"Of course there's no audience! It's the Emmy's, not a MAGA rally!" 🤣🤣🤣
Holy crap! A screen with all the nominees! Zoom meeting #Emmys ! Technology history happening here!
And it begins, fittingly with Catherine O'Hara! Her real accent but then the Moira vocabulary! 😍😍😍
Strap in for a Very Merry #SchittsCreek #Emmys
And they're all wearing masks.
Damn, these #Emmys are quite the logistical moonshot being pulled off well so far! They should give themselves the best live event Emmy in real time!
Dan is in a skirt suit! 😍😍😍😍
And I was just saying how it's weird that American Pie's weird dad will be winning his Emmy for his most "straight" role ever.
I feel sad that two of the most joy and laughter and happy tears inducing shows ever had to end in the same season. #TheGoodPlace being denied a final season Emmy sweep because #SchittsCreek.
As expected, #SchittsCreek is dominating the #Emmys like Michael Phelps and Katie Ledecky had a baby. They're finishing the full Comedy first. Lots of people will switch off after they run the table.
Feels so weird to not be able to fast forward something. Covid has made me forget live telecasts.
Now #WatchmenHBO will deservedly run the drama table. #Emmys
Finally something unprecedentedly good about 2020. Canadians and black people winning most of the awards. #Emmys
I had "called it" in July but I won't pretend this was some bold prediction. Remember that the Emmys (and Oscars) are like an industry wide election of sorts, not decided by some jury of experts. Given the zeitgeist, it was pretty much expected.
If the pandemic had hit when The Good Place final season aired, it would probably have swept the category. Very similar "let's be nice, people!" energy. Full of lovable brilliant actors. I love both shows lots. If I had to "objectively" pick, it would have been a 50-50 split.
So Dan Levy fully deserved the writing and directing. But best supporting actor, I'd have given to William Jackson Harper. Best lead, Eugene is awesome but Ted Danson would have been my pick. But in the times we live in, #SchittsCreek got a big "recency effect" boost.
Oh and I feel particularly bad for D'Arcy Carden whose Janet, especially in the final season, was a whole other level in supporting actress nominees. Objectively. Like O'Hara in lead. But most of 2020, we've gotten more laughs and feel goods from Annie Murphy's Alexis.
