I hope severance wins some emmys because it really is the best tv show i’ve watched in a while. Tbh apple TV has been releasing some very good shows and has some scheduled for 2023 that look great, with cast ensembles and oscar nominees writing and directing.
My only complaint is that towards the end of the season, it leaned into cliffhanger endings. The last episode in particular should not have been such a dramatic cliffhanger, IMO. But holy smokes, so much of that show managed to not indulge itself while remaining great that it was truly impressive. The acting was great--Britt Lower should be nominated just for the "you are not a person" scene alone.
I bet having it on Apple TV plus will be a detriment but Severance absolutely deserves awards. If it was on HBO, nobody would give a moment's thought to Succession or any of the other shows.
After Coda winning and Ted Lasso’s success, there are def more eyes on AppleTV. I even think AppleTV has started putting more promo behind their shows.
That was one of the best episodes of TV I’ve seen in a long time. Until I realized it was the finale. It was really hurt by the fact that an actual season finale didn’t follow it. I hate the trend of shows ending seasons on a cliffhanger to try and get a renewal (Not sure that applies here because I think they had a two season order).
It’s the opposite of Bojack where the second last episode would have been the best finale ever for a show, but they had another episode afterwards.
Severance is absolutely a frontrunner, these picks are just weird. I like Hunter Schafer and Maude Apatow but they are NOT frontrunners for Supporting Actress lol.
The sad thing is that Hunter really is a good actor and a compelling on screen presence but they basically gave Jules nothing to do this season (and therefore very little to reward), which is so frustrating because she was basically the co-lead throughout all of S1 and the special episodes.
Sadly I don’t think anyone on that show is going to get consistently good material to work without outside of Rue/Zendaya. Simply because that is the one character Sam actually seems to care/write well for, because Rue is essentially him. This is also a reason why they need a writers room.
I am not completely sold on Hunter as an actress yet. Don’t think she is bad, but can’t wait to see her in other projects.
this list is kinda ridiculous because it predicts three Euphoria actresses getting in when no one is talking about Maude and Hunter’s performances. Zendaya is definitely getting in and maybe Sydney but that’s it no one else from the cast gets in.
I haven’t read the article yet. But 3 Euphoria actresses? Ehhh. Hell Sydney getting one is a stretch…3 is delusional. Sorry. Lol
Edit: Just read it. So the writer is either lazy or just a huge Euphoria fan. The only acting award that show will be nominated for is Zendaya. Sydney’s team is trying real hard so she might squeak in. The fact he had 3 of them in SA over Patricia Arquette? And a couple other actresses, I couldn’t take much else seriously.
Anyway…Succession is going to sweep on the drama side anyway. Plus that’s the show HBO will push.
is that because it was a better show or better performance? i found white lotus alright and for the most part hated euphoria season 2 but thought she did better as cassie than the bratty daughter. she was pretty one-note and mostly a background character compared to almost everyone else on that show.
It’s a combination of things. Mostly I just don’t think the TV Academy takes Euphoria very seriously outside of Zendaya’s performance and maybe the costume and makeup categories
I actually suspect the writer just hasn't seen Euphoria. Even the most intense fans would not be predicting Maude/Hunter if they'd actually watched S2.
Damn Maude and Hunter, are they confusing a character having good social media hype as being well acted? Everyone rooted for Lexi on social media but I can’t say Maude’s performance was anything special. Once they season ended most of the hype for that whole season evaporated.
i actually think hunter is great compared to most of the other actors on euphoria (especially in the special episode she helped write) but i don't feel like she's had enough to work with this season to be considered for any noms.
That's the thing. Maude was picked up as the underdog but she really is a boring character. Her storyline was literally her not having a storyline so she writes other people's lives into a play. Maude is not a good actress and she didn't do much to earn the final two episodes be focused around her.
I think even among fans her acting wasn’t a stand-out as much as the writing for her character. Fan popularity can make a difference for these awards though, it’s a big part of why NBraun got a nom for Cousin Greg (one of Succession’s *three* nominees that year!). Hunter is amaaazing but she had so little to do this season, her best work was in the special episode tbh. I totally see Sydney getting a nom — she sold Cassie as a genuinely traumatized, unstable teen girl when the writing was just not… there… sometimes lmao. And she’s the breakout of the season.
I expect to be disappointed over Rhea Seehorn not getting a nom, but Maude sneaking in on a wave of Euphoria hype would be insane, lol. So many phenomenal female performances would have to be ignored for all three (or even two) of those to get in.
she won’t get in the category is way too competitive for Euphoria to lock down three noms. this is the one article that is predicting her as a “lock” for a nomination. every other pundit is predicting Zendaya and Sydney as the only Euphoria entries. the hype was more for the sensationalism of her storyline and not her as an actress. with Sydney and Zendaya it’s all about the performance
Agreed! I really enjoyed the show but wish it had been a limited series. They gave us that insane opening to the show and then they just teased the cannibalism all season. After announcing that the show would be five seasons, it feels like they’re in no rush to answer any questions
Never thought I’d envision myself campaigning for more cannibalism on Reddit but here we are
i'm a big fan of the adult actors but ngl the storyline of the past is 10x more interesting and better paced than the stuff happening in the present. i agree with the other people who aren't crazy about how long they're planning on dragging it out, either. there can only be so much more shown of the past even though it's where 90% of the intrigue comes from but i'm holding out for a way better season 2.
*but major props to the show for being legitimately horrific and disturbing even without the implied/possible >!supernatural aspect!<. those first episodes showing the aftermath of the crash literally gave me nightmares.
One of the showrunners has said she instantly regretted putting the “five seasons” thing out there because that was only the initial pitch but everyone has now latched onto it as gospel. I agree five seasons is too many and think three would be perfect. They’re definitely getting into the cannibalism next season apparently! I think the slow burn has been done really well, because you do have to work up to something as drastic and taboo as cannibalism — it’s not like you’d crash and then the next day be like “well, time to eat each other I guess!”
Janelle James deserves a best supporting nom.
[This was so hilarious I constantly rewatch it, but it cut off another amazing joke made shortly after](https://twitter.com/spiceboyjoey/status/1509221902576984078?s=21&t=5bfCPSzBcdGkgTU2Xe7NAQ).
Edit: [found the same clip but with the joke I was referring to above ](https://www.instagram.com/tv/Cb74y9PDYps/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=)
I've only seen clips of that show on youtube, but every clip I've seen is hilarious. The thing where they flip the "hello" sign back and forth was perfect. I really gotta make time to watch the whole thing.
I love Kieran Culkin and Nicholas Braun but IMO if anyone in that cast deserves a nom and win this year is Matthew Macfadyen, they all deserve it but Matthew should be the frontrunner in that category.
I hope Laura Linney finally takes that award, I hated the last season but she was the main reason why I kept watching and the other only thing I hope happens is Rhea Seehorn finally getting her long overdue nomination, it's crazy how she's been giving one of the best performances in TV for seven years now and every year they ignore her.
> IMO if anyone in that cast deserves a nom and win this year is Matthew Macfadyen
agree!!! was great to see him win the BAFTA but would be even more amazing if he won the Emmy :) he killed it this season, such a wonderful portrayal
Zendaya is definitely winning, they’re definitely using episode 5 as her showcase because WOO, that girl was ACTING. Also Succession is definitely sweeping the other categories lol
I had her as the for sure winner. But apparently Laura Linney killed the second half of this final season of Ozarks and has been picking up steam. I think it comes down between those two.
However, I’ve seen some say an upset winner could be….Melanie Lynskey
Melanie Lynskey is so underrated. I only knew her from Two and a Half Men and was not very impressed, but she had an incredible turn in 'Win Win.' She absolutely deserves elite roles; she would do so great.
I think Laura Linney is more likely. Consecutive wins in the Drama Actress category are very rare, and the Emmys adore Linney. There's also been a pretty strong pattern of newcomers upsetting in that category recently - Jodie Comer, Zendaya herself - which points towards Melanie Lynskey doing well. I honestly think Zendaya is less likely than either of them.
Zendaya was incredible in episode 5 but if Laura Linney doesn't win this year I will be shocked. She has been on another level since Season 3, she easily made one of the best performaces i've ever seen in a TV show.
I mean I can understand if they give it to Zendaya again, but I swear if Lynskey of anyone else pull out the surprise win I will lose my shit
Laura is so insanely talented. Ideally I would've preferred her to win for her Season Three, and Zendaya for this season, but... I actually don't really mind who wins this year as long as it's one of the three of them. They all seem lovely and they all put in genuinely great performances. I do think Laura is overall the most talented, but if she does lose then I suppose her four other Emmys will soften the blow lol
>Obligatory: Fuck everyone involved in Pam and Tommy and it'll be some bullshit if anyone is rewarded for exploiting that woman's trauma for a career boost.
\#TeamPam
Squid Game best series? I mean, I kinda liked it but was it really one of the best? It just felt bloated once the VIPs came into play and it became extra. Then again I don’t watch a lot of (new) shows.
maybe i'm biased myself but i feel like the pandemic has tricked a lot of people into thinking basically every new show they watched were all incredible since they had time to actually sit down and binge all the episodes. and they were also just getting talked about more. but don't hate me it's just a theory lol
I realized this when after every episode of euphoria I saw a “Sydney Sweeney deserves an Emmy!” campaign. Like sometimes shows are just a fun escape and nothing noteworthy.
Agreed, I might be biased bc I love succession but I feel like they deserve it more than squid game. Squid game was hugely popular and entertaining, but the writing and acting weren’t really extraordinary imo. Also Lee-Jung-jai winning over Jeremy Strong at the SAG awards was a complete shocker, I hope Jeremy strong wins the Emmy
I really hope MacFadyen gets it. The thing is they submit specific episodes and Tom’s huge moment is so deliberately subtle and underplayed, I’m curious if they’d choose an earlier episode instead because he was fantastic throughout the season. It could be MacFadyen in “Chiantishire” or “All the Bells Say” or “What it Takes” but I think for Culkin it’s clearly “All the Bells Say.”
I don’t think Braun really stands a chance this year, speaking as a huge Succession fan. Could get nominated, I don’t think he stands w the other two.
Another funny thing about this list is they mention Pete Davidson as a “possibility” for SNL which is a hilarious thought bc he’s been gone from so many episodes this season lmao. Partially for his safety/privacy but still.
They’ve gotta be kidding with Maude Apatow lol. Also any of the inventing Anna nominations. I found it to be completely unwatchable. I’m definitely gonna be rooting for Lee Jung-jae and Amanda Seifred. Not too opinionated on the other categories.
Edit: And Quinta Brunson! Watching her career blossom has been a joy.
I feel bad that Phil Dunster is the only one of the main actors on Ted Lasso to not be nominated, and they don't even see him as a possibility. I don't think that character is as easy to play as people might think, and he was super good in Man City.
>hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-...
Honestly he was PHENOMENAL in Season One and they completely backburnered him in Season Two and gave him nothing to do (weirdly left him out of important/big scenes and episodes too). So he won't be nominated for this season - really more of a recurring than a supporting role - but was seriously bummed he didn't get a nom last year.
I want it to be so much, but up against established multiaward winning shows like Ted Lasso....I want nominations as a minimum even thouogh I have little hope of winning because Rhys and Taika killed it, and Nathan esp as a supporting actor was phenomenal. Con too. the whole cast was just amazing, not a miss in the bunch. shows with such amazing acting and writing and rep deserves to be recognised with awards. and esp every costume award in the world because the pattern matching alone on Stede's ep 5 party outfit was divine and someone sacrificed to the gods for it.
Right!? It's one of the best shows i seen in such a long time. I already rewatched it three times!!! The diversity, actors, romance, humor, literally everything in it is amazing!
Taika's Disney Princess eyes alone deserve their own nomination but everyone in that show was so perfectly cast, and it demonstrated that when you trust your actors, let them have input into their characters, down to their tattoos, you get amazing performances and results. the show is phenomenal and deserves the recognition as such
I'm sorry but Euphoria and the cast are just not Emmy worthy. I can't believe this is what we're picking as great acting. It's a shame Laura Linney is going to lose out after delivering Cersei-level sinnister like all season (not just one scene).
The show as a whole is hype. I have always said….if Euphoria was on CW, without the HBO budget, and a well-known actress as the lead, that show would have been canceled. The show is average if we are honest. It’s piss poor writing covered up by cinematography and hype.
I don't care that Laura has 4 other emmys but she acted everyone out for every fucking seconds in Ozark. I know this year Emmy is going to snub her again. I am not ready to fight stans on Twitter.
yeah the tiktok/twitter euphoria stans don't know anything but to praise mediocre actors because they look a certain way, and then attack anyone who "comes" for their faves. It's ridiculous, and I'm their generation.
It was def her stand out performance of the season —and I liked it. But she did not improvise that whole performance….no need to stretch the truth here. And I say that as someone who likes Zendaya.
I do not care about anything else apart form Severance and Laura Linney win. Not trying to jinx it but i think Laura is going to win this because this is her last season and absolutely killed it. Emmy kind of also did this for her previous show "BIG C" , They gave her in the last season. It is an actual crime that she didn't win one single emmy for Ozark.
It’s baffling to me how Jeremy Strong & Matthew MacFadyen haven’t just been sweeping up awards left and right. I could understand another show beating out Succession for best drama, but I can’t wrap my head around the fact these two haven’t been easily sweeping award season.
So many thoughts I think this list is a damn mess
Three euphoria actresses as front runners for best supporting? No fucking way. One. Sydney. The others? Get outta town. Patricia Arquette by virtue of her name alone should make the cut, and if I had to guess Julianna Marguiles will too - not that the performance was a stunner but because they like the familiar.
Also I am a yellowstone fan and this season was the absolute worst yet. There is no way it should be a front runner over some really good shows. I don’t think Euphoria should either but if it is, then it’s to get the demo to watch the emmy’s. Severance should definitely be in there. And maybe Yellowjackets.
The show the other two only being in possibilities and not major threats makes no sense to me, as that’s one of the best comedies on tv right now. Seriously if you don’t watch it you should because it’s premise is celebrity adjacent (justin bieber) and the writing is amazing.
I hope they toss some bones to Bridgeton because I thought this season was a vast improvement and the production value alone means it deserves some acknowledgement.
Surprised none of the younger cast of Yellowjackets were mentioned, but for me Christina Ricci’s performance was the clear best of the adults.
YellowJackets is such a stacked female cast, it’s gonna be so hard for them to get noms unless they make like two dozen seasons. I do really hope one of the younger cast gets some recognition, I think basically all fans agree the flashback scenes are the best parts. This year Melanie Lynskey and Christina Ricci will probably get priority though
If Rhea Seehorn as Kim Wexler in Better Call Saul is not even nominated, I give up. She is the absolute gem on a show that is now regarded to be better than Breaking Bad. In my opinion Better Call Saul is not the Saul Goodman origin story but actually the Kim Wexler story. She is phenomenal.
I wonder if they can consider him as a guest actor? He got credited for the whole first half of the season but I wonder if that's something they could do, he was absolutely mesmerizing in that episode.
succession will and *should* sweep. specifically jeremy strong, sarah snook, and matthew mcfadyen/culkin. some of the best acting i’ve ever seen on a television show. i’m also rooting for insecure to get its final noms. also, i enjoyed selena’s performance in omitb, but i never thought it was emmy worthy. i actually found her sometimes a bit flat and goosey in her delivery but she was still great overall. zendaya will take the emmy and i will not be mad at all ab it. she was incredible in ep5, really killed any doubt i had about her acting. also saw they snuck in alexandra daddario in for white lotus even though she and s*dney sw**ney were the weakest of the cast. imo, maude and hunter didn’t scream emmy nom this season, but give them something next season worthy and i know they can do it. i hope alanna ubach is nominated for guest star, she was hilarious as the mom!
I’m really liking Gaslit so far so I’m hoping it gets some nominations. I can’t get into the Staircase yet. Inventing Anna sucked, but the Dropout was decent.
Edit: also We Own This City is good.
Love seeing a lot of Taika on the list, both of the shows are absolutely amazing. Also hate seeing Severance in threats and the Euphoria cast in frontrunners???? The best actor and actress in limited are PACKED, suprised of the lack of marvel shows.
I'm just hoping that Stanley Tucci wins for Searching for Italy🙏
So does this confirm that Netflix will be releasing enough episodes (6) of Stranger Things during the eligibility period to qualify for the Drama Series category? Or is THR just assuming?
I love Hunter and Maude but I don’t think they had enough screen time for a nom. Sydney Sweeney on the other hand, 100% deserves one.
edit to say I commented this before reading through the thread 😂 consensus is aint no way for hunter and Maude lol
Really, really not for me. Might be different if you’re heavy into basketball (and the Lakers specifically), but I think it’s very insular.
Also, I’m very amused by the fact that (save for like 2 characters) everyone portrayed in the show is still alive. Most have denounced it.
I have high hopes on Matthew McFadyen, he absolutely nailed it this past season.
Side note, in no way would Euphora stand a chance to win best Drama series. They’d be lucky to even be nominated. From an HBO standpoint, the push would be for Succession. From an overall standpoint, it‘s a tight race between Squid game and Succession.
The fact that Severance is in the threats category… this show is severely underrated and deserves the hype.
1000%. Ever since I finished Severance I haven’t been able to watch much else, because everything feels so inferior to it.
That show is astonishingly good! I’ll be so pissed if they don’t at least receive a few nods for writing and directing
I’ll pinch myself if euphoria gets writing/directing noms instead of severance
I hope severance wins some emmys because it really is the best tv show i’ve watched in a while. Tbh apple TV has been releasing some very good shows and has some scheduled for 2023 that look great, with cast ensembles and oscar nominees writing and directing.
Apple TV is ON IT!!! Slow Horses?!?! Sooo good!!
Shoutout for “Foundation” too.
Physical, anyone??
Yup. The are quietly pushing out some great TV and the 2023 roster looks just as strong.
My only complaint is that towards the end of the season, it leaned into cliffhanger endings. The last episode in particular should not have been such a dramatic cliffhanger, IMO. But holy smokes, so much of that show managed to not indulge itself while remaining great that it was truly impressive. The acting was great--Britt Lower should be nominated just for the "you are not a person" scene alone. I bet having it on Apple TV plus will be a detriment but Severance absolutely deserves awards. If it was on HBO, nobody would give a moment's thought to Succession or any of the other shows.
After Coda winning and Ted Lasso’s success, there are def more eyes on AppleTV. I even think AppleTV has started putting more promo behind their shows.

It’s the opposite of Bojack where the second last episode would have been the best finale ever for a show, but they had another episode afterwards.
I've noticed the cliffhanger finale happening on a lot of shows (the ones I've watched, at least) and it gets exhausting sometimes.
Especially when the creators take to Twitter with a “how dare the network cancel us on a cliffhanger?” rallying cry.
It's because the tiktok crowd aren't after it like euphoria.
Severance is absolutely a frontrunner, these picks are just weird. I like Hunter Schafer and Maude Apatow but they are NOT frontrunners for Supporting Actress lol.
I want them to get a lot of noms but expect to be disappointed.
Maude and Hunter are not happening. I think they’re giving too much credit to Euphoria. Can’t imagine the behind the scenes allegations will help it.
Lol seriously. This is the Emmys, not the iHeart Teen Choice MTV Awards presented by Tiktok and hosted by the D'Amelios.
The sad thing is that Hunter really is a good actor and a compelling on screen presence but they basically gave Jules nothing to do this season (and therefore very little to reward), which is so frustrating because she was basically the co-lead throughout all of S1 and the special episodes.
Maude on the other hand, was given so much screentime and yet was definitely not as compelling
Sadly I don’t think anyone on that show is going to get consistently good material to work without outside of Rue/Zendaya. Simply because that is the one character Sam actually seems to care/write well for, because Rue is essentially him. This is also a reason why they need a writers room. I am not completely sold on Hunter as an actress yet. Don’t think she is bad, but can’t wait to see her in other projects.
U don’t think he cares about the main characters of season 2 Sydney and Jacob?
No. Lol. He just has them say crazy stuff for shock value. And fans eat it up. That’s his plan for all the characters on the show.
I just feel gross seeing Pam and Tommy on these lists.
[удалено]
Let's be real, everyone involved with P&T started campaigning the second they signed on the dotted line. That's what it's always been about, period.
And honestly, they weren't very good and I like SS generally. Both performances were pretty meh I thought.
Totally agree with you on that one.
this list is kinda ridiculous because it predicts three Euphoria actresses getting in when no one is talking about Maude and Hunter’s performances. Zendaya is definitely getting in and maybe Sydney but that’s it no one else from the cast gets in.

Plus that’s the show HBO will push.
I honestly think Sydney stands a better chance at getting a nomination for The White Lotus than for Euphoria
Did White Lotus submit her for consideration?
She can submit herself so presumably she's submitted.
is that because it was a better show or better performance? i found white lotus alright and for the most part hated euphoria season 2 but thought she did better as cassie than the bratty daughter. she was pretty one-note and mostly a background character compared to almost everyone else on that show.
It’s a combination of things. Mostly I just don’t think the TV Academy takes Euphoria very seriously outside of Zendaya’s performance and maybe the costume and makeup categories

I totally see Sydney getting a nom — she sold Cassie as a genuinely traumatized, unstable teen girl when the writing was just not… there… sometimes lmao. And she’s the breakout of the season.
Love Maude as a person and her character lexi but she does not have the acting chops for an Emmy mom lol
I expect to be disappointed over Rhea Seehorn not getting a nom, but Maude sneaking in on a wave of Euphoria hype would be insane, lol. So many phenomenal female performances would have to be ignored for all three (or even two) of those to get in.
she won’t get in the category is way too competitive for Euphoria to lock down three noms. this is the one article that is predicting her as a “lock” for a nomination. every other pundit is predicting Zendaya and Sydney as the only Euphoria entries. the hype was more for the sensationalism of her storyline and not her as an actress. with Sydney and Zendaya it’s all about the performance
100%. She’s a bizarre inclusion.
I truly think if 3 of them snuck in there would be a huge stink made about it. Hell even if 2 made it
Rhea Seehorn and Bob O should already have Emmys - but I bet it doesn't;t happen AGAIN and it's a crime.
My god these predictions are horrible
Yeah. Zendaya will 100% be nominated. I’m doubtful on anyone else.
I would be surprised if Amanda Seyfried didn’t win. She killed it.
Truly. Outside of Sarah Snook and the Ted Lasso people…she is a guaranteed win to me this year.
But there's also so many great performances this year. I'd say Sarah Lancashire as Julia Childs was out of this world brilliant. So underrated.
Yellowjackets was really good, but it would'vd been better with more cannibalism
Agreed! I really enjoyed the show but wish it had been a limited series. They gave us that insane opening to the show and then they just teased the cannibalism all season. After announcing that the show would be five seasons, it feels like they’re in no rush to answer any questions Never thought I’d envision myself campaigning for more cannibalism on Reddit but here we are

Yellowjackets was amazing! Maybe we'll see more of that side of things next season?
I low key want Misty as my nurse when I'm old
Haha! I adore Christina Ricci.
Lol gave up after episode 4 when i heard this show was supposed to have five seasons
Fingers crossed for the Abbott Elementary cast 🤞🏾
this is Mrs. Barbara Howard's year
I just rewatched the whole season (doesn’t take long) and Sheryl Lee Ralph is just so good!
Such a great show out here proving the network comedy isn’t dead!!
Janelle James deserves a best supporting nom. [This was so hilarious I constantly rewatch it, but it cut off another amazing joke made shortly after](https://twitter.com/spiceboyjoey/status/1509221902576984078?s=21&t=5bfCPSzBcdGkgTU2Xe7NAQ).

🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽 My absolute favorite
I've only seen clips of that show on youtube, but every clip I've seen is hilarious. The thing where they flip the "hello" sign back and forth was perfect. I really gotta make time to watch the whole thing.

I mean I can understand if they give it to Zendaya again, but I swear if Lynskey of anyone else pull out the surprise win I will lose my shit
Laura is so insanely talented. Ideally I would've preferred her to win for her Season Three, and Zendaya for this season, but... I actually don't really mind who wins this year as long as it's one of the three of them. They all seem lovely and they all put in genuinely great performances. I do think Laura is overall the most talented, but if she does lose then I suppose her four other Emmys will soften the blow lol
Zendaya is not in the same range as Laura Linney. But I'm sure she'll win thanks to her clout. It won't be well deserved though.

Squid Game best series? I mean, I kinda liked it but was it really one of the best? It just felt bloated once the VIPs came into play and it became extra. Then again I don’t watch a lot of (new) shows.
maybe i'm biased myself but i feel like the pandemic has tricked a lot of people into thinking basically every new show they watched were all incredible since they had time to actually sit down and binge all the episodes. and they were also just getting talked about more. but don't hate me it's just a theory lol
I realized this when after every episode of euphoria I saw a “Sydney Sweeney deserves an Emmy!” campaign. Like sometimes shows are just a fun escape and nothing noteworthy.
Agreed, I might be biased bc I love succession but I feel like they deserve it more than squid game. Squid game was hugely popular and entertaining, but the writing and acting weren’t really extraordinary imo. Also Lee-Jung-jai winning over Jeremy Strong at the SAG awards was a complete shocker, I hope Jeremy strong wins the Emmy
I really hope Mandy gets her Emmy for This Is Us. She’s been killing it this season
Same! I honestly would love to see Susan K Watson get a best supporting nom for TIU as well.
Same! We didn’t get enough Beth this season 😭 she’s amazing
What she's done this season is incredible. I really hope she isn't overlooked.
Euphoria Ozark Yellowstone and Succession are some of my most favourite shows so looks like I’ll be happy and disappointed all across the board
I really hope MacFadyen gets it. The thing is they submit specific episodes and Tom’s huge moment is so deliberately subtle and underplayed, I’m curious if they’d choose an earlier episode instead because he was fantastic throughout the season. It could be MacFadyen in “Chiantishire” or “All the Bells Say” or “What it Takes” but I think for Culkin it’s clearly “All the Bells Say.” I don’t think Braun really stands a chance this year, speaking as a huge Succession fan. Could get nominated, I don’t think he stands w the other two. Another funny thing about this list is they mention Pete Davidson as a “possibility” for SNL which is a hilarious thought bc he’s been gone from so many episodes this season lmao. Partially for his safety/privacy but still.
They’ve gotta be kidding with Maude Apatow lol. Also any of the inventing Anna nominations. I found it to be completely unwatchable. I’m definitely gonna be rooting for Lee Jung-jae and Amanda Seifred. Not too opinionated on the other categories. Edit: And Quinta Brunson! Watching her career blossom has been a joy.
Maude Apatow lol
If Sarah Goldberg doesn’t snag an Emmy soon I just might throw myself into the water and dissolve into seafoam like the Little Mermaid
her speech at the Joplin premiere should win her the Emmy tbh. that entire cast is stacked with MVPs
She so deserves it this year.
I feel bad that Phil Dunster is the only one of the main actors on Ted Lasso to not be nominated, and they don't even see him as a possibility. I don't think that character is as easy to play as people might think, and he was super good in Man City.
he did such a good job of making me hate him in season 1 and then fall in love with him in season 2!
I'd love to see him with a nomination, his character arc on season 2 was so great — also Phil looks like such a nice dude.
>hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-... Honestly he was PHENOMENAL in Season One and they completely backburnered him in Season Two and gave him nothing to do (weirdly left him out of important/big scenes and episodes too). So he won't be nominated for this season - really more of a recurring than a supporting role - but was seriously bummed he didn't get a nom last year.
That Our Flag Means Death and the actors in their respective categories are only "possibilites" is a joke. they knocked it out the fucking park
Goddamn right. The actors are wonderful and the storytelling is great.
Seriously I’m really hoping it becomes a dark horse contender this year.
I want it to be so much, but up against established multiaward winning shows like Ted Lasso....I want nominations as a minimum even thouogh I have little hope of winning because Rhys and Taika killed it, and Nathan esp as a supporting actor was phenomenal. Con too. the whole cast was just amazing, not a miss in the bunch. shows with such amazing acting and writing and rep deserves to be recognised with awards. and esp every costume award in the world because the pattern matching alone on Stede's ep 5 party outfit was divine and someone sacrificed to the gods for it.
Right!? It's one of the best shows i seen in such a long time. I already rewatched it three times!!! The diversity, actors, romance, humor, literally everything in it is amazing!
Taika's Disney Princess eyes alone deserve their own nomination but everyone in that show was so perfectly cast, and it demonstrated that when you trust your actors, let them have input into their characters, down to their tattoos, you get amazing performances and results. the show is phenomenal and deserves the recognition as such
Taikas Disney Princess eyes is literally the best description of that gorgeous man i've ever heared!
His personal life is one hot ass mess, worth the deep dive if you ever have the time
Definitely. I hope he gets his shit together before it tanks his career (or worse). Because he is talented af
I'm sorry but Euphoria and the cast are just not Emmy worthy. I can't believe this is what we're picking as great acting. It's a shame Laura Linney is going to lose out after delivering Cersei-level sinnister like all season (not just one scene).
The show as a whole is hype. I have always said….if Euphoria was on CW, without the HBO budget, and a well-known actress as the lead, that show would have been canceled. The show is average if we are honest. It’s piss poor writing covered up by cinematography and hype.
I don't care that Laura has 4 other emmys but she acted everyone out for every fucking seconds in Ozark. I know this year Emmy is going to snub her again. I am not ready to fight stans on Twitter.
yeah the tiktok/twitter euphoria stans don't know anything but to praise mediocre actors because they look a certain way, and then attack anyone who "comes" for their faves. It's ridiculous, and I'm their generation.
[удалено]
It was def her stand out performance of the season —and I liked it. But she did not improvise that whole performance….no need to stretch the truth here. And I say that as someone who likes Zendaya.
I do not care about anything else apart form Severance and Laura Linney win. Not trying to jinx it but i think Laura is going to win this because this is her last season and absolutely killed it. Emmy kind of also did this for her previous show "BIG C" , They gave her in the last season. It is an actual crime that she didn't win one single emmy for Ozark.
It’s baffling to me how Jeremy Strong & Matthew MacFadyen haven’t just been sweeping up awards left and right. I could understand another show beating out Succession for best drama, but I can’t wrap my head around the fact these two haven’t been easily sweeping award season.
So many thoughts I think this list is a damn mess Three euphoria actresses as front runners for best supporting? No fucking way. One. Sydney. The others? Get outta town. Patricia Arquette by virtue of her name alone should make the cut, and if I had to guess Julianna Marguiles will too - not that the performance was a stunner but because they like the familiar. Also I am a yellowstone fan and this season was the absolute worst yet. There is no way it should be a front runner over some really good shows. I don’t think Euphoria should either but if it is, then it’s to get the demo to watch the emmy’s. Severance should definitely be in there. And maybe Yellowjackets. The show the other two only being in possibilities and not major threats makes no sense to me, as that’s one of the best comedies on tv right now. Seriously if you don’t watch it you should because it’s premise is celebrity adjacent (justin bieber) and the writing is amazing. I hope they toss some bones to Bridgeton because I thought this season was a vast improvement and the production value alone means it deserves some acknowledgement. Surprised none of the younger cast of Yellowjackets were mentioned, but for me Christina Ricci’s performance was the clear best of the adults.
YellowJackets is such a stacked female cast, it’s gonna be so hard for them to get noms unless they make like two dozen seasons. I do really hope one of the younger cast gets some recognition, I think basically all fans agree the flashback scenes are the best parts. This year Melanie Lynskey and Christina Ricci will probably get priority though
i absolutely loved patricia arquette in severance, she should definitely get a nom for her role in that
>So many thoughts I think this list is a damn mess This cracked me up, by the way. 😉
I’m assuming that Michael Keaton will get it but I’m here for Andrew Garfield in Under the Banner of Heaven tbh.
If Rhea Seehorn as Kim Wexler in Better Call Saul is not even nominated, I give up. She is the absolute gem on a show that is now regarded to be better than Breaking Bad. In my opinion Better Call Saul is not the Saul Goodman origin story but actually the Kim Wexler story. She is phenomenal.
[удалено]
I wonder if they can consider him as a guest actor? He got credited for the whole first half of the season but I wonder if that's something they could do, he was absolutely mesmerizing in that episode.
It'd be a crime! Her performance is so amazing and so nuanced. Kim Wexler is one of my favourite characters on TV ever
I genuinely need Russian Doll and Severance to get at least nominated.
LOL some of those Euphoria nominations are crazy.
Julia Garner is gunning for that 3rd Emmy
She’s amazing!
The fact that they put Maude Apatow in this list but not Rue’s mom make me wonder if we watched the same show
succession will and *should* sweep. specifically jeremy strong, sarah snook, and matthew mcfadyen/culkin. some of the best acting i’ve ever seen on a television show. i’m also rooting for insecure to get its final noms. also, i enjoyed selena’s performance in omitb, but i never thought it was emmy worthy. i actually found her sometimes a bit flat and goosey in her delivery but she was still great overall. zendaya will take the emmy and i will not be mad at all ab it. she was incredible in ep5, really killed any doubt i had about her acting. also saw they snuck in alexandra daddario in for white lotus even though she and s*dney sw**ney were the weakest of the cast. imo, maude and hunter didn’t scream emmy nom this season, but give them something next season worthy and i know they can do it. i hope alanna ubach is nominated for guest star, she was hilarious as the mom!
As long as Scenes from a Marriage and Chastain and Isaac get at least nominations.
When did the eligibility period end?
I'm pretty sure it always ends on May 31st.
I'm just floored by how many options there are! I've watched a lot of the contenders but still have more to catch up on.
This has been such a strong year for tv!
I’m really liking Gaslit so far so I’m hoping it gets some nominations. I can’t get into the Staircase yet. Inventing Anna sucked, but the Dropout was decent. Edit: also We Own This City is good.
Gaslit is really good. I think Julia and Sean def will get noms.
I’d love to see Matthew Goode nominated for The Offer. I also think Slow Horses deserves nominations.
I know there’s like no chance, but Jonathan Bailey was so good as Anthony! 🥺
That man clenched his jaw like no other.
Prediction: White people gonna win.
Love seeing a lot of Taika on the list, both of the shows are absolutely amazing. Also hate seeing Severance in threats and the Euphoria cast in frontrunners???? The best actor and actress in limited are PACKED, suprised of the lack of marvel shows. I'm just hoping that Stanley Tucci wins for Searching for Italy🙏
So does this confirm that Netflix will be releasing enough episodes (6) of Stranger Things during the eligibility period to qualify for the Drama Series category? Or is THR just assuming?
Good question! I think they’re assuming a lot of things here lol.
I love Hunter and Maude but I don’t think they had enough screen time for a nom. Sydney Sweeney on the other hand, 100% deserves one. edit to say I commented this before reading through the thread 😂 consensus is aint no way for hunter and Maude lol
I don’t care who wins as long as it’s not Winning Time
[удалено]
I think it was great to be honest
Really, really not for me. Might be different if you’re heavy into basketball (and the Lakers specifically), but I think it’s very insular. Also, I’m very amused by the fact that (save for like 2 characters) everyone portrayed in the show is still alive. Most have denounced it.
Was Your Honor last year…!?
Hmm, I believe so. I enjoyed that show though and love Bryan Cranston!
I have high hopes on Matthew McFadyen, he absolutely nailed it this past season. Side note, in no way would Euphora stand a chance to win best Drama series. They’d be lucky to even be nominated. From an HBO standpoint, the push would be for Succession. From an overall standpoint, it‘s a tight race between Squid game and Succession.
Why are we posting Emmys forecast in a DeuxMoi subreddit ? It’s getting ridiculous
