Emmy Podcast #29: Winner predictions in the Limited Series/TV Movie categories
With the Drama and Comedy categories under our podcast belts, returning guest Amanda Spears and I tackle the Limited Series/TV Movie nominees with our ranked predictions.
The top three nomination getters – Chernobyl, Fosse/Verdon and When They See Us – take up quite a bit of oxygen in every race, going up against each other in virtually every category. Will there be a sweep or will the three split categories across the board? Will Ava DuVernay make Emmy history?
What to do with Supporting Actress. Will it be Patricia or…Patricia? Amanda and I go toe to toe on whether Arquette or Clarkson will be triumphant here. But maybe there’s a spoiler lurking…
This podcast runs 1h 21m 55s with music.
Opening: “Big Spender” from Fosse/Verdon (FX)
Closing: Trailer for When They See Us (Netflix)
