Dan for three!!!

The Supporting Actor in a Comedy category is a particular embarrassment of riches.

That's what I was thinking too.  Damn, there are some incredible actors in comedies right now.

[DollEyes]

DJ Nice must be short for "DJ Nice-Looking."

[Valny]

Does anyone know who the lady is that is sitting with Dan Levy? She is always so enthusiastic when SC gets a win,it's great.

[ShadowHunter]

Zendaya that dress is a huge NO. No lol.

That's "Ronnie" from the city council and Jazzagals - I don't know the actress's name though.

Yes, yes it's for social media.

Karen Robinson. She plays Ronnie on the show.

Annie Murphy has to win best supporting actress now or that would be an awkward snub.

[DollEyes]

That Bachelorette commercial was a real Clare-sterfuck.

[SoMuchTV]

Was Tiffany Haddish wearing the same dress from SNL (and a previous  Emmys? Oscars?)

Well some of the responses I saw on Twitter they don't like it either lol.

[Annber03]

I'm liking the shoutouts to the USPS, and the reminder of how important they are. 

[mtlchick]

(brings out the curling brooms)....one more for the sweep y'all!

Oh thank God!! There's gonna be some partying tonight!

[thuganomics85]

The sweep happens!  Yay, Annie!  I think she gets underappreciated at times, but she is fantastic as Alexis!

[scarynikki12]

ANNIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

[MerBearHou]

Ew, Yes!!!!  Annie Murphy!!

[sara416]

I really wish D'Arcy Carden AND Annie Murphy could have won. That was tough.

[ProudMary]

That D'Arcy Carden never won an Emmy for her role as Janet is awful. 

[DollEyes]

Calling it now: Schitts' Creek will win Best Comedy.

[mtlchick]

I'm thinking as to why Schitt's Creek cleaned up and the only reasonable answer is; it peaked at the right time.  Right as the pandemic was taking hold and no one knew what the fuck was happening, the final season was on and with people staying at home, needed some lightness and heart.  The buzz picked up speed over the final weeks and it paid off.

 

Oh Canada!

[ShadowHunter]

Counting nominations with the Count. Good to see him lol.

[thuganomics85]

Already doing Best Comedy?  I wonder if this is to not have the eventual winners hang around in public for longer than they need to, due to COVD stuff.

Yikes, having Morgan Freeman present The Kominsky Method just makes me think of the sexual harassment stuff with him, and how one of the stories involved Alan Arkin telling him to quit it.

Lin-Manuel Miranda loves What We Do in the Shadows?!  He keeps getting even more awesome!

And it's Schitt's Creek for the win!

They are talking about it right?

[Quickbeam]

I guess they could only get limited numbers of statues across the border? Because they are, what, 4 statues down.....🇨🇦

[scarynikki12]

Schitt's Creek cleaned it all up!

[Annber03]

I haven't seen "Schitt's Creek", but given all the talk about how good it is and whatnot, I feel I should probably be adding it to my "to check out" list. The cast seems like a lovely bunch judging from seeing them here. 

[thuganomics85]

Canada is getting drunk tonight!

[Nordly Beaumont]

I guess Schitt's Creek is "simply the best"!!

[thuganomics85]

Well, Wandavision looks awesomely bonkers!

Edited September 21, 2020 by thuganomics85

[jcin617]

I need Wandavision on like, now.

Same. 

[ProudMary]

OK, seeing the WandaVision trailer was worth sitting through a full hour of awards for a show that I don't even watch. 😅

[LisaM]

Thrilled for Schitt's Creek. Terrific show. 

[CherryMalotte]

Oh Canada!  Very happy for my northern neighbors.  You breed very talented people.

I'm watching with an eye to how the other awards shows will be produced.  It's interesting to say the least.

[cincivic]

Why no actual statues for Dan and Annie??

[leighdear]

Sadly, this makes me not interested in watching it.  Expectations and all.  Plus, I've seen just about all the other shows and would like to have a little variety.

Agree, but I’m just going to assume that anything The Good Place-related was a close second in every category. 

[superdeluxe]

I’ve never seen Schitts Creek and probably won’t now.

[mtlchick]

Someone found Letterman in Amish country in a tuxedo.

Speaking as someone who just binged it over the last couple months, my feeling was that it was just "OK" at the beginning... until the last episode of season 2, at which point it transformed into something special. Worth sticking with, for sure.

[scarynikki12]

DAVE?!?!??!

[ebk57]

I love Dave!!  I miss Dave!!!

And I love John Oliver!!!

[DollEyes]

WandaVision looks good. "Hot Naked Chaucer" good.

[thuganomics85]

Good news: Last Week Tonight wins!  Bad news: John Oliver is still trapped in that white void, surviving only through is hatred of Jared Kushner and Danbury!

[scarynikki12]

Ollie wins in the void!

[Annber03]

John Oliver continuing to rack up those Emmys :D! Yay! Loved him giving a shoutout of appreciation to the other hosts nominated as well :). 

[MerBearHou]

As someone who’s watched “Schitt’s Creek” since its first episode, I can tell you it has so much heart, humor, uniqueness, very defined, endearing and quirky characters, family of all sorts, love, LOL moments.  It was my must-see TV.  I’m beyond delighted that it finally got noticed and respected.  I absolutely love every bit of SC and really recommend it highly.  

[mtlchick]

When is someone going to tell Kimmel that Ollie is a US citizen now so ICE can't do anything. 

[ProudMary]

Gotta be Regina!
