Was rooting for either Bob Odenkirk or Freddie Highmore, but this is Sterling K. Brown's world and everyone else is just living in it!  Good for him!

Yeah, I was rooting for Highmore, myself.

But congrats to Brown! I haven't seen "This is Us", but I know he's gotten lots of praise for his work, so his win isn't surprising :).

Yep, Tis the season of The Handmaid's Tale!

Fantastic show but soooooooo hard to watch...u seriously have to be in the right mind set it is soooo disturbing. I could not binge watch it...only one or two epis at a time but worth it for every woman to watch, esp in the current climate.

The adaration for The Handmaid’s Tale perplexes me.  I thought it was really weird and awkward and kinda gross.  Just not my bag, the story’s correlation to 2017 or not.

I thought it was amazing but can't bring myself to recommend it to anyone without heavy caveats. It's dark dark dark.

Because the oppression of women doesn't need to happen via a facist or fundamental coup.  Sometimes, it can occur just through institutionalized sexism and the denigration of women can occur via media depictions by piggish men who have been getting away with this forever.

Women are now becoming more involved in media and are letting their voices be heard.  Women who have been assaulted are not holding back anymore.

It appears we are entering an era of revolution in media.

On a different note, I'd love to see Seth Rogan in a movie about the making of Manos: The Hands of Fate
