The Annual Primetime Emmys - General Discussion

[kittykat]

That's 2 for 2 on Crown Queens with the win.  Imelda Staunton has some shoes to fill.

[Lady Whistleup]

CZJ looks gorgeous as always.

[SnarkShark]

Okay, ill waste time on Catherine.  Here because her Dad, I mean husband, showed.

[thuganomics85]

The Crown takes actor as well, I see.  Yeah, no suspense over who is taking Best Drama here.

[Cotypubby]

So over The Crown. Yeah, it’s a good show but Jesus Christ every single award! Enough!

Wearing the hell out of that dress.

[Lady Whistleup]

Wow. Josh O'Connor is a good actor because his real-life mannerisms are nothing like Prince Charles.

[Artsda]

Olivia's speech, so sad for her father during Covid.

 

[wallflower75]

So it will be a sweep for The Crown this year.  You know, I really like the show so I don't know why I'm so underwhelmed.

Are Cedric the Entertainer sitcoms that well-known and enduring that this skit makes sense to anyone?

I would imagine that yes, there are people who watched those shows--people whose favorite shows aren't always represented on these shows.

I don't remember the shows but I did know two of the actresses so I didn't hate it. 

[scarynikki12]

Josh was legit great on The Crown so that’s well earned.

[Cotypubby]

So do the Emmys not do In Memorium?

He really is. He makes Charles so hateful yet pitiable.

That woman in yellow hat is ready for a Mrs. Maisel swim in the pool. What??? 

I thought someone bumped my remote over to a AMC screening of Esther Williams "Million Dollar Mermaid"

[Thumper]

Eh, I didn’t like him that much in The Crown.  Perhaps because he was Charles?! lol. I had a hard time seeing him as Charles. YMMV.

[FoundTime]

Awards show producers never seem to read these forums, or they would know to cut the skits.

Definitely a love the actor hate the character.  Mannerisms notwithstanding, he was Prince Charles.

They waste so much time with the skits at every award presentation. They should spend less skits and give that to the winners for their speech. 

Totally agree!!!!!!!!

looking that way — and i am pissed!

[MerBearHou]

I bet In Memoriam is next

[Lady Whistleup]

I think Josh O'Connor is great because he really leans in on the hatefulness of Charles. Not many actors would dare make a character so loathsome.

I'd watch the hell out of an awards show produced by Primetimer forum writers

Agreed! I'm not that much into fashion, but even I sat up like "Damn!"

[MerBearHou]

…and I’m wrong.

[mojoween]

Aidy Bryant’s outfit from tip to toe is a … look.

[thuganomics85]

Man, we are so going over here.

At least Stephen Colbert won something!  And he's bringing Conan with him!

[SnarkShark]

More deserved than for the normal show.  Good for Stephen.

[ebk57]

Stephen!!!!

[scarynikki12]

Colbert!!! His live shows are excellent.

[ShadowHunter]

How many awards are left? We are still doing Variety awards?

[wallflower75]

At last, Stephen Colbert wins an award tonight!!  Sure, he had to go outside the usual category to get it but still--and he brought Conan with him!!!

Edited September 20, 2021 by wallflower75

[scarynikki12]

Conan is having more fun than anyone.

[FilmTVGeek80]

I wish I was having as much fun as Conan is tonight! 

[SnarkShark]

No.  Don't pipe this man off.  Just no.

Well to be fair ... she's just a gorgeous woman. I bet she could wear like a t-shirt and jeans and we'd be like "omg she looks amazing in those jeans."

[Tess23]

Much prefer last year’s Covid Emmys. 

[kittykat]

Awwwww Stephen.  I know the Colbert Report is long gone but that made me yearn for the days of MANILOW!!!

[wallflower75]

...Colbert left out thanking The Crown for not being in the category too.

[galaxygirl76]

Conan is the best part of this year's Emmy's.

[DollEyes]

Yay Stephen-and Conan!

[Artsda]

They don't need skits just let Conan run around. 

[FoundTime]

And that's how you talk over the music, You just do it, you don't announce that you're doing it. Congrats to Stephen Colbert!

[FilmTVGeek80]

LOL jinx scarynikki12

[Macbeth]

No way they were playing Stephen off.

He knows this is the only Emmy his show will get as long as long as John Oliver's show is on.

[Lady Whistleup]

Ok I loved the Hamilton film but it really was just a taping of the staged show.

[thuganomics85]

Hamilton actually wins something!

[Ms Blue Jay]

My heart was split 50/50 between the "Friends" reunion and Dave Chappelle's "8:46" both which broke me.  I don't know anything about Hamilton.  bah

[Artsda]

Surprised Hamilton won over The West Wing.

[scarynikki12]

I’m glad Amy was able to borrow a jacket since she obviously spilled something on her top.
