**official 2017 Emmys thread** (1 Viewer)

Tbh, disappointed The Leftovers didn't get much love. Love or hate the show, there was some fantastic acting in it that got overlooked here.

 
Must've been an exciting show. :yawn:

I only cared about seeing Louie Anderson win for playing Mama Baskets. HTF does Alec Baldwin get in that category? I knew he would win as soon as I saw his name on the list. :thumbdown:

Award shows suck.

 
As negative as everyone is about the NFL these days, the SNF ratings doubled this crap.

 
ok negative guy, who then?

eta: :doh:  right there in the gif. 

full credit will be given to all of the other equally deserving nominees, minus Patinkin. Jeffrey Wright and Stranger Things guy were my favorites along with Lithgow- who tbh I thought was incredible in the role.

I didn't seen the show, but checking the wiki page it looks like Game of Thrones didn't get a single nomination in any category, right? Is there a reason for this?

I thought Handmaid's Tale was good, but would put The Crown and Westworld above it.  Have to congratulate Elizabeth Moss for her Emmy playing a character who fights back against a fundamentalist oppressive religious cult when she, herself is a member of a fundamentalist oppressive religious cult.

Jeffrey Wright's great - i wrote the Mad Hatter in my musical to the thought of him and came up w two of my best numbers as a result.

Game Of Thrones's release schedule was outside the Emmy eligibility window for this set of awards.  It was kind of them to give someone else a chance.

saw him just destroy it on stage in Angels in America and fell in love. Basquiat is one of my favorite underlooked movies and performances. don't think I've seen him in a bad role or performance.

was in line at JFK Jet Blue, serpentining endlessly back and forth to get to check in or security- he was in line ahead of us, so we kept criss-crossing him. finally decided to thank him for his work as we passed him the last time... something I never do. also felt bad that a guy of this professional quality was having to fly Jet Blue.

Fell in love w him from Angels as well. Imagining him into Hatter (which i do maybe one in ten times) was originally my way of making sure i thought multiculturally about casting "Alice in Manhattanland" but turned out to be a gift because i soooo wanted him to get a star turn worthy of him when i did that i wrote the #### out of the numbers which ending up punching expositional material into showstoppers (which is the whole point in musicals). God, i wish i could find a new arranger out here in the boonies, so i could wrap this ##### up!

They were hellbent on giving him that award regardless of his actual performance.
Bladwin sucks, so does SNL.
