In our first Emmy podcast of the 2018/2019 season, I am joined by Amanda Spears, who has been detailing her Emmy predictions here over the last few weeks.
In this episode we tackle the Comedy Series categories and the battle that seems to be between Veep‘s final season and the second season of the history-making winner from last year, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. Will this focus on only these two shows (and their acting components like Julia Louis-Dreyfus vs Rachel Brosnahan and Alex Borstein vs Anna Chlumsky) make room for a surprise third to come in and shock?
We look at the possible demise of the regular networks in the top category, with ABC’s black-ish barely hanging on and NBC’s The Good Place possibly coming in to take its place in the final lineup of seven shows.
Netflix has been enormously successful at the Emmys…with nominations. With so many comedies, new and previously established for it to push, how many can it realistically get in? 2? 3? 4?? And can it ever win?
I know I say at the beginning of the podcast that we’ll be doing both Comedy and Drama categories but I decided to split them up so Drama cats will be coming soon.
This podcast runs 1h 7m 45s with music.
Opening: “Change for the World” by Charles Bradley from HBO’s Barry
Closing: “New York City by Day” by Thomas Newman from the original motion picture soundtrack of Desperately Seeking Susan
