There is within you

a wild landscape

that waits to be discovered,

to be seen,

to be reclaimed.

Trust me.

You have not forgotten how.

Throw away your maps.

Another Emmy awards down - our second this year, as the collective strikes pushed 2023's Emmys to earlier this year.

No big surprises or watercolor moments. To me the biggest upset was Lamorne Morris of FARGO winning in the Best Supporting Actor for Limited. Even with Robert Downey Jr. (THE SYMPATHIZER) in the mix, I was sure it would go to Jonathan Bailey (FELLOW TRAVELERS; though I was pulling for either him or Tom Goodman-Hill (BABY REINDEER). Larmorne was the dark horse.

Who are 2024 Emmy winners (and not 2023/2024, but 2024 for realz winners).

Best Drama Series Shōgun *Shōgun broke records by winning the most Emmys in its inaugural season - 18 in total (14 at the Creative Emmys and four at the Primetime Emmys).

Best Actress in a Drama Series Anna Sawai *Anna made history by being the first Japanese actress to win Lead.

Best Actor in a Drama Series Hiroyuki Sanada

*While Cosmo Jarvis wasn't nominated, he was there and celebrated with the cast this weekend at various events like the BAFTA dinner.

With his WARFARE costars Michael Gandolfini and the Emmy nominated D'Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai.

D'Pharaoh's red hand print across his mouth brings attention to crisis of missing and murdered Indigenous women.

For the show itself, I liked that on top of the reunions, they joined genres, bringing together actors from cop shows, medical shows, law shows. Cute. The only bit that didn't work was that bit of in-show promotion for whatever booze that had Taylor Zakhar Perez and Ebon Moss-Bachrach shill. I hope the liquor goes down smoother than the transition from that bit announcing the category. On a very selfish level, I would have wanted Taylor to be a part of the honour of Greg Berlanti - he

Pspsps I am but a humble moot who is intrigued by Clove! That said, may I have sum Clove fun facts?/nf

I was going to do a big master post about Clove's fun facts but sure! I'll share some! (Also, ackkk-I'm so glad you like her, I was worried no one would)

Fun fact 1: Clove is a neat freak

She was always taught to have a clean work area as a scientist so she strives to do that...everyday...everything has to be clean, tidy, organized, and aesthetically pleasing to the eye.

Fun fact 2: Clove is ambidextrous

This is a trait that she actually inherited from her grandfather (E. Gadd) although it makes it hard for her to choose which hand will be dominant that day and which hand will be semi dominant.

Fun fact 3: Clove is autistic

She actually hates this the most about herself. The reason why she is seen as black sheep to her family and "Nothing you do will ever be good enough" is because she's autistic. It took a loonnnggg time for her to finally accept her autism (like until the Genesis Arc)

I myself am a different kind of nerodivergent (The ADHD) but I chose to make Clove autistic because it just fits her character (I really hope I'm not misrepresenting autistic people when i use her...I know making her scientist is already kinda stereotypical)

Fun fact 4: Clove really loves the sound of old TV static

She doesn't really know either but it's a stim lmao.

Fun fact 5: She has a pet frog

She made her in her lab! She has little wings and can breathe fire. Clove sometimes calls her pet Frankie for short but her actual name is Franklin. Yes. Franklin...

Fun fact 6: Clove was originally a C. Ai persona...

Fun fact 7: Clove studies psychology, forensics, engineering, and memeology

Fun fact 8: All of Clove's family members have the initials E. Gadd

It's like a weird family tradition if you will. Clove's dad is named Edward Gadd while her mom is named Elizabeth Gadd

Clove normally goes by her nickname though; not wanting to be associated with her family at all.

Fun fact 9: Clove's ears are just a birth defect

It's called Stahl's ear or "Spock's ear" and it's actually pretty rare! (I have Stahl's ear lmao) Clove used to hate it when she was younger but as she grew up, she cared less.

Fun fact 10: Clove's voice claim is Sandra Bullock

Specifically, Sandra Bullock from Miss. Congeniality

And that was the last fact lmao

I have billions of others but that will have to be for another time

LATER

BI!

Equanimity by Elizabeth Gadd Photography ~ Lizzy Gadd

artist note: A self portrait taken last week on a quiet, foggy morning. I always love these kind of foggy mornings where I feel like I'm just floating in a dream world, not able to tell where the water meets the mountains meets the sky - everything lost in nothingness, yet in the silent nothingness is everything.

'Andrew Haigh‘s emotional drama “All of Us Strangers” was overlooked at the Oscars — baffling, I know — but two of its stars could enter the winners’ circle this year as both Andrew Scott and Claire Foy are up for Emmys, and both are within striking distance of winning.

“All of Us Strangers” starred Scott as a lonely writer living in a near-empty apartment complex. Soon he begins to have encounters with his resurrected parents (Foy and Jamie Bell), who were killed in a car accident when he was a child. The tear-jerking film received widespread recognition including six BAFTA nominations, a BIFA win for Best British Independent Film, a Best Adapted Screenplay nom at the Critics Choice Awards and a Golden Globe bid for Scott.

Now Scott is Emmy-nominated for Best Movie/Limited Actor for a drastically different role. He contends for “Ripley,” where he plays the title con artist who will go to great lengths — including murder — to live the high life in Italy. As of this writing, according to the combined predictions of Gold Derby users, Scott ranks second with 19/5 odds, close behind front-runner Richard Gadd (“Baby Reindeer”). Scott is also nominated for Best Limited Series as a producer of “Ripley,” but the Netflix psychological thriller is an underdog there, ranked fourth with 9/2 odds; “Baby Reindeer” is the favorite to win there too.

Speaking of Netflix, Foy is nominated for Best Drama Guest Actress for reprising her role as Queen Elizabeth II in the finale of the streamer’s historical drama “The Crown.” Foy previously won Best Drama Actress in 2018 and Best Drama Guest Actress in 2021 for that breakthrough biographical role, and she’s the front-runner to win the guest category again with 10/3 odds. That award will be presented at the Creative Arts Emmys, while Scott’s categories will be decided the following week at the Primetime Emmys telecast on September 15, but whether or not Foy wins, it would be a missed opportunity not to invite her to present during the main event, perhaps with Scott, so mother and son can see each other yet again.'

"Baby Reindeer" Dominates Emmys with Four Wins Despite Controversy

The British series "Baby Reindeer" made a significant impact at the Emmy Awards, securing four prestigious trophies at the Los Angeles ceremony amid ongoing controversies.

Richard Gadd Triumphs with Triple Honors

Richard Gadd, the mastermind behind "Baby Reindeer," achieved a remarkable feat by winning three Emmys for Best Actor, Best Writing, and Best Executive Producer. His compelling portrayal of personal trauma has sparked widespread debate. In his Best Writing acceptance speech, Gadd shared his challenging journey and offered words of encouragement to those facing their own struggles.

Jessica Gunning Wins Best Supporting Actress

Jessica Gunning, who plays Martha in the series, was awarded Best Supporting Actress in a Limited Series. Overcome with emotion, she expressed her disbelief, saying, "Oh my goodness me, blinking heckers. I honestly feel like I’m going to wake up any minute now and this whole thing has been a dream."

Controversy and Legal Issues

The show's claim of being "based on a true story" has led to a defamation lawsuit from the real-life individual reportedly depicted in Gunning's character. Despite this legal challenge, "Baby Reindeer" has achieved remarkable success, topping charts in unexpected regions and receiving critical acclaim.

Comedy Highlights: "The Bear" vs. "Hacks"

In comedy, "The Bear" won three acting awards but lost Best Comedy Series to "Hacks." Jean Smart also took home Best Comedy Actress for her role in "Hacks," fueling ongoing debate about "The Bear’s" classification as a comedy given its dramatic elements.

Drama Standouts: Elizabeth Debicki and "Shogun"

Elizabeth Debicki earned her first Emmy for Best Drama Actress for her portrayal of Princess Diana in "The Crown." The Japanese historical drama "Shogun" made history by winning Best Drama Series and four additional awards, including Lead Acting honors for Hiroyuki Sanada and Anna Sawai.

Other Notable Wins

Billy Crudup was named Best Supporting Drama Actor for "The Morning Show," while Jodie Foster won Best Actress in a Limited Series for "True Detective: Night Country." British talent also shone brightly, with John Oliver winning Best Scripted Variety Series and Will Smith taking Best Drama Writing for "Slow Horses." Alan Cumming’s "The Traitors" triumphed over "RuPaul’s Drag Race" to win Best Reality Competition Show and Best Reality Competition Host.

The Emmy Awards highlighted a diverse array of talent and storytelling, reflecting an extraordinary year in television.
