Saturday, September 5, 2020 at 9:00AM 2020 is giving off real “series finale” vibes, gotta be honest.

Months after Emmy nominations were announced and this list still puzzles me. That is not a comment on the quality of the performances, but more on the road leading up to these nominations. Three nominations for Watchmen and none for the wildly predicted Tim Blake Nelson? Two Hollywood actors got in but not Broadway legend Joe Mantello? Previous Emmy winners and nominees John Slattery, John Turturro, and Ray Romano also missed mentions. With Unorthodox’s relative overperformance, I would not have been shocked if Amit Rahav made it in. Instead, we have a group of nominees with no clear frontrunner...

All of the talk these last few months about getting back into cinemas has focused on movies like Christopher Nolan’s time-bending Tenet or superhero extravaganzas like Wonder Woman 1984. And it’s not hard to see why. The thrill of watching the biggest movie in the world in a packed cinema with an audience that is eager to go on that ride can be a real buzz.
Many people’s favourite film memories are those rooted in the shared experience of seeing dinosaurs for the first time in Jurassic Park, discovering Darth Vader is Luke’s father or that Bruce Willis was dead all along, watching the Titanic sink or any number of other iconic pop culture moments surrounded by hordes of moviegoers in equal rapture. I may be a bit of an ol’ stick in the mud these days when it comes to American blockbusters, but even I can admit that watching Hollywood do what it does best(?) on a screen the size of a house can add half a star or more to a film’s enjoyment.
For me, however, the largest impact of shut down cinemas hasn’t been felt in the mainstream blockbusters...

The new eight-wide field Supporting Actor in a Comedy field brought in some old and new faces. The incumbent Tony Shalhoub hopes to win his fifth Emmy (he won three times for Monk and once previously for The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel). However, there are plenty of people standing in his way. Both Harper and Levy contend for their show’s series finales. Oscar winners Ali and Arkin hope to add an Emmy to their respective trophy cases. Meanwhile, Emmy regulars Brown, Braugher and Thompson are hoping to be the David to Shalhoub’s Goliath.
Without further ado, let’s dive into a look at each of the nominee’s submissions (mild spoilers to come)...
