Bodyguard has just bumped up to the top of my Netflix queue.

If the band had played The Rains of Castamere, I would've given them all the money.

Andy shows up behind him: "The Emmy's send their regards" *STAB*

[mojoween]

I like Kaley’s dress.  The blue velvet is unexpected.

It cracks me up the lengths that Johnny Galecki goes to show the world he is NOT Leonard Hofstedter.

"Anyone can wear the mask." I love that. Also, I've started the wine :D

Spiderman: Into the Spider-Verse should be mentioned in the same breath as Black Panther and Crazy Rich Asians.  Having a Black/Latino Spider-Man is truly a high point for representation.  And a female.  And a young Asian girl.  Amazing movie and not just from the animation viewpoint.

[Neeners]

That Les dig was the biggest one they've done (so far) tonight.

[thuganomics85]

At least The Americans win the Globe, after losing out to the Emmys.

[pvandal]

I really wanted Billy Porter to take it. Darn!

[tennisgurl]

YEAAAAAAAAAAA THE AMERICANS FTW!!!!

[ShadowHunter]

Alright The Americans my dad is going to be so happy.

[Celia Rubenstein]

Dammit doesn't any body love Killing Eve the way I do???? What's WRONG with everyone!

I watched Pose and he was good. One of the best things actually.

Cheers!  I started with beer during football, so just poured a Founders Breakfast Stout.  Yummmm

Shoutout to GR!

[Misslindsey]

I am so glad for The Americans getting some love.

I would have loved Matthew to win best actor, but I am glad he got the Emmy last year. So I am fine with a Richard Madden win.

Sort of behind so catching up on the monologue.  There was a few minor stumbles, but they handled it well.  Sandra's final moment would have been perfect if it wasn't for the one person who laughed at the first "I see you" and then realized they shouldn't have..

 

Spider-Man is still a movie I want to see.

I concur. I love Founders. My hometown is in West Michigan on Lake Michigan, though now I am on the other side of the lake.

[Amethyst]

I was rooting for Billy or Matthew, but Richard did give a nice speech.  And that gray streak is really working for him.

Don't think he was shown on the red carpet, but Billy was wearing this stunning cape over his suit.  It really should have been featured among all the blah and hot messes on the carpet.

Nostalgia is a helluva drug, because I'm loving this Walmart commercial.  

[Neeners]

I called that gray streak his Scott Bakula.

My favorite part of the monologue was when they made that dig at the movie Aloha for white washing and you heard Emma Stone yell from the audience, "I'M SORRY!!" 

[ShadowHunter]

Ricky and Penelope looked like kids sneaking around the house while they were getting back to the seats lol.

I'm in Maryland and we have some great breweries here, but Founders does consistently great stouts - Breakfast, Kentucky and Canadian.  Glad the latter 2 are only annual because they're pretty pricey. 

 

On topic, happy for The Americans, but honestly, I don't watch as much TV as I should it seems.

I heard someone yell but didn't know who.  That?  Is awesome.  

[AimingforYoko]

Damn, John Washington sounds like his dad.

[mojoween]

I feel badly for that lady because I didn’t really understand what her speech was about because she had to keep starting and stopping.  Hold your applause to the end people!

Her outfit was super pretty, at least.

Taraji holy hell, lay off the shiny bronzer a tad.

[wallflower75]

I've never heard of "A Very English Scandal"???  Anyone seen it who could tell me if it's any good?

[thuganomics85]

Ben Whishaw beating out the bigger names is a nice surprise.

[Superpole2000]

I don't like the dresses split open to the navel. I'm not sure why this is such a trend.

[mojoween]

Oh apropos of nothing, can Richard Madden follow me around and just say stuff?

[Indigo Luna]

I love Taraji's dress so much she looks amazing. 

[Bill1978]

Really happy that Spider Man Into The Spider Verse won Best Animated Feature. I went in expecting to feel ho-hum about it, but man if I didn't enjoy it. Plus at no point did I find my mind wandering like it did in Incredibles 2 or Ralph Breaks The Internet.

I use to tune into the Globes for TV and Movie but really the state of TV has moved so far away from my preferences that I just don't care about the TV awards anymore. its why I've given up on the Emmys as well.

Although I am gonna pretend Ben Whishaw just won for Mary Poppins Returns ;) Although I do have the show he won for on the box to watch.

[AimingforYoko]

Is Ben Whishaw moonlighting in a doo-wop group?

[mtlchick]

I haven't seen it but apparently Hugh Grant does the best work of his career.  I'll need to search for it in Canada. 

[Misslindsey]

I really enjoy Ben Whishaw. I have not seen A Very English Scandal, but I loved him in The Hour years ago.

I literally just said that to my family.

I noticed Keri Russell kept having to yank hers together and wondered why she didn’t have double-sided tape on it.

Again, I said the same thing!

Hee! I always want Eric Ripert to do this. 

[TVFan17]

Jamie Lee Curtis is in full Janet Leigh hair mode now.

[ShadowHunter]

I love Jamie Lee Curtis lol. 

[tennisgurl]

Al of the Emmys to Patricia!

I watched it and enjoyed it very much. Both Ben Whishaw and Hugh Grant are very good in it. And BW is just so darn cute!

[mtlchick]

I fear for Gaga's dress...she's going to have a lot of people stepping on it while they walk past her to get to the front.

[Sugar]

Just now, Misslindsey said:

For me it was Alan Rickman :(

......now I'll take any combination of Ripert, Madden, and Morgan Freemon.

[TVFan17]

Patricia Arquette did a fantastic job in Escape at Dannemora.  Her win is no surprise.

[thuganomics85]

After Tropic Thunder, I actually think it is likely Ben Stiller is a better director than an actor.  and it's not like I think he's bad at that or anything.  But he tends to only play two type of characters: put-upon loser or over-the-top D-bag.

[tennisgurl]

SO MANY SHOWS TO WATCH!!!

[Cupcake04]

LMAO Patricia Arquette blew off Gaga when she walked to the stage!!  That was all kinds of awesome!!

[Amethyst]

Danai had to pause and let Gaga go before she could go to the podium, because that stupid train was in the way.

What did Patricia say that was bleeped?

[mojoween]

I love that Patricia Arquette won because it will really piss off the woman she portrayed because apparently, a movie “based on real life events” wasn’t 100% accurate and the prison guard Patricia portrayed was all mad.

Hey, lady, whether you boinked the prisoners or not, you helped their dangerous asses escape so your opinion is worthless.
