t found its audience. Maybe the people who…

Nice to see Slow Horses and Fargo (esp.Lamorne Morris) get some recognition. I’d mention Hacks, but all those were shoe-ins.  However, The Other Two only getting a writing nom is crazy.

So strange that Palm Royale would make the cut over The Curse. 

Having just finished The Bear season 3, I really don’t know why you would call that a comedy. Like it has jokes, but if that’s the bar for a comedy then I assume that means pretty much anything is a comedy.

Happy to see some Reservation Dogs love

9 acting nominations for the Morning Show?? Jesus.
