Marie was my favorite appearance too. (And she looked great!) But she was always my favorite in the family anyway. I have a soft spot for the annoying sister-in-law. She was always so pesky and oblivious in a way that lent the domestic sides of the story its own humor (and sometimes suspense). Always felt she didn’t…

I can sympathize. There is something unsatisfying about Saul/Jimmy’s behavior in this- and frankly, the previous episode- because... well, there’s something... defeatist about it, while pretending to waxing poetic about his triumphant agency. Both the sloppiness of the break in, and sabotaging his please deal, feel…

Or a new way to stream

“Some people being upset over a movie they haven’t even seen yet,”- AVC snarked, while quoting the Monroe estate, who arent involved in the production, and themselves also haven’t seen movie yet...

I miss Kim.

I’d been avoiding all outside information on the show, and only vaguely remember news during the off-season about Walt and Jesse maybe making an appearance somewhere. I’m sure AMC leaned hard into it for the marketing, but it’s actually been these reviews that spoiled it for me, bringing it up every chance they get

It was only bad with Loki, I thought. But that whole show was basically character assassination. Hawkeye was fine. Kate still had a lot to learn from Clint.

Considering dialogue used to be one of GoT’s strengths, and got major criticism in the final seasons, I’d say pointing out how on-the-nose even a few lines were presented here is a fair thing to call out. Article even acknowledges GRRM has praised the writers, and this is only a trailer. So what’s egregious about…

Aren't trailer reactions pretty common?

Who better than the authority on this matter:

Why was she thinking about fingernails?

That IS pretty cynical. But I can’t deny it’s there if one wants to read it that way. I chalked it up to Cody just trying to be cute with her dialogue, as she’d been all film. But I also agree with the ‘naive teen’ take, and would go even further to say Cody intentionally didn’t want to villainize this kid, so she…

Stranger Things eeked in there. And it really was a great season. Could some of those performances have been recognized?

Gomez only surprises me because the other two got theirs.  As part of the trio, it seems a blatant diss

For all the amount of TV out there, this sort of monopolizing the nominations bothers me a little. Even if I liked all these shows. When we’re loving this many supporting performances, its just time for Best Cast. That way, Best Supporting Performance can really concentrate on characters who singularly enhance a…

Lol

Lead Actress for Limited or Anthology is the best race here. Inventing Anna vs The Staircase vs The Dropout vs Maid, are you kidding me? All up against Sarah Paulson! Bring it on. Even Lily James was really good as Pamela Anderson. (Sebastian Stan’s Tommy Lee was also great)

Cynical answer: They didn’t watch it. Cynical-er answer: They needed a diversity nod or it would have been all-white. (And I can’t think of anybody else for Lead Actor Comedy in the past year with a show good enough they could pick instead- This might speak to its own issue...)

I’ve never been one for awarding casting directors because that’s more business than art, but awards that focus on ensembles is something I can get behind. We are now seeing entire categories populated by multiple actors from a single show, (snubbing out a lot more variety) and I think it may be time to just have an…

Not complaining at all. Just trying to have a level-headed dialogue. But thanks for being the type of internet person incapable of this?
