Have they always had best actress as the last award before best drama? Thought it's usually best actor

It changes each year

 

[Zero315]

It’s good for Network Television, that’s about it.

Neither did The Americans, Leftovers, 13 Reasons Why, Orange is the New Black (Season 4). They chose fan favorites Stranger Things, This Is US.

 

[Fancyarcher]

Moss is a scientologist? NOOOOOOOOOOO

Yup. It's been known for a while. Shame really.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Came for the milkshake duck reactions, am not disappointed 😂

She’s immensely talented, such a shame it’s wasted on a brainwashed shell.

I've been watching Leah Remini's Anti-Scientology show on A&E and I'm so fucking angry at everything Scientology, what they do to those people is horrendous. David Miscavage is a fucking monster

 

[Grizzlyjin]

Oh my god, I just got it. "You don't own me" for when Handmaid's Tale wins.

Yeah, that clicked for me during Dowd's win and I got angry cause that's like the only thing I hated about that episode lol. Those music choices to close out episodes were bleh.

She sounded so awesome and smart in an interview I just listened to

CURSE YOU MILKSHAKE DUCK THEORY

 

[Volimar]

Well it is a show that puts you to sleep to be fair.

This post doesn't look like anything to me.

 

[darkwing-buck]

guys remember the Leftovers? that was a good show

 

[Bounceounce]

Reminder that Michael McKean wasn't nominated for an Emmy.

 

[JCX]

Poor Westworld didn't get anything (that I remember heh)

Thandie Newton is the only nod I wanted it to win.

 

[Not]

Aiight Rick and Morty time

 

[jfkgoblue]

HBO put all their eggs in the Westworld basket.

Also can almost guarantee GoT s7 wins next year even though it wasn't very good.

Lmao ROAST THEM ALL

Eternally this

Shame.

 

[Khaos Kontrol]

That show is fucking great and should have gotten several nominations.

 

[wandering]

Thandie Newton is the only nod I wanted it to win.

Eh. She's a great actress but her role in Westworld grated on me.

 

[Fancyarcher]

Reminder that Michael McKean wasn't nominated for an Emmy.

Better then 80% of the nominees in the supporting actor category.

 

[Prototype Viktor]

"nobody got that loud music"

 

[Not]

Well 5 days from now she will be.

Movies where she doesn't play some dude's source of support!

 

[WaffleTaco]

That was the only show I didn't watch of the best drama nominees(no Hulu and I haven't ever been able to justify it). I thought BCS should have won.

Sterling K. Brown definitely deserved his win, he was amazing as Randall.

I have BCS second to Handmaid’s Tale, it’s really that good.

It was alright.

Lol

13 Reasons Why is more fresh than This Is Us.

 

[Deleted member 80556]

That show is fucking great and should have gotten several nominations.

I liked it, but compared to the shows in there, I kinda can see why it didn't get anything at all.

 

[Prototype Viktor]

how you think she play the role so well

 

[Grizzlyjin]

I don't know why, Evan Rachel Wood is the only thing about Westworld I'd say is award worthy, whatever that means. Actually, it deserves costuming, set design, etc. Stuff like that. But the rest...nah.

Actually, I see why. It's a popular genre hit for them. They probably thought it would be a nice little Game of Thrones fill in.

 

[Dalek]

Glad Handmaid's Tale is getting recognized. It's frustrating recommending it to everyone and seeing their eyes glaze over.

 

[jett]

I wish someone would ask Elizabeth Moss if working on a show about a dangerous, abusive religious cult gave her any perspective in her involvement with scientology. Like, what the hell is wrong with you. Right now I'm disappointingly imagining her to be an airhead.

I knew Better Call Saul wasn't in good shape for tonight as soon as that happened. can't even nominate the right damn supporting actor. Michael was one of the best actors on television last season

 

[old]

Hulu has entered the arena.

 

[Turin]

Seeing Oprah without hearing what was going on was pretty funny. Looked like she had a sudden burst of anxiety while smiling.

Moss, who is normally relatively restrained when talking about her faith, responded to a comment on the subject left on one of her Instagram posts yesterday.

Instagram user moelybank wrote, “Love this adaptation so much. Question though, does it make you think twice about Scientology? Both Gilead and Scientology both believe that all outside sources (aka news) are wrong or evil… it’s just very interesting.”

Moss responded, “That’s actually not true at all about Scientology.” She added, “Religious freedom and tolerance and understanding the truth and equal rights for every race, religion and creed are extremely important to me. The most important things to me probably. And so Gilead and THT hit me on a very personal level. Thanks for the interesting question!”

Pretty sure it cleaned up in technical Emmys

 

[SchrodingerC]

Wait, Moss is filthy scientologist?
Damn it.

It's even taking over GoT's time slot in the Spring. It got a lot of hype when it was airing. I personally thought it was meh.

How much does Hulu cost again? Lol. I already spend like $120(tbf it includes internet on cable+HBO+Netflix)

 

[The Omega Man]

Hulu 1
Amazon 0

This doesn't seem to be an opinion held by the majority of critics or viewers.

Doesn't Amazon have a ton of Emmys for Transparent?

 

[jfkgoblue]

If s5 won, I have little doubt s7 wins.

 

[Emwitus]

Exactly.

 

[TB14]

Biggest snub this year: BCS
Biggest snub last year: Fargo

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Overall I think this Emmys was decent, the only thing that bothered me was Veep winning when they shouldn't have.

 

[Fancyarcher]

He's referring to the actual drama series, which is what these online networks have been trying to accomplish in terms of winning.

 

[Not]

Put some effort into it man

 

[ZeoVGM]

If s5 won, I have little doubt s7 wins.

Er, okay?

 

[MetalGearZed]

and Manchester by the Sea at the Oscars

edit: oh we talking just big drama series

 

[jfkgoblue]

Er, okay?

The same things were said about s5 as s7, it still won.

 

[The Omega Man]

Shit you are right, but I still think Amazon wants way more, they want to be on HBO's level.

 

[Turin]

S7 was even worse but yes, other shows might as well not even bother writing acceptance speeches.

Comedy is hard to pick a decent choice so it will always will be difficult.

 

[ZeoVGM]

I've heard nothing but good things about GoT this season other than like 1 episode. Did people here not like it?

lol both threads were brutal on it.

The 6th episode received by far the most hate(deservedly so, it was awful)
