emmy awards

I didn't watch it this year, but my 2 favorite shows, GAME OF THRONES and MARVELOUS MRS. MAISEL won top honors as best drama and comedy (respectively). The other shows that i love that got some bling include JOHN OLIVER, THE CROWN and WESTWORLD. Other winners included Bill Hader's BARRY and the western series GODLESS, as well as the perennially acclaimed THE AMERICANS, all of which are shows i've watched a little of and plan to binge at some point. HANDMAID'S TALE got lots of noms but shut out this year, after winning many last season. Sort of appropriate, as the show (and novel) are becoming more and more prophetic every day. I watch SNL more out of habit than conscious choice, so its wins are a bit confusing to me. I did not see the GIANNI VERSACE tv mini-series, nor do i intend to, so i won't know how deserved its wins were. Same with RuPaul and whatever "7 SECONDS" was. Also, i heard the Oscars director won an Emmy and took that opportunity to propose to his girlfriend on stage. Everybody seemed to love that moment, but I wonder if he would've let something so egregiously self-involved be broadcast on the Oscar show he directed.

My emmy award goes to Stone. Edging out Watson and Doc McStuffin's neighbor.

I didn't watch either, but I'm glad to see that Mrs. Maisel won both Best Comedy and Best Actress. Both well-deserved. I also approve of Jeff Daniels' Best Supporting Actor for Godless.

I watched the pilot of Mrs. Maisel earlier today and I'm hooked. Looking forward to catching up in the next few weeks.

When is it due to resume? They have 'Season 2' on the menu but right now it's only just a teaser/trailer bit so far.

They haven’t set a firm date but it’s supposed to be this year. And they’ve already greenlighted a third season.
