Elle Fannings performance was a tour de force; she offers such a balanced, comedic, tramatic, layered performance and Ep8 is such an exemplary showing of the crosswalk she's masterfully crossing.

If the Academy for television were fair, Jean Smart wouldn't be the front runner. YES, Smart is excellent in Hacks as always; and all four of her other wins, I gleefully supported- she was more phenomenal than Quinta Brunson and Ayo Edeberi... but this year? No, she's been beat by Fanning.

This is a simple one... after her win for the first season of the bear. Ayo Edeberi went lead, and I do not understand on two fronts; firstly, she's simply not a leading lady of the show, the only actual lead is Jeremy Allen White, and secondly (more importantly), SHE WOULD'VE CONTINUED WINNING, there is an argument to be made that had Edeberi stayed supporting she'd have swept every year Like Moss-Bachrach.

Her performance in the bear is strong enough to continue winning unchecked. It probably isn't for some desire for category integrity- the bear has already faced scrutiny over it's misleading categories (going comedy when the DRAMA, in dramady is leading; winning best supporting actress in season2 for what was really a season 3 episode, etc) My point is, they have no real aversion to category games if its beneficial and Edeberi being supporting would've been beneficial.

Idk... just word vomit. What do yall think?

Who gave the best / your favorite acting performance in Lost?

View Poll

As far as I know, Olivia and JLD (as well as Lisa Kudrow) have been nominated the most in different projects across the Emmy's (I could be totally wrong)

For Olivia, its The Night Manager, The Crown, Fleabag, Broadchurch, Heartstopper, and The Bear

For JLD, its Veep, The New Adventures of Old Christine, and Seinfeld

For Lisa, its Friends, Better Nate Than Ever, Time Bandits, and The Comeback

With this in mind, who would this be for men in drama and comedy?

Note: I know Christina Applegate technically is also qualfied for this given Dead To Me, Samantha Who, and Friends (but the last was a recurring guest role)

This is all my predictions. What you think of em? Remember: There is always snubs and surprises.

The Oscars have had many examples of Oscar bait films - Films that were hyped early to win Oscars, but failed completely to even get nominated.

What are some TV shows that were hyped early to win an Emmy, but failed in even getting nominated?

Furthermore, what's some Emmy Bait that embarrasingly only had one season.

How different would the Emmys race be if The Bear hypothetically submitted in the Drama categories rather than the Comedy categories.

Was doing a re-run of Suits... and hot damn Jessica Pearson! Gina Torres was absolutely fantastic! I really think she should have gotten at least 1 Supporting Actress nomination. I marvel at her vocal modulation, so controlled, so subtle, raising it just a little to show power and command... and she acts with her entire body, to be THAT bosslady.

Anyone else agree?
