Voting for the Emmys! – Part 3 (Saw Some Stuff I Didn’t Even Realize Was Out There)

August 22, 2022

Picking up from yesterday –

Of course, I knew I was behind on Squid Game – that if was something the world had seen and I hadn’t yet, but there are shows in here – shows nominated for Emmys – I hadn’t even heard of!

So, either places aren’t doing good marketing, or I’m under a rock, or the market is too saturated, or who even knows what. But have you guys heard of this show “The Garcias”? I hadn’t until today.

Okay, but I realized after typing (and watching) that, that it wasn’t even nominated haha. There’s a ton of stuff in our viewing platform that isn’t actually nominated. I’m not sure what all is in there. And it is pretty clearly labeled what is versus what isn’t nominated… for people paying attention… which wasn’t me.

But I was kinda glad, because then I also accidentally watched Aly Raisman’s show about being an advocate. And it was so very well done. She’s so impressive. I was so happy I got to see that.

Though, I was kind of bummed because it was SO SO SO good that I was starting to get stressed about how I was ever gonna pick what was best [which was a moot point anyway, since every nominated show in that category you either vote yes or no, this deserves it or it doesn’t; you don’t pick one best one].

Then I learned it wasn’t even nominated. What the heck?!

Another sort of funny thing was after oh I dunno, a billion single cam shows, there were two multi-cam shows. I’ve never seen either of them before. The vibe so severely changed, like I was transported back to the ’90s watching single cams.

I loooove some good ol’ ’90s multicams – Will & Grace, Friends, Seinfeld etc. [That might be more 2000s, but you get the gist.] (Funnily enough, on Call me Kat, they made Blossom jokes (speaking of ’90s sitcoms).

And this is where I’ll pick up tomorrow!

I'd love to hear from you! So whaddya say?
